VOICE OF MIND OR CONSCIENCE?

How can we distinguish…

the chatter of Mind…

from the urging of Conscience?

It is difficult to tell…

BECAUSE our desires are ever…

trying to get the better of us.

WHAT WE WANT

is not always good for us.

WHAT IS BEST FOR US

is not what we always want.

RESULT…

when a desire arises

Both voices can be heard ….

HOWEVER if we are honest

we can tell the DIFFERENCE

BETWEEN Mind and Inner Voice.

We are told that…

the inner voice or Conscience…

which most often alerts us…

is the VOICE OF GOD.

BUT dragged by desire…

the mind contradicts…

the Conscience’s right decision.

THE CONSCIENCE CAUTIONS:

‘Don’t do this…it is unsafe.’

BUT the mind…egged on by the Ego

counters with…

‘No harm in tasting/enjoying

You are human after all…’

and so on.

When we shut up the Conscience

and indulge in wrong action…

We are later overcome with…

Regret…guilt…even shame or anxiety.

THIS IS A SURE SIGN…

we did NOT heed the INNER VOICE

And submitted to desires of the Mind.

If we refuse to take heed…

the knocks and blows…

of the outside world will effectively

teach…the difference between…

Lure of Mind…

and Voice of Conscience!!!
