Stop Depression Now

THE problem with depression is that you go to some one who is also depressed and does not even know themselves...have you ever seen the Sopranos?

In it Sopranos himself sees a Psychotherapist and she in turn is shown seeing her own Psychotherapist ...something is wrong here but it is very common!

How can you help someone who is depressed when you yourself are depressed and need help?

How can someone help you when they can't even help themselves?

Depression cannot be won by the traditional means because it is a cluster of thoughts, which you make stronger by holding on it, fighting it with drugs and therapy...it only makes it stronger. The ego is made stronger by attention , so if you are depressed, taking about it is not going to help, you may get temporary relief , but it comes back twice as strong!

The key to destroying depression is finding "who is depressed?" that is right -that simple line is the solution, who is the one that is depressed?

It is very simple! I ask you "who is depressed?" And you say "I am" and I will say "Who are you" And you will say "I am Jane" And I will say if Jane is your name. Who are you?

Surely you can't be your name, who is the owner of the name and you will say this body is? And I will say m if you cut your limbs off, will you say "I have been cut off?" Then surely you can't be this body and if you are this body you would not be aware of the body, yet you are! You know it is there

Then you say ok" I can't be the body". I am my mind And I will say "you cant be your thoughts, if you were your mind, you would be the depression or you thoughts, but you are not that because every second , a new thought comes in- are you that too"

Well then you will say "I know I exist--who am I don't know"

This is the essence the teaching; I will take the rest of the book to explain it to you

It starts with a dream In dream who dreams? Is it the character in the dream or the dreamer? The answer is the dreamer, the character in the dream even though he/she may be exactly like you the dreamer is acting in the dream, the dream is preset, preordained and the character is moving about it like it is the doer, when we know she is not the doer, there is nothing she can do to change the course of the dream, things just happen and she is a charter in it! But she is not real by any means That is why when you have a bad dream you wake up and say "Thank God" it was all a dream

Well fact number one

This waking state is also a dream. A very long, more realistic dream. With logic and reason. more so t0o fool you, and until you find the real you, the dream will never end, you will born and die, over and over and over until you understand that this is all a dream and I have no part to play in it

What can we learn from the dream?

The feelings, thoughts in the dream are not real

The dreamer and the characters in the dream are also not real- in other words You don't exist! You the "I" is a non existent entity-a collection of thoughts that you claim as your own. "You" the body/ mind does not exist...in fact the real you has nothing to do with this body and mind you call "James"....and that is why you are depressed, you are holding on to the depression thought and saying that it is yours!

And all those people you worry about also don't exist! In the dream, you are looking and talking to those you love, when you awake, where did they go?

They never existed! You (the dreamer) projected them and took them as real!

Is there any wonder why you are suffering? Is there a reason to suffer? It is only a thought that you are holding onto!

All the hate and even love! They are not real, yet when you hate someone, you are taking the "Hate thought" and holding onto it-making it real

I always say what separates two people is just a thought! Which is not real!

Everything is preordained so why worry

Everything is just happening

How does this relate to depression...if the thoughts are not yours why get depressed over them?

If things are fixed why try to change your life, why worry?

Why fear? Why desire?

It boils down to acceptance. That you are everything and perfect as you are! there is absolutely nothing that has to be changed...all you need to do is stop identifying with the body/mind you have believed to be yourself, very simple....in this book I will show you how to make the mind subtle and get rid of this belief....the result is peace and less stress without the meds etc

And I will say, we are on the right path!

Find out that you are and depression goes, thoughts go body and mind stays quiet and the thought that is causing the depression goes

Rather simple but yet the most difficult thing to do

I guess I write to say, there is another alternative that does not need a therapist or pills! It might not be for most, but if you have tried it all and cant get rid of the depressing thoughts or abusive thoughts, maybe you should start but enquiring "who is depressed?"
