The CONDITIONED EXISTENCE

Agent Smith: "I must get free, and in this mind is the key, my key."

From: The Matrix

Due to the mind's ignorance of its true nature, all sentient beings are caught in the conditioned existence. The acceptance of the existence of two different entities inside the human body, which actually "think" and "feel" is again, Conditional Existence. Why do people talk about thinking with one's mind and then "thinking" with one's heart? One's heart is meant to pump one's blood and not "think"! Conditioned existence or confusion in love arises because unenlightened mind works like an eye; it sees only the outer world and not itself. As the experiencer does not recognize itself behind the experiences, one then has no center, charges after one’s passing impressions, assumes subjective experience to be real, and in the end suffers because love is impermanent. This in turn creates what we can define as emotional disturbances.

The tricky point with disturbing emotions is that for a long time one considers their transient plays to be real and acts upon them. And this is the point where one needs to stop and retrospect and look for the "key" to free one's mind from them. And the key to "your" freedom is "your" key and is embedded in "your" mind. All you need to do is to let your mind do the thinking and let your heart do the pumping. And then, like in a GIS map, as teh viewing space becomes narrow, you tend to ignore all the images outside your viewing space. The process is complicated but simple and directs you into the right direction. The direction in which lies "your" freedom.
