“There’s no way you will ever fully understand life conceptually so answers are made up. Only in the space of silence can you listen to what the moments of life have to say without making up answers…
The more attachment there is to your given name, the more this creates a delusional self. When this is exposed it doesn’t lead to knowing who you are, it leads to an awareness of who you are not…
When there’s not the constant push or pull to fulfill some self-satisfying pleasure, the mind settles and the Universe works with your higher frequency for its betterment…
It’s the selfish view of satisfying “I” that keeps you from the vision of seeing your own light. This vision of light only occurs when your view comes from looking inward…
The conditioned mind creates a view based on unconscious wanting. It’s difficult to break this because most of what is done reinforces this unconsciousness; a conscious mind is simply aware of awareness… “

In this episode, Michael Cupo talks about the Principles of The Conditioned Mind and other thoughts in between!
Michael Cupo was born in Newark NJ in 1958 and he was one of six children. There was always plenty of love in his life, but it seemed he always felt like something was missing.
Although he had every opportunity a person could want, for some reason he always made decisions that weren't conducive to his well being.
Michael started using alcohol, drugs, and gambling at the age of thirteen and this continued until June of 1987 which is when it seemed like his life went in a completely different direction.
He got married, bought a house, and had two children, although by society’s standards his life was seen as a success, something was still missing. That's why he said it seemed like because his life was only better on the material plain; he still had something in him that didn’t allow hi, to enjoy life. He have since come to understand what this something was.
His struggles with life were all self inflicted, mainly because of the missing ingredient of love in his life; not the love he was given, but the ability to give love. This is what led Michael to the writing of his book “It’s Monday Only in Your Mind: You Are Not Your Thoughts.” What he has come to understand is nothing new, but it's unique in the way that he sees it.
What he sees is at such a practical level that anyone who thinks they are not getting the most out of their life will be able to understand it. He has since found the peace he always sought and he has come to understand that it was always there, he just didn’t know it. Michael knows it today and it is why he shares it with others.
