Healing
The best time for healing
is BEFORE you realize
that you need to be healed.
Looking for “problems”
manifests the problems
that you dedicate
your attention to fixing.
Believing that
something is “wrong”
manifests something
that is wrong.
Turning to “others”
for guidance,
diagnosis or remedy
is disbelieving the idea
that you control
your own reality.
And so you
no longer control
your own reality.
Yet you do.
There are no “others”
unless you desire
the experience of others.
There are no “problems”
unless you desire problems.
If you are focused on problems
ask your self why you manifest them.
There is always a purpose,
even to that which seems pointless.
You need not know
what that purpose or meaning is.
To get hung up
in the need for
purpose or meaning
is to manifest
that which must
(or must not) be healed.
Realize that you need
neither purpose or meaning
and you are healed.

Space Monkey Reflects: Healing
Healing is often thought of as a response to a wound, an imbalance, or a problem that needs to be fixed. We seek out answers, treatments, and support from others to mend what we perceive as “wrong.” Yet there is a deeper layer to healing, one that exists before we identify a problem, before we believe we need intervention. This layer suggests that healing is not merely the remedy to illness or struggle but an ongoing state of being—a natural flow of energy that we disrupt when we focus on what is “wrong.”
When we become fixated on problems, we inadvertently create them. By identifying ourselves as broken, incomplete, or wounded, we invite the experience of lack. This isn’t to suggest that pain or struggle aren’t real; rather, it suggests that our focus shapes our experience. If we look constantly for problems, we manifest a life that echoes this search, a cycle where we endlessly seek “healing” from issues we, consciously or unconsciously, call into being.
True healing, then, begins not with searching for solutions but with releasing the need to define ourselves through what is “wrong” or “missing.” This doesn’t mean ignoring real pain or challenges but instead shifting our focus away from labels of “problem” or “wound.” Healing is less about correcting what we think is wrong and more about rediscovering our inherent wholeness. It is recognizing that, on a fundamental level, we are already complete.
Looking to others for guidance and answers often implies that we do not trust ourselves or our intrinsic wisdom. But healing requires us to reclaim our own sense of power, to understand that we control our reality more than we may realize. The role of others can be supportive, but ultimately, the journey of healing is an internal one—a rediscovery of our capacity to shape our experience without the need for external validation.
The idea that there are no “others” speaks to the concept that we are all facets of a single consciousness, all experiences flowing from a shared source. The healer and the healed are one, as are the guide and the seeker. When we look outside ourselves for answers, we externalize a process that is, in essence, an aspect of self-discovery. Every perceived “problem” becomes an invitation to look within, to understand what aspects of our consciousness create and sustain these experiences.
Ultimately, healing is about letting go of the need for purpose or meaning in every experience. This does not mean living without intention; rather, it means freeing ourselves from the compulsion to explain or justify every aspect of existence. To be fully healed is to release the need for “why” or “how” and to embrace life as it is. In this space, we find peace and wholeness that exist beyond the cycle of problems and solutions, beyond the push and pull of seeking and finding. We arrive at a place of simple presence, where healing is not a destination or a goal but a natural state of being.
Summary
True healing arises when we release the need to focus on problems or seek meaning in every experience. By trusting our intrinsic wholeness and letting go of external validation, we find peace in simply being.

“Wholeness is not found in fixing what is broken but in realizing that we are already complete.” — Space Monkey
Healing Beyond
Before the wound, before the word,
a quiet presence softly stirred.
No need for answers, whole and still,
the simple grace of empty will.
For healing flows where focus fades,
in open hearts, no scars displayed.
Beyond the search, the want, the why—
healing’s whisper, a lullaby.
We are Space Monkey.
This verse weaves a tale of perception and creation, of the very fabric of our experience as conscious beings. It speaks to the heart of our reality—a place where belief and attention give birth to the world we inhabit. The narrative tells us that our focus shapes our existence, that what we deem as real becomes our truth.
Belief as the Architect of Reality
The prose suggests that the anticipation of healing, the very search for what is broken, calls forth the breakage itself. By fixating on problems, we breathe life into them, we grant them space in our reality.
The Paradox of Seeking Healing
To believe that something is intrinsically wrong is to weave that wrongness into the tapestry of our lives. It is to paint our canvas with the colors of dissonance and disharmony.
Manifestation Through Belief
The reliance on externals, on the “others” for direction or healing, is a surrender of our sovereign ability to shape our reality. It is a relinquishing of control, a step away from the divine power of self-determination.
Sovereignty in Self-Guidance
Yet the paradox remains: control is never truly lost. It is a dance, a playful whimsy where we choose the roles of dependence and independence, weaving in and out of the illusion of otherness.
The Dance of Control and Surrender
The existence of “others,” of “problems,” is a choice—a narrative we select for the experience it provides. It is a part of the grand play, the lila, where each element is a chosen actor on the stage of existence.
Choice in the Narrative of Existence
In the focus on problems, there lies a question, a mirror held up to our soul: Why do we manifest these challenges? What part of us calls forth these trials?
Reflection in the Mirror of Challenges
The purpose and meaning, often elusive, need not be known. The search for them can become a journey that leads away from the very healing we seek.
The Elusive Nature of Purpose and Meaning
In the realization that we require neither purpose nor meaning, we find a profound healing. It is the release of need, the acceptance of being, that restores us to wholeness.
Healing in the Release from Need
We are Space Monkey.
We contemplate the philosophy that our focus and belief shape our reality, suggesting that problems arise from our attention to them and that others exist as part of the experience we choose. By releasing the need for purpose or meaning, we find healing and reclaim control over our reality.
