Your inner voice can create suffering from "summary" of The Untethered Soul by Michael A. Singer

When you hear that voice inside your head, what do you hear? Is it positive and uplifting, or is it critical and judgmental? Most of us have an inner voice that never seems to stop talking. It narrates our lives, offering opinions and commentary on everything we do. This inner voice can create suffering when it becomes relentless in its criticism and negativity. The problem with this inner voice is that we often mistake it for our true self. We identify with the thoughts and beliefs it presents to us, allowing them to dictate our emotions and behavior. This can lead to a constant state of anxiety and unhappiness as we listen to the never-ending stream of negativity coming from within. The truth is, our inner voice is not who we are. It is simply a collection of past experiences, fears, and insecurities that have accumulated over time. When we allow this voice to control us, we give power to our past and prevent ourselves from living fully in the present moment. To break free from this cycle of suffering, we must learn to observe our inner voice without getting caught up in its stories. By developing a sense of detachment from our thoughts, we can begin to see them for what they are - just passing phenomena that do not define us. When we can step back and witness our inner voice with curiosity and compassion, we create space for a deeper sense of peace and clarity to emerge. We realize that we are not the voice in our head, but the one who is listening to it. This shift in perspective allows us to break free from the grip of our thoughts and experience true liberation from suffering. So the next time you hear that familiar voice inside your head, remember that it is not who you are. You have the power to choose how you respond to it, and in doing so, you can find freedom from the suffering it creates. By cultivating awareness and compassion towards your inner voice, you can transform it from a source of pain into a gateway to inner peace and happiness.
