He’s working through a tough process that’s got him feeling bad. Of course the masters of emotion and the heart would be a good choice to help and support him through that process.
Samu! Be cool with my Kartikeya’s star system please -_-
Imagine the thing as pretty much what psychos(therapists) are doing: most of the time, they (we) use supportive therapies… before switching to poking/challenging ones.
I doubt that your Senpai would have launched all those intercession tags and meditations if they were so insignificant for facing one’s own self… They are not touristic spaceships.
Often is much better to have a clear picture of whats happening by not adding other “ingredients” to the mix
As I said, just meditate… a lot…
Welcome whatever shit comes out by creating space around it (by becoming aware of the emptiness that surrond that particular emotion, thought, sensation…)
In this way you gradually let it go and best of all regain your natural perspective
Then you’ll find yourself deeper, something else appears… just repeat the above
Yep… but may not apply to those who haven’t waited to have a magnificent iceberg tag before diving into SLR as an audio field (plus, many folks from many countries are currently unable to buy anything from the shop… but PayPal is a secure option, so I respect SM’s decision).
Same goes for the second line (about meditating).
Facing the self also implies to acknowledge one’s own scumbagness (excuse my French… talking only about myself btw. Yes, I’ve faced pretty much myself and my pumping ego until now, way enough not to pretend to be a flawless saint or unique source of accurate info), to see what goes on elsewhere (learning from others is included in facing the self… nobody pumps any info in you, unless you actively choose to participate)…
… why elsewhere too?
Could it be because it can avoid or reduce the chances to insult X or Y group/people out of nowhere, just for the fun of insulting? Plus, the more we insult or despise X or Y group/people… well… sorry to burst some folks’ balloon, but this simply means (most of the time) that we’re trying to repress our own tendencies that we have unpleasantly detected - just like a mirror - in the X or Y group/people in question :)) Bases of human psychology.
Akkar, nothing against you. I (my ego) just used your post as a table to write, counting on your maturity.
