And that emotional attachment is always linked to a judgemental thought... which is always connected to a sentence (a string of words)... which always has come from an *outsider*... who passed that sentence (often as a lifetime sentence)... onto the person.... who now has that emotional attachment. So one does not cause the attachment oneself, the attachment is always stuck to us... attached with a very special thumbtack... called 'ego'. So we have to see that attachments are originally stuck to us from the outside by external perpetrators, who want us to believe that that we did it ourselves... it is very clever... The perpetrators now think that they can go 'scot-free. So do you see that it is attachments are not at all connected to 'I', the original and authentic subject of your being? The word 'ego', (which entails separateness - as distinct from 'I' - which is based in unity) the word 'ego' is passed along by the person who is passing a sentence to another person, to make the "I" scarce, and replace the emptiness with a pseudo identity under the name of 'ego'... On purpose it is called ego so that the recipient will think it is their real 'I'. The real "I" now retreats to a safe spot... .. If we are lucky, 'I' will distantiate itself..., retreat. You will find it energy wise, about one to two feet above and behind a person's head... 'Awareness' is its sense faculty... That is when we are not hurt too badly. .. If we are not so lucky, in many cases the 'I' shrinks energy wise and hides behind physical organs: the heart, the throat, underneath the diaphragm, between the epiphysis and hypophysis inside the head, etc. (there are seven spots), surrounded by a web of stressed nerve structures and musculature... (Constriction in the chest, lump in the throat, tensions in the head, intestinal stress, tight perineum, stressed liver-pancreas, stressed sexual organ functionality) All this depending on where the hurt was intended to be most hurtful or traumatic. So 'our' stresses are brought about by outside forces (humans) intended to maim life and freedom in a physical sense, at moments when the perpetrators are larger than you are - bodily or in age. > Now... The opposite of Love (Hate) ..... > Hmmmmmm. I hate so few, but I do still have > reactions to somebody's words, behaviour, actions... > I think this is Hate.... It is pure emotional reaction... Hate is not yours -again- ... Hate comes with those stresses in nerves and musculature, it also has been implanted. > Hate ... and always an Ego response... > Not our true essence. Right!!!

What more can I tell you... > Love makes sense now..... > And quite happily I can say I love you, Wim! > (oops, since happy was attached, was it an emotion??) Like unconditional Love, there is at once, unconditional Being, unconditional Truth, unconditional Bliss. Ananda (from Sat-Chit-Ananda) is Love and Bliss intertwined and concurrent. When all our senses are purified, that is employed without the external attachments and conditionalities, the instances of happiness and the more superficial (meant positively) expressions of love are authentic preludes to Bliss/Love > Aw, so there is another question, > Is happy an emotion or just purity...? > It is an acceptance within that makes me happy > to share the true expression of Love. Yes, yes Love, Wim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
