Guest guest Posted July 9, 2001 Report Share Posted July 9, 2001 >> Not so much worried that someone will present me with an idea that differs from mine..... but that I am so easily swayed...like a leaf blowing in the wind, tossing me here and there.... This is why I feel I need to unattach myself to all ideas and beliefs and just listen to the voice within.. << Ah, yes, Lynette, me also. I have only recently realized how very easily influenced I am. Sometimes it is great (as when listening to wonderful teachings about something I care about and believe in), and sometimes it is really trying (as when I am being presented with the latest telephone marketing order). I have gotten much better at saying, "No thank you; I'm not interested." Of course, I only say this to telephone marketers, and work on cultivating an ever closer connection to the small still voice within. I am also coming even more to appreciate the significance of satsang for the same reason. And I have my association with the work of Betsy Damon (No Limits) to thank for some of my ability to stand up strongly to those telephone marketers, not to mention to be present about my work as an artist. By the way, is it not a small world? Do you remember me? I am amazed to see your presence in another place I have found. I will connect back with the other one soon.
