For Red - DEATH [ Energy of transformation that lead to healing

Hi Red,

The seasons are cyclical, our moods are cyclical. We respond to the

seasons. Night and day are cyclical. We respond to the light and the

darkness. Is Nataraj dizzy from the dance? Are you not Nataraj,

centered, observing, creating?

> that so much is borken

 

Are these physical falls resulting in broken bones or are you speaking

figuratively/metaphorically of failed attempts at something in

particular? If metaphor, then, how do you mean you are growing weaker?

 

What actions have you taken and what is the purpose/goal?

What are you failing to create?

 

Also, regarding painful falls:

Do you not think of life as fun and yourself as a child at play,

learning how things really are v. how you thought they should be?

Children fall and then get up, again, to join their friends.

Being childlike (full of wonder) is fun! :-)

 

To answer your question regarding how to surrender:

 

Death (or any change) involves surrender only if you think of it in

terms of surrender. ;-)

 

I like this quote I found:

"Attitude is what you start with when you approach a creative

situation. It guides your attention and hence what you see and how you

interpret what you see. A creative attitude is open, passionate,

focused, and has many other attributes that leads you in the direction

of creative success." --from:

http://creatingminds.org/quotes/attitude.htm

 

Note the focus is on Creativity with you as Creator. One of the best

ways of "destroying"/ridding ourselves of what is undesirable, is by

filling our lives with creativity so their is little or no room for

the undesirable. Destruction through Creation.

 

Here's another way of looking at it:

Let us say, for example, that the universe has an apparent sexual

nature to it...

(rhetorical questions--no need to answer, here)

In sex, do you surrender to your partner?

Do you "surrender" to orgasm?

Maybe "surrender" isn't the right word?

What does surrender suggest? An opponent? Loss of a battle? Victory

and vanquishing?

If surrender doesn't work for you, maybe it's the wrong label?

Perhaps "embrace" or "accept" might work better in terms of what it is

that you are attempting to accomplish? Or another label?

> Spiritual death should it be permanent or transitional in nature?

 

What are you trying to kill?

> Does spiritual death means the absence of the senses?

 

By "spiritual death" do you mean asamprajnata nirvikalpa samadhi?

> Passionless !!! Vanquished, Weak, Loser !

 

Well, that's what you get when you surrender, isn't it? ;-)

 

Love,
