Guest guest Posted February 4, 2003 Report Share Posted February 4, 2003 Sat Nam Karin, I am reminded of something Yogi Bhajan said in a lecture. This woman asked him…"What should I do when I feel confused?" He answered…"Feel confused….and then when you're not confused anymore..you won't feel confused". This wasn't the answer she was looking for I don't think! Ha ha! But it speaks to the point. You have a negative, positive and neutral mind. The first two will give you a million thoughts to consider, but only the neutral mind has the power of choice. It can take the neg info and the pos info and make a choice, based on profit for all. So when the neg. and Pos. minds pull you in all directions….find the neutral mind and make intuitive heart centered choices. So develop the neutral mind. This is done through first being able to recognize when the neg or pos mind is dominating….This is an act of awareness, which is what the neutral mind does …it witnesses and observes, without judgement. Developing your awareness gives you the consciousness to act from your higher self. Practice being aware and allowing of all sensations in every moment. Meaning experience deeply through your senses anything and everything without labeling, naming or reacting to it. Just allow yourself to be in relation to your senses. Everytime you catch yourself getting wrapped up in thought….come back to "being". This will develope your neutral mind. The neutral mind relates to the heart center so do Kriya's for the heart center.. chant Ra Ma Da Sa Sa Se So Hung….aura strengthening and be aware. Do acts of Seva…Selfless service to develop the heart center as well. Notice during meditation when you reach the neutral state of awareness and make choices in this state. After wards when you are no longer in that state of consciousness, but have put something into motion, based on a decision you made while in that heart space, recognize the negative and positive mind taking your for a ride now. This is the feeling of…oh I can't trust myself! The neg and pos minds do not have the power of discernment…they can only throw thoughts at you....good, bad or ugly, so recognize it for what it is, they may or may not be supporting your heart centered choice…..remember your choice was made when you were in a connected state....and keep coming back to this truth. Follow this process and you will train your neg and pos minds to support the neutral mind….once they realize there is a new "boss" in town they will begin to fall in line and support your higher self! Now if you're not aware of a neutral state of Consciousness…..in order to be able to recognize when you `re in one…. Then begin with simply practicing being aware and noticing when your awareness gets pulled off track and instead of allowing that train to completely de- rail….just bring yourself back to noticing, allowing and being. It's a process….you just keep following the steps and eventually the amount of distrust of yourself will lessen as you gain confidence that you are in fact acting from your higher self. So my point at the beginning about Yogi Bhajan's comment was that all we do with any feeling, emotion or thought is to be aware of it, allow it, without reacting to it and in this simple process transformation in some way will begin to occur. Hope this is helpful…. Blessings, Sat Sangeet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
