Guest guest Posted October 18, 2003 Report Share Posted October 18, 2003 When we share belief patterns with groups of people, we participate in energy and physical events created by those groups. This is the creative symbolic expression of the Sacred Truth ~All is One~. GOUP-EMOTION: the storm (emotinal) clearly manifests the triad. The triad of 1 the subconscious impressions, 2 you, the individual ego seeing it as apart, 3 in a relationship of seeing. Such manifestation will take place, as long as you have not observed, and resolved them by the energy of your undivided attention. This is the utility of the emotional outburst so that you can observe the manifesting sense-impression, energetically attend to it without reaction, and resolve it in the light of your understanding. If you react to the subconscious impression without observing, that reaction will create another impression. And, aggravate the force of the ignorant reaction over a period of time,as already experienced by you. This reaction also represses the original sense-impression which will remanifest until actually resolved. But, an impression resolved by attention merges into the substance of the subconscious. And, that wiil glow through the conscious mind and lend vitality to you. *anonimus love, Karta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 18, 2003 Report Share Posted October 18, 2003 Dear Karta, I've noticed that any time I focus my attention on something -- on anything -- my mental state changes. The act of deliberately holding the attention puts the mind into a state where it cannot do many of the things it normally does, like have temper tantrums. So yes, observing anger will tend to induce peacefulness, and one of the best ways of deal with unpleasant mental phenomena (anger, pain, etc.) is to pay attention to them. But I think the act of deliberately focusing the attention is more important than whatever we are focusing it on. Continuous deliberate attention is useful in itself apart from its utility in dealing with unpleasant things. One of the common threads in all systems of practice, it seems to me, is the goal of continuous deliberate attention. Buddists call this mindfulness. In some systems it's not explicitly named, but the idea is present. In Ramana Maharshi's system, for example, there is no specific term for " continuously focusing attention, " but the whole idea of his method is to cultivate a state in which attention is continuously and permanently held on the sense of " me. " It's difficult to maintain continuous attention. It keeps getting lost. It's interesting, when it comes back, to try to notice how it was lost, and to try to watch the process of it getting lost next time it happens.
