Guest guest Posted May 12, 2005 Report Share Posted May 12, 2005 Many, many seers and masters from down the centuries said ...ego once really uprooted STOPS reoccurring on its Own ! >>>> Just like any other habit ! <<<<< Many, many traditions, gurus, masters .... came out with 'practice', 'sadhana', 'meditation' ...which, in fact is NOTHING but staying VIGILANT, Alert, Watchful, 'Witness', PRESENT to watch, witness, 'guide' / END the patterns of Mind ! Ramana even repeated it over and over with: ---- the NEED to make MIND STRONG so that the peace can be STEADY. Tolle talks about remaining 'watchful' and 'vigilant' ...Even, Now ! ------------------------ In fact, it is possible that a habit / any habit might have its ***Physical*** part Too! it is possible that the Brain might Create a specific >>>neural path<<< to remember and learn a Habit. It then, might tend to use the same path over and over whenever certain stimuli is present. It might also might need " food " ( stimuli ) to keep that path alive by repeating this behavior. As such, it might make many attempts to sustain that circuitry. Then, as that 'circuitry' gets starved and alternative 'path' gets created and used, the old circuitry starts losing its strength, starts unwinding and ....even dissolve in pure brain liquid which then can be used or discarded. ---------------------------- Discover Stay in touch with email, IM, photo sharing & more.
