the Summary

[Guest guest]

I don't remember " spiritual inquiry " EVER " working "

for me... when I am really " stressed " ,

tense or un-peaceful!

 

It has given me " fake " turnarounds,

superficial temporary cover-ups, thin

evaporating layers around my " stress " -

but, I don't remember it EVER freeing

me from it!

 

Sometimes I have done " spiritual inquiry " when

" stressed " and have even had

Momentarily laughs by the inquiry, work

and turnarounds. Yet, as far as I

remember my " pain " has ALWAYS returned

back pretty soon after that!

 

 

 

 

What has worked for me though is:

 

- Full Awareness!

 

 

Full Awareness of EXACTLY " what " I feel.

 

Full Awareness of Exactly " how " I feel.

 

Full Awareness of EXACTLY " where " I feel.

 

 

This is kind of directly walking into

the " pain " feeling in order to FULLY

understand it!

 

It is doing so with almost a child

like mind just full of curiosity!

 

 

And, what I have discovered that the

" pain " has almost always disappeared or

has greatly lessened its " scope " once I

tried to become Fully Aware of it! In

many cases, it has been " reduced " to a

trivial " physical " sensation somewhere in

the body in place of heavy emotional

burden that it had appeared like before

this full awareness of it!

 

 

 

And, it is in this surrounding of

" peace " that I have found " spiritual inquiry " to

really work!

 

Based on my own personal experience,

my recommendation is...

 

- Any time I feel stress, tension,

fear, distress, worry the first step

should be to fully acknowledge it and

to directly SEE " what " and " how "

exactly you feel and " where " ! Anything

else can work only after you have first

completely acknowledged and seen what

exactly is that you feel right Now!

 

 

As I have experienced, the " stress " ,

" tension " , fear (contraction of body)

is kind of a energy build-up waiting

for my full attention and

acknowledgement. It is kind of SIGNAL

to me and the underlying neural network

is waiting for my " Conscious "

" acknowledgement " and receipt before it

can really let go of this signal and

energy build up (muscle tension,

contraction...)!

 

And, I have noticed

that FULL Attention is the way I

" acknowledge " it. And, once I do that

the underlying neural network [or body]

lets go of the contraction [tension,

stress, worry, fear] perhaps thinking

that the SIGNAL has successfully

reached the Master and " assured " that

the Master can now do whatever the

Master finds appropriate!
