The Five Expressive Bodies - Brandi

[Guest guest]

Depends upon his meaning of the word pain. All of the bodies of

expression with a possible exception of the spiritual body can feel

pain. I am defining aspects of the human expressive platform and

grouping them into known sensate experiences with reference to how and

where the the expression correlates with in our complete platform of

expression. Heart pain of an emotional nature being associated to the

emotional body but which can also bleed over into the phsyical body

cardio expression as an example. - blessings and soft chairs dear

Laugh! I need some extra cushions right now that's for sure. But he isn't

really speaking of physical pain. That can be part of it, but it's mostly

emotional pain. The best way I can illustrate it is through example. If

in the past I was hurt or offended by something - encountering that now

may trigger my pain body. He describes it as sort of a form of psychic

parasite that lives off pain, that seeks it out, feeds on it. The best

example I know of is when you see a battered woman get out of one abusive

relationship and the very next guy she is attracted to is another abuser.

But at the same time it is part of us, not something separate from us.

We've all known someone with a heavy pain body, someone who is overly

sensitive and easily offended has a heavy pain body according to Tolle. I

think he is using the language metaphorically but sometimes sounds quite

literal in the way he describes it.
