Distractions

[Guest guest]

Distractions will come as the ego resists being controlled and in this

resistance can we experience many things that can distract us from this path. It

isn't as easy as it may seem to retrain the ego as we are so very close to it.

You may wish to meditate but oh! There is that sporting event or there is that

housework that just NEEDS to be done right now this very instant! Or " gosh " I am

feeling like I NEED some chocolate right now etc. Anything that can be done

will be done to keep you away from your inner work.

So know this and be aware and gently but firmly refuse these distractions.

Be resolute about your Kundalini practice and in time after some struggle your

ego will begin to merge into the new person it is becoming along with your

developments and eventually hand in hand you will merge into the oneness that

you are. – blessings everyone! - chrism

Im glad I read this post, distracted is exactly how Im feeling at the moment.

Every day life is doing a very good job of derailing my practices. My ego isn't

always obvious, but its certainly very devious!

Thanks Danielle, I resonate with that. Reading your post brought back those

times years ago when I first became a christian, every day I would get up and

hurry and get all my going and chores done for the day as fast as possible. Then

I could spend the rest of the day reading the bible and comunicating with Jesus

and praying, freed from the distration of having to get this or that done, I put

my all into it. I would do that until the girls came home from school. Then I

had the evening chores to do.

After everyone was in bed asleep I would get back up many nights and spend

several more hours in meditation and prayer. I could not get enough. I was like

a hungry caterpillar. I lost all my friends during that time. My interest in

getting together with them, chatting/partying or whatever, ended. I tried, but

my heart desire was no longer there to do those former things. They gave up on

me after a while....Life and things to do are always changing and morphing into

something else.

fulls of activities that bring me joy and that I love to be doing. They fill be

so much and bring so much delight...they are simple things, yet full of beauty.
