27.05.2001 - Interpretation of dali48

Our desire leads, together with the temporary nature of our lives, to pain - by longing for something that is in the future, we lose the experience of the present - When we grasp and hold it, it changes (see e.g. "love" etc. - d.48)... - When we move into the future or linger in the past, we give up the only true experience we can rely on: the present moment - Moreover, our satisfaction does not last - Joy does not come from the fact that we finally make the experience or win the object we were looking for - but from the diminution of desire, this brief moment before the next desire - While this moment fades, we try to hold on to it or repeat it - In the face of the fleeting nature of our existence, we try to keep control... - When we reach a goal or fulfill a desire, it changes - Change causes anxiety and pain, and we continue with our further search for satisfaction even more strongly to what we have accumulated so far... - The act had been done... - There was no going back; it was impossible to recapture the past (i.e. mindfulness about doing, speaking, thinking, etc. - d.48)... - Many people get a taste for their own death by almost fatal accidents... - by diseases... - by violence... - or by addictions (see cigarettes, alcohol etc. - d.48)... - When we stand before the last gate, we learn that, with the exception of suicide... - no one will have any control when and where death will occur - If we accept that our physical bodies die, then we recognize at a certain point that we will not be able to hold on to our possessions, roles, or relationships forever - We may be shocked by the insight that we do not possess our children - They are borrowed to us... - The fear of death and our unwillingness to acknowledge and accept it are often motivating factors for our attachment and our addictions... (C. Grof)

27.05.2001 - Interpretation of dali48

Oppressed, conquered, alienated persons learn what Angeles called the "loss of the soul," which resembles the individual state of "spiritual bankruptcy"...
Abused people learn to harm themselves, members of their family or community and others. Many try to lose the soul with alcohol... - drugs or material possession... - The depths of spiritual bankruptcy contain the potential for a powerful transformation - On the other side of hell there is the promise of a new life... - This healing process, to admit our personal impotence and to open us for our own personal abilities - is not only for alcoholics, but for any form of addiction - It affects every person who clings to another, an object, an activity, an imagination or a place that hinders effective and creative activity - The death of old personality structures and unsuccessful ways of life is necessary to reach a freer, happier and more loving existence - What dies, that is the false identity, which behaves as if we were the center of the universe... - D. H. Lawrence has precisely captured the experience of death and rebirth in both prose and poems, e.g. "New Heaven and Earth"... - Addiction and everything that goes with it is frightening, threatening and possibly deadly - I do not wish anyone the hell of this soul disease... - Amazing spiritual episodes can happen to anyone, including those who previously referred to themselves as agnostics or atheists... - We see ourselves as material beings living within a limited reality. This is the aspect of us (ego-existence) that is necessary for effective functioning in our world... - Ironically, letting go of what we think is crucial is necessary when we want to change - As it is necessary, to let go of an activity so that something new can happen, we have to give up the little "self" to get to know the deeper "self" and incorporate it into our life experience... - After spending years building a fortress of illusory strength and security, the abandonment of our false identity is frightening. If we let go of control, we may feel pain and fear. Experience has taught us that defense mechanisms are to be maintained at all costs because everything else means that we are overwhelmed... - In addition, giving oneself requires modesty. It means that we must abandon the façade of false pride and arrogance, and allow the weaknesses to become visible... - Our firm belief in the illusion that the events in this world should unfold according to our plan, exhausts us and lets us back miserably... - When I do not have it, I feel pain - If I want it but can not reach it, I feel pain - When I get it and realize that it will not last long, I feel pain - If I have had it and I want it to return, I feel pain (see Buddha about suffering etc. - d.48)... - We are often dominated by our desires that we lose the ability to be happy at the present moment... (C. Grof)

Life is a path from lack to deficiency - not from pleasure to enjoyment... (S. Johnson)

Quote: If I have had it and I want it to return, I feel pain (see Buddha about suffering etc. - d.48)... - We are often dominated by our desires that we lose the ability to be happy at the present moment... (C. Grof) Unquote. This an amazing post dali48. Our souls are the only way we can really heal, it takes almost a lifetime to discover the importance of soul searching, thank you for sharing...
