Should you have realised, which I am sure that you have, at this stage, that my aims are to identify and modify the undesirable and to replace it with the desirable, then you must now be wondering how you can identify not only both, but how you can then tell them apart? I propose using the emotions to do that. I will be using positive and negative emotion and so if, at this point, you are a little concerned about yourself and how you are going to work things out, it is the reactions that Higher Intelligence has allotted to a particular experience or circumstance that I will be using and hopefully in a short period of time you will become very familiar with. So, baring that in mind, remember that anything wholly acceptable (positive emotion) is everything that makes you feel good and makes you completely fit and healthy and generates feelings of tolerance, peace, tranquillity, serenity and complete contentment, all within you. The unacceptable (negative emotion) and that which has to be eliminated, is everything that has an opposite effect and which, in the past and the present, generates a totally unacceptable reaction. Anything that has caused or is causing emotional pain, jealousy, fear, anger, frustration, depression, unnatural response, unnatural reaction, unnatural or unwanted behaviour, unwanted habits, unwanted and undesirable mental and physical responses, in whatever form they appear to manifest themselves.
So, therefore, if you can get Higher Intelligence to modify the present, unacceptable programming and replace it with something more desirable, then you should be able to achieve great things. You can and you will. But not so fast! It is one thing to know how to, but it is something else entirely, to be able to identify and know what to alter and if there is more than one underlying route problem, which there inevitably is, then not only to recognise what to alter but in what order to do it and how then to recognise and handle the results. If the result is good (and a positive emotion is generated) and it makes you 'feel better' then there is no problem and the technique is instantly recognised and is accepted as 'working.' But what if, either in the beginning or as you progress, the result is not exactly what you expected (and you experience negative emotions) do you dismiss it as failure? Certainly not. You recognise and accept it as being the result of one strong, negative emotion being released and then, as a result, allowing to surface and take it's place, a lesser one that it had been suppressing and holding down. This process may repeat itself on numerous occasions until the underlying negative layers of emotions have been released and should, and must be, interpreted as progress and not failure just because you have to pass through a 'pain barrier' of compounded negative responses. It is important that you remember that, otherwise you will find yourself adopting the wrong approach to what is happening. Any reaction is better than no reaction at all and if the response can not be a good one, which you can be assured that it will be in the end, than any other responses are proof that it is working for you and that you have grasped the basis of my philosophy. I know and you know that you can't harm yourselves even if you have an unpleasant reaction and you should remember that although the latest, the replacement feelings or reactions, may appear to be 'new' they are, in actual fact, old ones and of a lesser power than the one that was released in order to allow it to surface. The 'new' one is also now in the prime position for elimination, should that be necessary, and that, in turn, can only be good.
With the acceptance that the positive emotion is your aim, then apart from replacing the negative ones with it, you can, from now on, place the positive aspects, temporarily, to one side and concentrate on eliminating the negative, harmful and the un-desirable.
Every unacceptable physical and emotional feeling, response and reaction, you now know and accept, as being the result of compounded experiences and an irrational and unwanted interpretation and response to those experiences in the first place, and which are re-stimulated and re-experienced every time the experience re-appears, confronts you or manifests itself, real or imagined.
Further more and here is yet another caution, you should be aware and remember, that what may appear, on the surface to be very serious 'problem,' may have only a minor 'misunderstanding' underlying it. Whereas some of the more serious problems may hardly show or manifest themselves at all on the surface. Then if, for some reason, Subconscious or Higher Intelligence having, rightly or wrongly, recognised or interpreted them as being so serious that they present a 'threat to us,' again real or imagined, may have pushed the very route causes so far down that they are now not only very difficult to find and identify, but they are then very difficult to drag out and subsequently eliminate. The extent of your understanding and beliefs in yourself and desire to change things for the better, whilst ignoring the setbacks, will determine your degree of success, in these deep-seated and complex areas. But it can still be done. I know it can, but I want you to appreciate, at this stage, why you just cannot rush in and why you need to be aware, beforehand, of what it is all about.
The first to contradict that and say, 'Oh I know what is wrong and what caused it,' is WRONG, for if they knew what caused it then logic alone would have eliminated it, long before it ever became a problem. You may know what your problem is and you may well know when it started and I won't dispute that, but you don't know what caused it. A problem only exists because you do not know exactly what truly caused it (have completely forgotten or 'suppressed it' and at this stage have no means of recalling it and applying any form of logic), and it is essential that you recognise this.
Here may also be the ideal time to point out that many, many problems are not the result of one single experience, one single misinterpretation of events. But are, in the majority of cases, the culmination of many minor incidents, many of which, if taken in isolation, are relatively insignificant in themselves, but over a period they have become compounded until they have elicited a totally irrational response from Subconscious and/or Higher Intelligence.
So back to where I was. You may recall an event and even the emotive response that goes with it, but that will be a more recent event. The original will have long been forgotten, for if it hadn't, then it would have been possible to rationalise it and to get rid of it. Anything that can be rationalised can be eliminated and that again is one of the keys to your future success. Recently remembered events are only compounding and are the re-stimulation of a long forgotten (suppressed) route based reaction and cause. I would like to illustrate that but there are so many and there is so much that to even try would be a waist of time and probably a disaster leaving you with the wrong impression altogether, for there are probably as many problems, with as many route causes, as there are people on the planet and to illustrate something that is far removed from your needs and wants would not inspire much confidence. So please be patient, for shortly I hope to demonstrate exactly what I mean and how you can use it to suit yourself. So for the moment will you please accept that all problems, real or imagined, come from one common route source? They are the resulting (negative) responses to, either an original physical or emotional experience and to the emotional response that was coupled, at the time, with it. As all experiences generate an emotional charge and they are compounded and reinforce many times over after that and then for reasons unknown, or should I say best known to Higher Intelligence, perhaps because it is too painful, get buried deep down in the depths of the Subconscious.
For those who insist, and there will always be those who having recognised a problem and then once having accepted it's existence, will go on to develop an almost uncontrolled enthusiasm to do something about it and that desire and enthusiasm will often outweigh their patience. Particularly at this stage when all I seem to be doing is cautioning and demanding patience and where a lack of patience may well underlie and be, as yet, part of the unrecognised problem. So to those I say, wait no longer. Try the following but don't loose heart if it doesn't work at first or if there are no 'mind-blowing' results, for it is early days and you have been warned that everything will come together later.
WHAT MAKES YOU CRY?
Are you alone and unlikely to be disturbed for the foreseeable future? (The next half hour or so?) Then having read through this first, close your eyes so that you 'close down' part of Conscious and think about what makes you cry, what has made you cry in the past, and what event, or happening, would be likely to make you cry in the future?
Notice I give you three options to create, or bring about, one emotional response, to make you cry. This is a technique, not the crying but the multiple options, that you will soon become very familiar with.
Try it now and see what happens without expecting or predetermining an outcome.
It worked? Good, then wipe your eyes and be pleased that you have broken the barrier and are now on your way to a freedom you may previously have never imagined existed.
It didn't work? Then try again or save it for later. Perhaps the next time you are completely alone or you are in bed and it is dark and you are comfortable. Or you may find that without warning you have a spontaneous reaction, when you least expect it, and in a place where you would least expect it to happen. But it will eventually happen, and you will think of something, and you will cry, and you will be instantly aware that it has worked, be assured of that.
However, to be unable to stimulate that essential emotion, after several attempts, does not signal failure. It means one of two things, either you are just not trying and a little more effort is required and by that I mean possibly spending a bit more time alone, in a quiet place, and thinking about it, or you have long since shut off (suppressed) this emotion and it is now part of your problems. Either way give it your best shot and remember it is not a test or an assessment, but if you cry, even if you feel you forced it, then good, but no reaction, however desirable, is still not the end of the world.
So you now know and accept where the unwanted lies and how it came about in the first place and have tried a simple, though important, exercise to demonstrate how thought can illicit and, in it's turn, demonstrate an emotion, for that was what the crying was all about? You generated a thought or several, which caused a feeling and Higher Intelligence, via Subconscious, provided an emotional response. What you now need to know is how to find, discover and recognise the route causes of the much deeper, much more important and definite undesirable and unwanted aspects of your negative emotions, unwanted personality and physical ills. In reality anything and everything that is preventing you from developing and becoming that wonderful, satisfied and fulfilled person that you so desire to be.
Then having done all that, learn then what you can do to prevent a reoccurrence of anything you rid yourself of and prevent yourself from being 'knocked back down,' in the future.
Big expectations. Let me deal with them. |
