The essence of a healthy, emotional and mental life is ACTION and decision making.
To withdraw makes you less, rather than complete. Stop hiding. It is a lie. It is not
helping.
How do you discover what you are? Through communication with another?
Sometimes you need a retreat, but only for a short time.@
Freud. Jung. Adler.
Drugs can open a door, but do not give us room to live in.
*************
God=s miracles belong to those who can concentrate on one thing and limit themselves.
Focus. We bless the Lord by dancing because dancing kills the ego. Love. Human. Self. God.
All. Everything. Pay attention. Be aware. Focus on the task at hand.
Structured meditation. 1. 2. 3. 4. Breathe.
Unstructured. How do I love? How can I?
Will. Drive. Keep the chariot moving.
Horse = state of emotion
Chariot is the intellect.
Value. Do it every day. Meditation = medication.
Outer. Inner. Middle.
Something on the outside and work our way in. Examine something.
Explore actively with the inner eye.
Meditation. Middle. Emptiness.
Blank state but aware.
Observe your own thoughts, perceptions, reaction.
