thanks for your beautiful shares. I loved this post and it's time to thank you for this and the others that I've read and watched (youtube).
You are definitely describing a place that I can relate to presently. My challenge is that this all feels like punishment… I’m not sure anyone could convince me otherwise. And the irony of that sentence has not escaped me :) . . . but . . . even though I know there is no "me" the guilt arises because I know I'm supposed to know better and the torture/loop just stays intact. Hope that makes sense.
In any case, thanks for sharing your insights with us
JJ, thank you for your kind words. That's of course (as you know) where the shift is, where the 'death' of the old is, where the surrender is, etc. 'All this feels like punishment..' What is it going to take, what is it that needs to change in you to stop seeing it all as a punishment, to stop endlessly feeling guilty. It's not about knowing better, it's about being true and facing what it really is that makes you feel guilty and need to be punished, and resolving to end that self torture, because it is not true.
Keep digging into that darkness, it really becomes light.
The true essence of 'being' captured eloquently with a few words.
Thank you Kavi.
Thank you Lara x
