#12 'Get Out of Jail Free' Card
FIRST DRAFT [ -add italics]
..How to 'Get Out of Jail' from a really bad set of emotions..
The title is a reference to the board game Monopoly ...where this card if drawn gets you out of the board game 'Jail' square and you can carry on :)
Ideally you have studied my other postings here.
But let me catch you up fast if you have not
.This is my method
I want to introduce you to someone:
Paloma Porta ---The Mighty - The Invincible - The Creator of Worlds.
How can she be like this?
It's because we all are part of the Divine..the Infinite Awareness and define ourselves with a set of beliefs within that. Beliefs about the "Game" , The Illusion, The Matrix, ...limiting beliefs if you like -but it's not a negative thing -all is well :)
Mini-me , our persona is a creation within Big Me.
-but you may not feel these things - it doesn't matter read on !!
Imagine now or recall that "special time" when life really DIDN'T work out the bloody way you bloody wanted it :-
Consider from this place of anger/despair/grief... how Paloma feels when Paloma plus human or second life avatar has something 'bad' happen to her.
Normal people (lol) would feel an emotion - "Ohhh nooo- my car" [Weeping] - etc
Paloma does NOT require anything is this STUPID Reality to make her feel happy.
Paloma feels it is nice to be loved BUT does NOT require love from others to be happy.
Paloma feels it is nice to be approved of BUT does NOT require approval from others to be happy.
Paloma feels it is nice to be wealthy and rich BUT does not require any physical object to be happy.
Paloma has no peculiar set of requirements to be happy.
Paloma does not assign people or things as the source of her emotions.
Paloma is Source.
...Why assign people or things as the source of emotions?
...Why not be Source?
.Let me talk about you.
There you are in life's "Jail" with all the horrible stuff going on -you feel emotions you don't want to feel -right?
...Why assign people or things as the source of emotions?
...Why not be Source?
Who is controlling the emotions you are making?:-
Your husband?
Your daughter?
Your failure?
Your success?
Your lack of something?
Your possession of something?
Your stolen or damaged something?
Your hunger?
Your homelessness?
Your illness or body condition?
or worse - your lost mobile phone (cell phone) ?...LOL
The world out there - is in many ways, not you !
But it is your Creation.
And there is the oneness you may feel with it -like Everything is really part of a Big Me.
-but you may not feel these things -doesn't matter.
Who or what is controlling you??
In the Physical World stuff happens -this I understand - and things sometimes appear to be out of your control.
But how you react to events,incidents and conditions in your world is under your control.
Your emotions are under your control.
If you don't believe that contact me immediately and you can be my slave - I could use you [a joke, to make the point] -lol
What is controlling you? - more to the list:-
Beliefs systems?
Indoctrination by society?
Lack of enlightenment
Poor progress in meditation practice
Your Guru says you're not there yet?
Subliminal advertising?
Self doubt?
Because you don't have all the answers?
Because past experience shows me that when things happen I have emotions that are not under my control?
Because you believe [ put your idea in here for why you don't control your emotions -how you feel]
Every idea you have is your creation -life just isn't 'that way' !
Life is 'that way' because that is what you have created !
Life is 'that way' for others because that is what they have created !
Your conclusions of your life experience is not controlling your emotions - or is it?
.Now what?
.How to live.
Seeing that my emotions are sort of a bi-product of concepts I hold of the world, the whole emotions game seems a bit false - emotions really are just something of my own manufacture.
As I have grown into this, emotions have become creations and thus things.
And I feel my identity -the Paloma thing - as a creation also...
"oooo look I feel enthusiastic" really feels like "Paloma feels an emotion".
.Neutrality - being neutral.
With emotions as things ,and things associated mostly with the physical world they become less valid.
Behind any emotion seems to be lurking the "Watcher" or "Witness",the Infinite Awareness.
Judgment of others or situations seem to fall into the same category as they seem to produce emotions.
"This is bad -I feel bad".
By remaining neutral one can thus pop out of an assessment or judgment or label one has put on something and also pop out of the [negative?] emotion.
"This is bad - I feel bad ---->Wait -- I can be neutral here - 'bad' is only my judgment from the view of my persona - if all is Divine (The Really Big Me) what is bad? - so why feel bad over something that isn't bad ---cool I feel okay now ---maybe even happy ! "
We are Source.
We do not assign people or things as the source of our emotions.
We can be neutral.
And from Source we can create happiness - no matter what!
.note
Once we become increasingly neutral , let go of judgment and see things as they are -just things - life seems to respond to our will much better.
Well that's my theory anyway - have a go at it - we're all doing our best here, are we not? !
