Hi Yu,

Yes, my experience is the same. After some practice, this technque becomes natural and technique-less. Thanks for visiting and commenting. Excellent insight!

love and peace,

Great post. I’ve been meditating for a long while, and a technique similar to yours has gotten me so far. I recently took a trip to Mount Fuji in Japan, (I have a post of it on my blog) and I realized something interesting, that riding my bike has the same meditative effects that your regular meditation has. It is all about letting things be the way the actually are, it doesn’t quite matter where you are and what you are doing.

Hi Janice,
No matter how your friend reacts, you have been able to release. That’s wonderful. Thanks for this very uplifting, open and helpful sentiment.

Namaste,

Hi Lisa,

Yes, I go through that too. Periods of deep resistance or confusion. After wallowing in it for a while, I remember to go back to the basics. Be present, be aware, release, meditate. At those times when I can’t even seem to do that, I go back to reading and listening.

Thanks for your open and helpful comment.

love and peace,

Hi Patty,

Yes, putting it into practice is the trick. I had all sorts of resistant questions: how can this work, I need to understand more, what is the spiritual or philosophical or scientific principle behind this, and so on.

It’s just letting go. No more.

Some of the most resistant people are spiritual people. I think the people who consider themselves spiritually advanced depend on concepts. Concepts of God and karma and high monks and priests and so on…We look for the conceptual secret. And even when these people go through humbling break-downs, they always tend to go back to the same conceptual solutions. They “deepen” their spirituality.

It is not about concepts or understanding. It is about actual experience. Be here. Be still. Let go.

In the end, people see this when they are ready.

Thanks for your wisdom.

love and peace,
k

So true, Kaushik, about understanding release but having difficulty putting it into practice. I just had this conversation with a client yesterday, and her resistance was powerful. And as much as one of her emotions (resentment toward another person) had her in a strangle hold, she admitted she wasn’t quite sure she even wanted to release it. But if it’s OK, I will share your technique with her. It provide her with a way through. So thanks!

Kaushik, this was a good reminder for me today. I have some stuff going on and hence some stuff coming up. And I need to breathe through it, and sit with hit, and allow it to release. And it will take some time. I did something like this on a beach a couple of weeks ago, but I have gotten trapped in the ‘time-trap’ – feeling like there is not time, and have not tended to this cycle as my awareness (and body) have been urging me too.

Hope you are well- Lisa

Dear Mr. K.,
Subract, Subract, Subract.
Well I went and did it. I subracted something that has been on my mind for a long time. See I hurt my friend, maybe like 3 years ago. I knew I did it when I did it. I just could not figure out how to undo it. I have prayed about this and tried to practice a million times how to say I am sorry. Well, today I am waiting for the cable guy to get here and fix our land line. With no planned or clear thought I sat down and started writing and wrote a letter to her. I told her I am sorry that I knew all along that our break up was my fault. I was a croward and could not face up to her. She was always a very good friend and I really let her down. I did not tell her I was sorry to make myself feel better ( I knew that would never work in this case ) I told her I was sorry because she deserved an explanation and I needed to affirm to her what I did. Of course, I hope she forgives me, but, actually I just hope she feels better, if that is what needs to happen. I feel shakey now, like I cannot believe I dropped the letter in the mailbox. I did not even trust myself to go in post office and purchase stamps. So, I put two .41 stamps on the envelope and dropped it like a hot potato in the mail slot.

You know that quote by Adyashanti: “Whoever said spirituality is not a bloody mess?” I feel like I am living that line of words right this minute.
Thanks for always being there,
Janice
