Daily Question, April 30

What needs to be released in my life, in order for me to live more fully?

  • Malag

    I drive through life with the brake engaged, always on the alert for threat and often not at peace for fear of something bad happening. To release that brake would be a fine thing.

  • Sunflower

    In order to flow with the sun of life I need to let go of hurt feelings, to forgive where there is nothing to forgive and to feel the joy and gratitude to always be able to start again. When there is not much to love, love more. Thank you.

    Fear, doubt, and anxiety.

    Such a sweeping question! I think mistrust may be the word that connects all that holds me back - mistrust that I'm lovable as I am, that others will see and accept and value me with my needs, feelings, wildly idiosyncratic opinions, sensitivities and faults, that life isn't rejecting or abandoning me when loss or trauma or health conditions arise, and that it's okay to really give from my heart and my possession, because life is abundant and the basic human desire to share and help one another...

    Such a sweeping question! I think mistrust may be the word that connects all that holds me back – mistrust that I’m lovable as I am, that others will see and accept and value me with my needs, feelings, wildly idiosyncratic opinions, sensitivities and faults, that life isn’t rejecting or abandoning me when loss or trauma or health conditions arise, and that it’s okay to really give from my heart and my possession, because life is abundant and the basic human desire to share and help one another is stronger than our desires to hoard or divide or have power over one another.

    My first thought. Kind of daunting to actually imagine really letting go of all that. I think for me it may be more of a process than an immediate happening. It’s helpful to see where I want to go, and be able to share that here!

    Fear, anger and numerous habits of avoiding uncomfortable emotions and felt senses. Also tons of protective habits of mind and body that prevent me from opening and committing to people, the moments and life as it is …

    As a Researcher of Truth ….this words by the mystic Stylianos Atteshlis …get right to the heart of this question….”What needs to be released in my life, in order for me to live more fully?”…very well…very completely……..

    So this is this work of every Seeker of the Truth. Instead of being a slave of circumstances, his desires and emotions, leaving the Mind [to be as] as a slave to our desires and being even our self the slave of our personal egoism [ but rather to instead ] wake up as a personality, controlling our behavior and know now the truth, instead of being misguided by allusions, so that we will reach what I call the “Self-Consciousness” of our present-day personality. And believe me this is a great, great, day. You’ll find out that really now, you live in a better way and, for you now life is precious and is getting a new value now. Something more. You start respecting that self, even as a present-day-personality, while before you had no respect for your personality.

    So introspection is looking within, analyzing your present-day personality self-consciousness and making corrections. You will not losing anything! You’re gaining much!! So by trying to annihilate the egoism you gain your Ego. You assimilate your present-day personality self to your Real Ego Self, the SPIRIT,

    I guess my old bugaboo, fear. Fear of losing my job, of not being able to pay my bills. The release of judgment of others would also be freeing. Just to accept others exactly as they are – such a fine way to treat or to be treated.

  • Kevin

    To answer today’s question succinctly and at a purely personal level, a release from the chronic back pain I live with would be nice.

  • Antoinette

    I need to release any cherished outcomes better known as clear attachments.
    I have to trust in love and truth and know that no matter what happens I’m grateful.
