in the last few months i noticed that during full moon the personal emotional turmoil have become less...but now there is another aspect...i feel the violence and negative energies of people more...so i feel a negative collective awareness...
for instance there are serious security problems happening in 2 cities in Lebanon...personally i live in Beirut city and it is safe yet i can feel the negativity of the entire country in full moon time this collective negativity brings purification in the individual practitioner cause lots of thoughts appear...it brings out all the fears and emotions we have buried inside ourselves....it is a good purification if the practitioner has enough inner silence to observe...it is a good exercise in surrendering
in short good things are happening despite all the bad !
Last night i was talking to my ishta ...he is a hindu swami...no longer in his body but i always talk to him...so i told him please cover me in your orange robe and just keep on reminding me that all is happening exactly as it should Love maha
I'm very emotional lately as the AYP practices keep me on the edge of overloading. Normally I'd fall into depression feeling so sensitive and thinking I'm weak and abnormal.
Now I have hope that purification is taking place and have like you say enough inner silence to feel some detachment.
Coming home and reading a post like yours I feel assured that I'm headed in the right direction and grateful to be a part of the forum...thanks.
