A young lady from Denmark for a couple of weeks was my
neighbor. She did a yoga-teacher-training at our resort. At a Sunday she joined
me on my scooter to the city. I had to go there because I had to serve in the
cathedral. She wanted to do some shopping in Chiang Mai and because she did not have transportation she asked me if she could be my passenger that Sunday.
She already traveled a lot and in my opinion she has a
lot of insight, wisdom as well as understanding for her age about different cultures and
living live.
On our way back we talked about the two different personal worlds most people live in. About one personal world part people are most of the time ‘open’. This part has to do with work, education, position, place where you come from and place where you live, etc..
On our way back we talked about the two different personal worlds most people live in. About one personal world part people are most of the time ‘open’. This part has to do with work, education, position, place where you come from and place where you live, etc..
About the other personal part people are ‘closed’. This
has to do with harm, feeling, sensuality and sexuality.
Both parts have to do with the interaction with
yourself and the interaction with the outside world. For most themes is easier and more safe, to talk about the relationship with your outside world. So to bring it in the
light. What’s going on in the inside
world we keep in the dark. A dark secret, sometimes sacred world.
People feel ashamed to talk about this part of their
personal world and most of the time do not even want to discuss this part in
silence with themselves. That’s why they do not know themselves, they do not
feel home with themselves, not comfortable at all to face the inner war so they run away for themselves. There are many, many ways to do this.
During Tantra work (basically a spiritual Tibetan Buddhism practice) you start to discover being your
free self in your own natural environment. To free inner energy, sensitivity and bliss. Related to Ethology (the study of human behavior under
natural conditions from a biological perspective). A journey to discover
yourself in the first place. To touch yourself, to explore your feeling without
shame. To start to love and honor yourself as a free human being without any
judging. Opening up to yourself. Starting to make your personal dark side
visible to yourself.
Working, in a safe comfort zone, with yourself and also with
others you learn to give and to receive. To open up.
Having a dialogue with my neighbor on back of my
scooter on the way back to the residences we live, we talked about so many sad
experiences, brought by raising of children, culture, religion, environment,
sexual abuse, etc., that helps to keep the personal dark worlds dark.
Our (programmed) brain a lot of times is a very disturbing thing. Creating the 'voices' in our head (not our own voice but out of the best intentions from our parents, ancestors, culture, relationship(s), religion and so on). Open up, free your mind. Not opening up, not being able to expire what really feels good
for you (so gives energy) in the way you for instance touch yourself or want to
be touched by other people or your relationship, keeps you away of living your
life the fullest. You are always in the mood to hide, not to show up, not to
open up.
How wonderful I meet more and more people who are
already open or have the intention to open up. The present they discover is what this personal dark side has to offer. A lot of
energy, a lot of pleasure and bliss and last but not least a so much better health.
Bring light and love to your hidden (sacred) world.
