Go ahead, put
your hand on the base of your throat. Cue a song that reminds you of
a loved one you miss. (This lesson is not intended to be gentle).
Open your mouth and breathe lightly and gently. Take a brief glance
at a picture of the person the song reminds you of, then close your
eyes (More than a brief glance gives more time for the initial
feelings of love to become clouded, which pollutes the channel).
In a
quiet and deep voice, say, “Ahhhhhhh,” while pressing Play with your free hand. After
30 seconds, focus on your emotions and see what happens when you
imagine your loved one holding you in the middle of the love-pain
under your hand, filling and soothing so intimate a space as that
fifth chakra. If you really don't believe this is possible, do it
anyway.

Those feelings
you experience are caused by exactly what science says they are. But they are also
more. One day those that were once modern humans will discover this
more-ness. It will be shown to science from outside it. What did you
think you were feeling? Surely you don't believe chemicals gave those
moments their essence? I'm really happy or sorry to tell you, you are
in contact every time you seek to be.
This reminds me of the artist and our minds. Artists connect in ways that are mindful in order to capture the more ness in the drawing and painting. You allude to the soul within using language. Artists must allude to the soul within drawings and painting. Alice
ReplyDeleteYes! It takes a focused presence to be true to the picture you paint, to say your experience in the strokes.
