Until I realize that a story isn't bringing me the happiness I seek, I am desensitized to the pain of that particular story. ALL stories cause pain and suffering when attached to. It's when one simply notices that this is the way it is that there is a shift - a joyful observation of what is. For me vibration is simply there...not a story...I simply notice it to be so. One of the things inquiry can't do is change reality! Reality simply is.... Blessings - Jan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 29, 2004 Report Share Posted February 29, 2004 Dear Jan: You said: " Until I realize that a story isn't bringing me the happiness I seek, I am desensitized to the pain of that particular story. " Excellent point. I had not thought about that before, but it appears to be the Truth. As you said: " ALL stories cause pain and suffering when attached to. " In that light, your previous statement makes perfect sense. How many stories am I currently desensitized to? God only knows! So when I realize that they exist and that they are not bringing me happiness, then I can inquire into them. It appears that I only realize belief in stories exists when I become aware of discomfort. The following statement does not make sense to me. However, it is not necessary that it does! " For me vibration is simply there...not a story...I simply notice it to be so. " I agree with the following statement : " One of the things inquiry can't do is change reality! Reality simply is.... " . That is what it appears I try to do with my stories. " Hopeless! " .

Guest guest Posted March 1, 2004 Report Share Posted March 1, 2004 Dear Eddie: Yes, I did attend High School. Thank you for caring. However, I only took one year of physics and that was so long ago (45 years ago), I am sure that I have long since forgotten what they tried to teach me. As I said before, if " Vibrational Theory " is what works for someone, then why would I want to convince them otherwise. It makes at least as much sense as any other story.
