Guest guest Posted March 6, 2006 Report Share Posted March 6, 2006 Ahhhh yes! Once it knows we are watching conditioned mind really kicks it up a knotch. BAM! I just got a DVD from Eckhart Tolle on the Pain Body and he uses this description of " feeding " as well. Ooh! and I just bought this book by Sakyoung Mipham and the first four chapters are about the Tiger. Seems it is an old Buddihist metaphore as well. Pretty cool, isn't it when we hear the same story in different languages and even from different places and times? We are pretty repetative us humans, seems we invented the wheel and never learned how to get OFF. As for feeding the Tiger ... I'm afraid that even in my vegetarian house there is still plenty of food for it to thrive. Got to watch every morsel we leave out. EM > > Just wanted to post a bit of a warning.
