As you were explaining, I had a huge realisation. The owner of our company is always shouting and being aggressive in the office (never towards me) but I’ve felt so on edge because of it and I realised this is the same environment I had when I was a child at home. And as a unicorn, I’m clearly feeling on edge and claustrophobic in the office in that environment. I have a couple of questions: Would a lion in my position thrive in this environment? This environment at work started changing about 6months ago when the owner became more involved in the business so is there a reason for the sudden shift? Did my energy/self trigger something to attract this at that moment? Because a year ago, this dynamic and environment didn’t exist Finally, other than this realisation, is there anything I can do to let go of this energy/dynamic?

Wow! what great questions. First, a Lion would feel triggered and shamed by the boss. They would feel viewed as not good enough, criticized and attacked. 6 months ago when the boss showed up, your Limbic System identified him as the "parent" and that's when this emerged for you. Did you attract this? I'm sure your energy did not shift. This just uncovered your issue that had been there all along. So what do you do? Two things: Everytime you react to the boss, ask youself what does this have to do with my parent? Don't try to answer the question. Just let it hang in the air and let your nonconscious mind serve up the answers so you can connect the dots. This will lead to an ah ha moment where the association your Limbic System is making will be laid bear as it is happening. Number Tow: Your boss in probbly a Lion. Look through the shouting and aggressive behavior. Remember Lions want acceptance and approval. So don't shrink from him. He will view that as personal rejection. This question is so good, Kristina and I will do an episode and address this. Does this help?

Thank you, Mark and Kristina, for dedicating a whole video to breaking down my concerns. I think my misunderstanding was in the way you are using the term "thought". To me, a "thought" is whatever comes in to my conscious awareness. Some thoughts are happy, some sad, some neutral, some wise, some deluded. The journey of life for me is about arriving at greater understanding. I actually respect my thoughts, even though some are troubling. I've always been skeptical about Eastern mystical traditions that seem to preach transcendance of all thought for the reasons i mentioned earlier. I think you define "thoughts" as not originating from the Higher Self and therefore not to be respected. It seems like you would say that people should trust gut instincts or emotions, but not fleeting ones, rather those that seem to be guided by Higher Wisdom. There's nothing to argue with here. BUT, it would be fascinating to delve into HOW one can discern between trustworthy and untrustworthy guidance. The mere notion of "disidentifying" is unsatisfying, in my view, although I understand that you are trying to liberate people from needless suffering. In short, I wish not to just clear my head of thoughts, but to fill it with good things. Thank you again 💓 I will keep watching

Amazing video as always! Thanks Mark and Kristina I have a question that touches on passion, would that mean our desires are coming from the limbic brain resulting to the fact that desires are really not my desires. Would that mean I’m not to follow these desires? How would that fit with ‘following your passion’ ?
@DrMarkWaller
@DrMarkWaller 10 күн бұрын
Desires and passion definitley come from the Limbic System, more specificallly the Amagdala. You can certainly follow your passion. But the point is that you are not passion, you are not sadness, you are not thoughts or perceptions. You are not your mental or emotional activity. You experience all of these things. Therefore your are the knower of passion, the experiencer of emotion. You are free to fully embrace passion without identifying with it. So follow your passion. It's your choice to go on that ride.

But what if my thoughts are telling me positive things? Then I can't believe those either, eh? So then I am just lost in a morass of confusion and lack of understanding? This can't possibly be good.. This exercise seems to be encouraging people to be morally and spiritually adrift, "not believing anything", and just "going with the flow". This is very convenient for outside manipulators and tyrants to take control and convince us of things, since we are being trained to disbelieve the "thought" that says "this is wrong". If I'm disidentified with all thought, then what???

This is such a smart question! Imagine if you confused youself to be your shirt. Would it matter whether it was black or white? The fact is that your are not a shirt. The same thing applies to thoughts. It doesn't matter if thoughts are positive or negative. The fact is that you are not your thoughts. And in fact you are not lost as a result. We are only talking here about verbal thought. Most of the brain is nonverbal, especially the right hemisphere. When I recognize your face, this is done by millions and millions of parallel processors in the brain. I nonverbally recognize you. I don't have to say, "That's Larry," to know who you are. So our moral compass and so much of what we rely on to guide us in life comes to us nonverbally. Waking up from our identification from verbal thought brings clarity and focus rather than shifting the earth beneath our feet. Please feel free to continue this dialog. You are obviously a seriouis person and I appreciate the opportunity to interact with you.

Eckhart Tolles Strong Intuitive Impuls, was Forced by his emotional crisis, therefore it became un-harmonic, twisted. Hes age 26. at the event, indicate that it is his second incarnation, of having strong Glimpses. In first period after his experience, people left his speeches in large numbers, because his intelligence was missing in his presentation. Well he found his harmony, and got order into it. Sadhguru was also 26 when he had a very strong glimpse, sometimes he also miss his intelligence, and confuse the matters. But both have the experience of being Eternal Living, had passed the major Mile-stone.

We repeat earlier stages from sperm-cell to age of 30, four last from 19, 2-2½-3-3½, so from about 26-30, marks our last Life. First time people have a strong Glimpse, or Impuls, is just before 30 year old. So having Strong Experience as 26, indicate, previous incarnation. Walter Russell had his first at 7 year old, and every year i May, strongest as 49, lasted for 39 days, outside physical body. might be the most markant example, and be the Great Birth. Cosmic Consciousness.

The more casual you are about the practice the less ego involvement there is. People tend to overthink this exercise and turn it into a project. or talk back to their thoughts. That will absolutely block the results. The exercise is very abstract and simple. It is not directed at trying to solve a problem like a bad thought or feeling. All you do is gently notice that you are having a thought. This detachment creates a permanent separation. Feel free to reach out if you would like more help.

@DrMarkWaller Ай бұрын
You don't need to reprogram distorted childhood perceptions. What you do is recognize them for what thy are and then they loose their grip over you. Self awarenss is the key and that's why we teach the thought watching exercise. It results in an awakening. After that you can easily see these patterns. I see little or no benefit in affirmations. They are like putting lipstick on a pig. If the child brain is trying to survive something it perceives it must respond to, there are no amount of affirmations that will override that.

"the awareness of the pattern is the release." I have experienced this before. As soon as I identified a specific tactic in my behavior, I never felt compelled to do it again. As SOON as I recognized it, that very moment. I felt a sort of lift, or unlocking, or like a tangled up cord was set straight. 😂 I was learning which presenting behaviors were considered to be a specific negative trait (I don't remember which. Maybe dismissive?); I could tell my understanding of it wasn't properly identifying the behavior in the people around me. For example, when I would tell someone what was happening in my life, they felt comfortable saying "that behavior is selfish," whereas I didn't feel comfortable making that determination. To a fault, unfortunately. I know most struggle with negative judgements; I struggle most projecting decency where there is none, in others. So, as I studied up on what these traits can show up as in every day dynamics, it sort of revealed itself to me. I had been frustrated about someone else engaging in the behavior, naturally. I was cleaning the house later that day (after having found and grasped a solid definition), and it suddenly dawned on me, that *I did that thing.* I didn't immediately go into shaming. It was a sort of realization WITH acceptance, I wasn't going to put myself down for my patterns. It wasn't until self acceptance (informed by Kristen Neff), that I was able to identify a pattern like that, and then feel it lift away. In years prior, when I started to see something in myself, I feel like I would pretty quickly get sucked into the shame cycle, to unconsciously avoid looking at it clearly.

Hi there. Thanks for covering this topic. In my own inquiry and observation, it is unclear whether I am spiritually bypassing when I am not in anguish and I see through an exalted spiritual lens. I look at free will, and see my self acting and cogitating. Sometimes experience is unpleasant and I resist it, so I suffer. But it seems once free will is seen to be illusory, the lived experience is less neurotic, less self-conscious. I have CPTSD, so it may be a lifetime of shedding old baggage and giving love and presence to old wounds... I suspect there's a realization/liberation/disidentification with self that I still have not experienced. But, I do see the greed-hatred-delusion that binds this being here to the 3D struggle.

Thanks for the well articulated comment. The realization you seek is a direct result of doing the exercise oiutlined in the video. I know it sounds too simple. But it is elegant and effective because it is simple. So, no, you do not have to spend a lifetime shedding baggage. There is a stream of thought with which we identify that recreates emotional/psychological problems. When you dis-identify you go free. If I might assist, let me know.

Mark, this concept of the shadow self is fascinating. I have been discussing it with my wife for the past hour. Incredible and eye opening. Would you say then that we are born both lion and unicorn and it is in the formative years when the shadow self develops, and we settled into one or the other? If so, then the "real self" is only a construct of convenience to help us "survive" childhood? So, now that I can identify my shadow, what do I do with this knowledge? Is the idea here to be aware of it so as to not delve into too much emotional upset when triggered by partners, co-workers etc.? This is a very valuable insight. Thank you.

We are born either a Lion or a Unicorn. It is literally a biological difference in the brain. Then whatever happens during the forst formative years sets the trajectory of how dramatic those patterns become. The Shadow become those parts of us that our caregivers signal are not accceptable so we bury those tendencies. We then project those on to others and attack when we see our shawdow part in them.

What do you do when you know this is you but can't seem to control it? What type of therapy or practice helps with passive aggressive behavior? I don't do this with my spouse, but I have a real problem doing this with my in-laws. I'm finding your videos helpful. Thank you!

The antidote is self-awareness. When you see it happening in rel life, right in front of you, you can immediately pull out of the behavior and see where it actually comes from. I highly recommend ouir videos that tlk about the voice in your head. The thought watching practice leads to a breakthrough in self-awareness. Feel free to follow up with me if you want to go more in depth.
