Dealing with Doubt and Ambiguity
ОглавлениеIt can be difficult to distinguish a clairsentient alarm bell from an unfounded fear rooted in the memory of an unresolved experience. In other words, is the woman sharpening a knife at the kitchen counter a real threat, or does she resemble someone who once was?
Negative emotional experiences are stored in the subconscious mind in long-term memory alongside the soul’s sixth sense. Both control the involuntary nervous system. Once an instinctive warning sets off the fight, flight, or freeze stress response, adrenaline surges through the body, and the rational mind is overtaken by the primitive reptilian brain, which strikes first and asks questions later.
The best way to resolve ambiguity is to clean up the subconscious. How do we stop people from pushing our “hot buttons”? We get rid of them (the hot-buttons) through personal transformation. Until then, we can mitigate the potential damage done by the reptilian brain. When we catch ourselves flaring up in anger or defensiveness, we can quickly relax, grow quiet inside, and psychically look at the buried memories that created those buttons. Mastering the inner reptile increases the power of the intellect, and tossing out the garbage leaves the subconscious calm and clear. Once we have clarity, we can trust our psychic feelings.
By far the best way to transmute emotions is to meditate. Happily, meditation is the natural way to increase psychic sensitivity, as it puts us in direct touch with the psychic soul.
