RE: Stay Still, Like A Block Of Wood
Thank you @dragosroua. You have given me something to think about.
I get the concept of not taking any action and observing but I feel like that's not the point of living. I think we are here, on this planet at this time for the experiences that making choices and taking actions create. Good, bad or indifferent.
"Stay still, like a block of wood" refers only to the situation that we identify, through awareness, as having a potentially toxic outcome. In that moment, when we feel like doing something that may turn out wrong, just stay still, like a block of wood. Don't yell at somebody. Don't buy that thing you don't really need. Don't make assumptions.
It doesn't, in any way, suggest lack of action, or not making choices. On the contrary, it is meant to create a space for taking the right decision and acting wholeheartedly towards that decision.
Hope this makes things clearer. A bit. :)
Yes it does. With more clarification, I now understand the concept as it should be applied moment by moment. I always ask myself: "Will this choice I am about to make, serve my higher purpose?" Then, once I receive guidance, from my higher-self, (because that's who I am really consulting when I think about things)...I make a choice and take action. Even if I choose to do nothing, it's still a conscious choice and I think that's part of the concepts that you have presented. Encouraging us to be conscious or present in the choices and actions we make or take.
Yes. Precisely. :)
Yes and by giving more time to important decisions consequently creating a better experience , you will be more aware of the causes and effects of your actions.
The best thing that can come out is seeing what will unfold and choosing if you want to take part in that or creating another option.
Yes. I am forever running outcome scenarios, so that I can choose to create my optimal time-line or reality stream.
