gentlemen,
I SAY YOU Q !!!!!!!!!!
that is the bottom line effect, goal and philosophy of a lot of the step-by-steps I keep trying to explain
TRANSCENDENCE is exactly the correct word
agree re: newbies - they are often in anxiety & great fear
important to understand FEAR and FAITH are mutually exclusive
the meaning of FAITH here is nonreligious-
it is faith in the understanding that you will be OK and life can & will go on, CH or not
that CAN be learned if one is willing to give it a try
short form:
Problem: it hurts like hell
Solution: SO WHAT, IT IS MEANINGLESS
I guarandamtee you
IT WORKS
PS:
re: the "euphoria" aftrer an attack release
absolutely
my theory is when we are in the pain phase, the body responds with huge doses of endorphins
(or could be Lik M Aid candy for all I know)
while we are in the attack condition, it is probably helping
then, the attack spontaneously releases
(as they do)
and WOW WOW the existing level of feel good stuff kicks in
he's right -
somehow we haven't talked about this for a long time,
but I experience it
(like someone said - when not carrying a heavy cumulative load of drugs)
and it has been brought up on occasion
so I say it's REAL
