Beyond Questions

Beyond Questions

Now, passing over questions and conflicts is a nice thing. No, it's
better than that. It is uniquely releasing and wonderfully relaxing,
and sometimes even feels so good that I chuckle to myself.

As we have now noted, it also allows new and other questions to flow,
including the old "silly" ones you were taught not to ask, and those
you decided you could never figure out and gave up on (like the Zen
riddles), and even encourages the idea as to what questions we're not
asking yet but can now if we want to.

Flowing these questions and indeed, thus encouraging "question flow"
rather than endless loops on the same old ones is really a most
wonderfully welcome gift to me - and that is even quite regardless of
any "answers" emerging.

But those "answers" are a topic for another time.

Here, I would like to consider what we do after we've set up the
question flow with all that free time and space of mind :-)

So, and as I'm entirely unused to having all this free space and my
own thought-mind is still operating at the speed of knots, or speed of
light more like, I have found some other uses for the Thought Flow
system, other things that can be handed over and when you do, make you
feel real good too and cause some interesting effects.

First, some more thought-mind examples, a simple list really for you
to look down and notice if any one of these catches your attention.

Wishes. "I want a magic wand!"

Needs. "I really need some more space in my life!"

Forbidden Desires, wishes, wants and needs.

Decisions and "Realisations" (which in NLP are interchangeable) - "I
realised that my mother didn't love me."

Knowings. "I know I'm just not good enough." Now those really rock if
you allow yourself to consider what you know and have the courage to
pass them on. (And if you don't, that's just as interesting in every
shape or form imaginable!)

Truths. Beyond knowings, there's the truth. THE truth. Can you hand it
over? And the question as to what might happen if you did, likewise?
:-)

Now, you may or may not have noticed, we are beginning to turn some
kind of corner here.

"Giving" the higher processing systems a "truth" is actually
structurally different from asking a question or making a demand -
it's like you are passing on something *precious*, something
*valuable* for a change.

Here are some more treasures and riches.

Secrets. This is really, really powerful stuff. And the deeper and
darker the secret, the more *precious* it becomes. Strange but true.

Achievements. "I am an excellent teacher." - "I earned my PhD."

Values. This can be tough stuff but what a gift, especially if they
are YOUR OWN top values and really important to you. Examples are "the
principles of love", "freedom", "health", "my love for my family",
"actualising myself through my work", etc.

Failures. No, I'm not kidding, real moments of deepest, darkest
failures are extremely powerful in their own right, and the passing
along of these is a powerful gift indeed.

Talents. A word derived from an old measuring device, each one of us
is said to have some talents in some areas (and by definition, not in
others). I personally have always considered my personal talents to be
both a blessing and a curse and of course, they are. Time to hand them
over.

Anti-Talents. That's all the talents you think you don't have and the
more bitterly envious you are for the lack of those, handing them over
once and for all will be the sweeter a gift for your totality. NB. If
the term talents doesn't make any sense to you, they are also
sometimes called resources or qualities or character traits.

Life's Work and including Art. We all make decisions as to what we're
doing here and those of us who think we've found our life's work might
have a hard time passing this jewel over.

Now, we are moving into another class of "gifts for the soul" again.

Dreams. Now by that I don't mean waking dreams but real "dream
dreams" - things you've dreamed about and you have remembered, had
them with you for a long time, whatever they may be.

Memories. It's a really sad side effect from running entire
incarnations via the thought-mind that we think we need to carve
precious moments into some kind of stone. Taking photos of that family
christmas and this is just an external representation of what the
thought-mind tries to do so "I will never forget this moment". Good
and bad alike, this is an anti-flow device and a disturbance to how
the systems of the totality should run of the highest order.

Guiding Stars and Dark Night Of The Soul moments. You might need the
Snow Globe technique for these as they have components that cannot be
handled in thought alone but these are indeed, the defining moments
and highlights of an incarnation - the greatest gifts for the higher
processing systems I have come across so far.

This list is of course, by no means exclusive; but it is a start.

These are not instructions, they are only ideas.

Let your own self be your guide, and under all circumstances be kind
to yourself in all your endeavours.
