I used to be pretty pessimistic, always finding what is wrong
in the world. I would scan my surroundings, first finding what is wrong in virtually
anything to make me feel better, even to the point of making it a strong point
in my career. I learned this from my father who saw the unpleasantness in the
world, making his feelings it into art. This never made him happy nor did it work for me. When I
kept seeing well-adjusted people content with their lives, even under stress,
coming out O.K. I pondered with a puzzled mind if those people were born under
a golden moon. Longing, even at early age, for peace and acceptance with whatever
comes, instead of taking everything as a personal attack.
So, finally wisdom arrived when I started to meditate many years
ago, leading up to my current practice of two hours a day. Currently, with the virus
pandemic, I will miss my yearly 30-day Vipassana. But, I can rest easy with all
my sessions of NeuraSonic, that I have done in the past and now with his
current downloads of easy one hour sessions… I can still peel deeper layers of traumas,
some laid down recently with the chaos of the moment, stuck at home, wondering
if there will ever be a normal world. With my new mind and an equanimous mood, I look at the
beautiful clouds and sky produced by less pollution of cars and planes with
wonder and those gentle waves of body chills start.
