Our own painkillers

Posted on by philipdodson

When we accept our unhappiness, when we accept our anger, frustration, fear, worry anxiety and all these negative emotions and energies we allow them to be. We take the energy from them, we recognise that they are there and stop the fight.

It is the internal fight and denial of these things that lead to the suffering, they create negative vibrational frequencies and energies within us, that affect our mental and physical health. It is felt in every cell of our body and it remains there if we keep fighting it. In addition, we transmit them to others. We send out our negative energies and they affect others too and then how they react with us. We get trapped in on our negative energy, it’s just reflected back at us and so it continues.

It is always the resistance to what is, the denial of what has already occurred, that cause the friction, the tension, the negativity, the pain within. When we let go and welcome and accept all feelings and emotions, whatever they are, then there will be peace within. When we accept and welcome our unhappiness, it takes away its negative energy, we are no longer feeding the pain through our fight against not wanting to be unhappy.

We feed our own internal pain, when we let go, accept, we create your own ‘painkillers’, by our surrender to what is and then we change the negative energy to positive energy. It comes through our presence and consciousness.

Attached

Getting attached to our views and opinions only leads to conflict with others and suffering within. When our ego gets involved and we become attached to our views we become them and the ego will literally fight to death in the extreme to avoid being wrong. We no longer hear the other person, we go into a defence mode that means we will do almost anything to make sure we are right and the other is wrong…win at all costs.

When attachment is there then comes the reaction, the emotions, the anger and the victim/punisher mode towards others becomes activated if the other person is in disagreement. We feel it inside, we pump adrenaline and cortisol into our bodies and as it is a verbal battle, normally not physical, then the argument causes damage to us both mentally and physically as the chemicals are not released. All this suffering and cost to ourselves and others just to defend a simple temporary mental construct of our mind, a view.

It does not mean we can not have a view on something, it simply means to not make our views personal in terms of our story and not to attach anything to them. Then there is no need to defend anything or be right. When we accept contrary view points and others, when we accept that our views are just an opinion and that we do not need to be right, then we can present our view from a position of inner calm and then the other person will reflect that and will not feel the need to be defensive or react.

Peace within leads to peace outside and that can not happen all the time we are attached to our views and our ego.
