As an avid reader, I consume a multitude of words. The non-fiction subject matter is often the same, but each author expresses his or her understanding differently. THE DIAMOND IN YOUR POCKET written by Gangaji is somehow very palatable and taking me deeper within my presence.
In Gangaji's discussion of the impact of positive or negative, she states we accumulate stories that are immediately applicable to emotion. If we simply remain present in our core and neither 'hide' nor 'seek' an emotion cannot penetrate into our authentic self as all emotion has a beginning and an ending. We learn to stand in truth with all else stripped away. This reduces the trigger of the emotion.
We are conditioned by our culture and we tell our lovely selves stories tainted by false interpretation and we consistently create chaos. By not automatically reacting, we can easily watch fear or anger come and go. As we experience the depth of our presence, we view the human being existence before us, and truth becomes more apparent . This helps us to better understand and remain in our connection with all things.
