How To Deal With Strong Sensations or Energies That We Feel

Um, an obstacle is energetic movements and sensations, generally in the body, but not physical sickness mostly in my case at least, because this body is, thank God, so healthy. But yeah, generally sensations and energetic movements. And I feel I really wait for them to subside. It's as if life, as if like more than meeting with God, it's like my... I don't know what is that. It's like if everything is cooled down, like everything is in harmony, it means for me to meet with God. It's something like this, you know? I always wait for all the energies to subside, so I can share it as an obstacle because all focus is always almost there. If I'm healthy, everything is good, it's okay. But otherwise, all attention is always to fix the energetic movements and state sensations. So thank you.

Thank you. Okay, I may share something more on this in a while. So when sensations come which are very strong, what to do with them? Just try to be as empty of any judgment as possible. Empty of any interpretation: 'this must go,' 'this can be here,' 'this is good,' 'this is bad.' Because without that, you just have to leave it to God's grace once you've let go of your mind and intellect with your attention.

You can bring attention to it or try and withdraw attention from it. But when sensations are so strong, they feel so strong because our attention seems to be so fixated with those particular sensations, isn't it? So I would say don't get into a war with them. Don't try to withdraw attention too much. Gently say the name of God and see whether attention becomes a little more broader. But if it seems like a struggle, leave it. Don't worry. As long as you're empty of conceptual ideas, you're not getting trapped in fruitless thinking.

All this has to sometimes release itself, and sometimes it's very frustrating as to how long it can take for all of this to empty out. God is the best judge of that. But just trust that us sitting at the door of the temple is the best healing that can happen through us. And if all the sensations are being released, then that is a very holy release and we must allow that to happen. So not to worry about that too much and also not to look at it as too much of an obstacle. No energy, no sensations are endless. Only God is infinite. So just have to continue to be patient and allow it to release itself.

And if you get some inner prompting that indulging in a particular thing is leading to more of these kind of things being held on, then you must follow that inner prompting as well so that you have a chance to empty yourselves of all of this. But just follow your heart. Like sometimes we feel like some trauma is being released or some things are just getting out of our system, but the mind pushes things in our day-to-day life so that we end up recreating, retraumatizing ourselves in some way or the other, or creating too many reminders which almost acts like fresh trauma, you know? So we just dwell on something so much that we never actually release it. It gets released and then we bring it all back in again.
