Big one this morning

I'm a visual thinker, but when I communicate (feedback) with the Universe (story of the hourglass), I just realized that the language of the universe is sensation, not words, not feelings, not 'pictures' (2D representations of 3D world). Temple Grandin is well-known autistic author of Animals in Translation (she's responsible for much of the improvements of our treatment of food animals). She made the correlation between autistics and animals, that they both think in 'pictures'.

Well, because of my experience with the hourglass, I've come to think that what she really means by pictures is sensations from the senses of the body. That's how animals would see the world. I think 'pictures' was the best word she could come up with because she's human with language capabilities. What these 'pictures' really feel like is a gestaltic combination of thinking, feeling, visuals, sensations...and maybe something spiritual -- really hard to describe.

The Secret, as I'm paraphrasing from friends who have read it, focuses on details as the way to communicate with the universe. As per Gracie anyway, "Make as detailed a picture as you can (eg, what kind of man I want in my life), write it down in great detail, and meditate on it, send it out there, in a detailed picture. Instinctively, I did not think this was the way to do it. Then the hourglass happened, and I got a general picture of how it more likely works. Then this morning, it solidified.

My trying to create detailed plans and instructions on how to eat and get healthy is like the detailed list of mate-qualities that she was talking about. What I need to do is get these gestaltic things going -- overall sensation flashes of the way I want to be: healthy, fit, vital. The thing is that they've always happened on their own accord up to this point. Now I need to learn and practice how to cause them to happen by my choice.

Then I realized that not only do I need to flash on physical health, but I need to include with that the love, acceptance, and compassion for others that will keep my new energy bound as a positive force and effect. I reminded myself of my 'open-hand' policy that I learned because of my issues with Michael early 2010, and the picture of that (I always reminded Michael of this by holding my hand out palm up) reminded me of your posture exercise to settle the shoulders and your point about the depictions of Jesus.

Whew!
