The Advantage of Acceptance is that when you really accept a situation as it is, you suddenly stop producing negative thoughts which generate suffering : Catastrophizing, Why this ? Why this happens to me ? This will never stop or go away and so on. Remember "pain is necessary, suffering is optional" this is the main lesson of Buddhism

Absolutely! 😊✌

It's impossible to override the reptillian survival brain, if something truly traumatic happens in your life, you cant just simply 'accept' and all goes away. Sometimes a lot of healing needs to happen which can take years, especially childhood & ancestral traumas.

​​@@jayong1977 Absolutely nobody ever said that Acceptance happens overnight, most of the time it needs a lot of efforts and time and as they say time heals everything.

Yes Amen❤🙏

There is already nothing wrong with absolutely anything including having a very active mind. That’s what’s happening = the absolute appearing as an active mind. How can that be right or wrong? The only apparent problem is that subtle belief you have that this as it already is shouldn’t be and that includes having or not having a very active mind as if you have any choice over that matter. It’s freedom, that you ignore noticing btw, appearing as a busy mind which is already everything you have ever longed for because it excludes nothing and is everything, and that freedom is the freedom to have a busy mind. Yes, there is nothing separate from anything, not even that apparent “you” 😂 No one escapes freedom. ❤

You can only opt out of thinking, when you would rather die than remain trapped in thought

I also have very active mind and Eckhart helps me much with his guidance

“On letting go we find our grip”… the active mind gets in the way of greatness ✨

Autosuggestion is an overlooked tool. Emile Coue discovered it in the 1800s when he had half his patients say to themselves each morning, "every day, in every way, I'm getting better and better." The ones who said it (didn't even believe it, just doing what they were told) showed demonstrable improvement compared to the other half. It's been studied & repeatedly shown to be real. EFT/Tapping is the same principle, but with more emphasis (knocking it into yourself).

My psychologist has alway told me that quote. Daily positive affirmations are very good.

But it is not fair that some ppl have it worst. I cannot accept my pain, fatigue, anxiety.

@@m3kbeatz _"I cannot accept my pain, fatigue, anxiety.."_ That too is a form of autosuggestion. If you tell yourself something isn't fair and you can't accept it, the odds are 100x higher that that's what you'll identify with, feel more truly as your reality, manifest it, etc. I don't know what your situation is. But, there's always someone suffering more. I see blind people and can't begin to understand what it would be like to be me (with all the wrongs done to me _and_ that impediment). Yesterday I saw a morbidly obese woman in wheelchair at a bus stop. I have the luxury of getting in my car when I want, go where I want, without that indignity (I actually saw her the day before. It stood out to me even more how down I'd be on myself if I had to struggle that way _in addition to_ my mental problems). There's a lot to be thankful for. Often we "get" something from dwelling on how unfair things are. We reject reality as it is (including the good things that others would feel blessed to have). But, I know where you're coming from (without knowing your details). Wrongs/injustices/unfairness are real and worthy of recrimination. That's the irony. You're perfectly justified in focusing on that. But, where does it lead? What do you get from it?

Well said Jane., Accept your non acceptance too. Good

Thank you!

💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💕💕💕

Well-put.

👏 👏👏 love this you are absolutely correct

No its not. It is not fair some ppl have it worst and must live the same life.

​@@m3kbeatzyou're right, it's not fair, but what is the point in resisting that fact of life? It solves nothing, and causes you more suffering in the mind.

​@m3kbeatz you never know what their reality is, you think they have things you want to own or have, but what is their reality even with those things only they'll know

Haha yes. Such laughter and wisdom he inspires and imparts. :)

Im allowed

❤

That is very profound. I have written that down in my diary. Thank you.

❤❤❤

Simply start occupying the mind ..drawing knitting this is a simple but successful approach.

Love this!

No they don't. Whoever said youth is wasted on the young? But someday , if they live long enough, they will get it.

Ohhhh

@@Maribelinda63 it all starts and ends with presence. Reading the “power of now” in the year 2000 really changed my life.

How do YOU go into Presence? Thank you...

@@gloriasilence Everytime I think about it I stop my thoughts and place gentle focus on breath body and everything but focus on n othing..just BE. I go deeper into it in meditation and augment it with heart-brain coherence and a simple breath formulas I use that I teach students that allows you to hold your presence longer...

@@TheMediumChannel Thank you for your reply... It's the heart-brain coherence I must be interested in...or so it seems...in this moment... 🤗

Well-said. I never try to "go back" but work from the point of changed reality. Also: Sorry, Angela... I think I might have responded to one of your comments before. Are you the one with the sick husband? Not trying to creep you out... but I am German and (I think) I clearly remember the name...and the woman was in pretty dire straights

@@moonhunter9993 yes! He was in a coma all of November on life support. Thanks for remembering. He’s still with us and doing better. It ain’t over until it’s over right enough. I had a freak out that day I posted. Hope you are doing well❤️

I once experienced had a kensho experience where my body and mind dropped. Felt like I melded with everything and as they say returned to my true home. Felt a happiness that was so familiar. Didn’t last but that taste of myself was so familiar. So I felt like my old self.

It’s a small space but a GREAT space for me, the relief is magnified by the acceptance 🙏

Love this as well ❤

Acceptance is freedom. Now you allow the universe to unfold infinite possibilities according to your preference, not resistance. 24 March 2023.🤪✡💖🌹🐼🌺💰🌬🕯🌛🐧

Radiate the tiny bits of love within you, moment by moment , with attention to your direct environment . We are are children of earth climbing the stairs of universal conciousness . much love to you , walk on and have faith . Much love to you

Never give up on yourself….just hold on each day, each moment and practice self care because your open and honest message has helped others (with the same issue) not feel alone. YOU are not alone ….there are many out there suffering the same. I am going to try and practice this acceptance myself it’s not something I will find easy! ❤having been a fighter all my life

Thank you

_"I don’t like this world. It’s cold and cruel."_ Liking it (or not) doesn't change it. That's radical acceptance. If you were dropped in the middle of the ocean with 5-20 minutes to live, almost nothing you think about (value judgements about how reality should be) would enter your mind. You would have an entirely different, un-narrated reality. The chattering mind wouldn't be of any comfort. You would face raw reality, this is how it is; nothing I tell myself will change it. You can have that without being dropped in the middle of the ocean. It already exists. You're just believing your story because you can, it's a habit, etc.

I like the way you've put it at the last line that "its not a punishment but a guide to let us know that we are MISSING a Mark"🙌

Will connecting your WhatsApp, thanks much. From Singapore.

Accept that it's difficult to accept.

I agree, some things are not acceptable.

i had some Tolle CDs where he answered a similar question, he said that the ideal would be to accept & allow everything to come & go just as it is, in this moment, ok, that's the ideal, but he went on to explain that, when it seems that it is just too much to accept, whether in grief, loss, the death of a loved one, etc., on these occasions though the ideal would be to accept, if u cannot, _you can at least_ _accept how you feel_ _about it_ & this is not just a cop out or clever wordplay, it's a two tiered, or two layered approach, there's the ideal of completely allowing & accepting what is, & then, if u feel you just cannot do that, then the next best thing u can do is be present with yourself & accept & allow how you feel about this. this teaching has come back to me time & again & i realize that what this practice does for me (when i remember it) is it stops my disconnect, i don't just throw my feelings under the bus, deny "reality" & move on, no, i'm facing my limitations, of my ability to surrender & accept, & just feeling, and being with that, not abandoning my feelings, but accepting them. the teaching was from a 6 CD series of Tolles, from 10+ yrs ago, called ~living the liberated life~ (ive since found it on YT, but it gets taken down?) at the end was a Q & A, & on the last question a woman stood & asked him how she could deal with loss, & the death of someone close to her. (her husband?) & his answer (to me) was very simple & profound, i no longer have the cds, but i remember that part of his answer to her, the part where If u are overwhelmed & it seems that u just cannot accept something, to be present, as much as you can, and accept how you feel about it. 🙏💜🕯️🌱🐾👣🌿🌎🕊️

I’ve had deep sorrow deep trauma and deep troubles in my life and still, Eckhart speaks truth, accept his depth of love and wisdom It changes your peace healing and love Not your problems just how your can manifest them to change your existence with them and perspectives of it all I highly recommend “The Power of Now” And take your care in reading this In one section, possibly the prologue it states that this book should be reread many times for you may need to revisit as you fulfill and grow precious being❤️🙏 I’ll never forget the day it found it’s way into my hands, at the t

I didn’t know it then because I was so lost hopeless and helpless, IT PLANTED MY SEED , it’s a few years later but as you can see I’m here I’m listening I’m learning and I’m accepting and yes loving and praying for you ❤🙏❤️

​@@mindsigh4 thanks very much

Accept in the now dearest❤

Yes me as well and I just accept it. It does feel better. But I do wonder where the sadness arises from
