Why with Fear People Don't Eat nor Sleep Well

Why with Fear People Don't Eat nor Sleep Well - (2256)

Short Answer

Basically because we deny those things to ourselves when fear or anxiety is in our human machine. Read on though, to understand why…

Fear Produces Anxiety

Fear produces anxiety, and anxiety is about the anticipation of the negative effects that the consequences of something will have on us.

That something could be unknown to us, residing deep within our subconscious or something that we do know about such as an error that we have committed or a difficult upcoming circumstance.

In the anxious state there is a constant intruding type of "bad news'' thought, in which we think and feel that we don't deserve happiness, wellness and that includes the ability to eat and sleep. We feel that we can not have life, that it must be deprived of us or degraded somehow, and so as life is to enjoy eating, sleeping, relaxing, walking, being with friends, talking, joking etc. our ability to eat and sleep is taken from us by our own selves.

It is Our Own Selves

It is ourselves that deprives us of our own well-being, through these negative thoughts.

Even though sometimes, everything is fine our mind believes it is not, that things will go wrong, or crumble or turn out to be a disaster.

Karmic Psychology

This type of negative thinking belongs to a karmic psychology that we have created for ourselves over the many years that we have erred and have accrued karma.

The special strong force, that such negative thinking has over us, is due still to our unpaid karma.

The only way we can overcome this, is by paying and working very hard, bloody hard, to pay off that karma so to reduce that force of the negative thinking to a degree that we can manage it.

Attention with Mind, Attention with Essence - (5197)

These two attentions are different. Attention with the mind tires the brain. and reduces the flow of life into steps, where it is inevitable that the narration of the mind begins to take over. With the awareness of steps comes a certain tediousness and the feeling of the flow of life leaving us behind. With the attention of mind very little of what's behind events comes to us... Attention with the essence brings the power of presence, in other words brings a certain depth and continuity of flow Attention with the essence doesn't tire or strain and opens doorways into perceiving what is behind events and the thoughts and feelings that appear within us. It allows us also to flow with the flow of life, which is a pleasant feeling. Conclusion, make the essence bring attention to outer and inner life. End (5197).

The Sacred Substance Askokin - (962)

Introduction In simple terms, the sacred Askokin substance is the result of the mercury and the sulphur. It is the transmuted energy that crystallises to form the internal bodies (astral, mental and causal). In other words, it is the transmutation of our sexual energies. The Abrustdonis’ and ‘Helkdonis that Gurdjieff mentions in the excerpt below, taken from “Belzeebub’s Tales to His Grandson” are none other than the elements of mercury and the sulphur so spoken about in Alchemy. Excerpt on the Sacred Substance Askokin “I first learned that the destiny of beings arising on this planet of yours is chiefly to elaborate—by means of the process of their existence—the vibrations required by Nature for the maintenance of those former parts of the planet now called Moon and Anulios, when, do you remember, I became worthy personally to converse for the second time with His Conformity the then still Angel, but now Archan...

Wisdom from the Movie “Kingdom of Heaven” - (2168)

Introduction There are some movies that leave you with some pieces of advice that at point or another in your life or in the lives of others prove useful. This movie: “Kingdom of Heaven” was terrible to watch (too many battle scenes and people dying) but offered some very useful messages. In this post, I have presented a few, that have come in handy at point or another. Just to give you a bit of context, the movie is about the crusades, where the French and English were trying to defend the “Holy City” – Jerusalem from Islamic occupation. The topic of religion and God is a constant theme in the movie. It is very violent though, matching it frankly, quite awful to watch. Your Soul is in Your Keeping Alone An interesting dialogue between the French appointed king of Jerusalem and French Knight, the protagonist of the movie. Note, the king wears that metal mask because he has leprosy. King Baldwin I...
