That is not the right question. I am limited in my response, Please ask again! (i-robot)
Some of us have gone to school, classes and workshops and others have read more books than most people can fathom.
For me, I started by reading and asking questions. Later I went to classes and workshops, but in the end it seemed I was driven to read many, many books and LIVE. With each book I read I found I had more questions. I traveled as much as I could. I went camping. I completed weekend survival courses. I learned to hike, climb and repel down mountains. And I kept questioning each new topic. I was never content with one answer. I questioned EVERYTHING AGAIN and I talked with my friends and others who were on a corresponding path.In the end, I followed my own intuition and learned that EVERYONE is RIGHT and EVERYONE is WRONG!!
Each of us must determine our own truth and NO ONE is on the same exact path and not everything I do, or someone else does, will sit right with you!
So, back to the question; how do you learn everything I have learned? You don't. BUT, by experiencing life and allowing yourself to be free you will learn equally important truths and maybe even on the same topics.
If you decide to travel somewhere, go! and experience that place in the most natural way that you can and you will find your own lessons and you will learn the answers to your lessons. How can I tell you what to do about a situation I have NEVER been in? I may have encountered a similar situation and I can tell you what I did, but what I did may not be right for the outcome you want. THINK! LISTEN! and use your INTUITION!!!
Learning does not come from a book! You may question this as I had just said I read a lot of books. Yet, in the end I also said I had to follow my intuition. This is the ANSWER! Use your intuition!!
So, there you have it. I learned everything I know by reading, asking, talking, questioning and in the end trusting my intuition and then question my intuition still further by looking at the result of that intuitive impression.
Nothing I believe is set in stone until I have accepted MY TRUTH! And I know I cannot find anything else that fits that situation and thereby provides that same answer over and over.
My intuition is rarely wrong! And when it is, it is because I did not ask the right question.
How do I learn to trust my intuition?
That my friend is the right question!
Very nicely written. Even though everything seems like a lot to take in, at the same time it makes perfect sense. I think one of my biggest problems (aside from trusting my intuition) is the fact that I seem to be in an instant gratification mindset when what I really need to do is accept that it's going to take time and most of all practice to get to the point where all this settles well with me. But at least I know that of my self and I am taking steps to achieve that :)
ReplyDeleteYou are doing just fine Ruzzel!!!! Soon you will be able to join us for our Wednesday groups!!!
ReplyDeleteYou are so positive and right on! You basically hit the heart of Zen. Experience is the most valuable thing you can have. Often education just gives us a specific starting point, as well as a framework in which to contextualize our experiences.
ReplyDeleteOn another note, I do have a request from you...
Give me a set of specific exercises that I can use to more fully develop my own intuition!!!!!
I want to go from an intuition level of 4 to 10 in ten easy steps! I want these ten easy steps! I know you have them, stop holding out on us girl!
Hi Bobby!
ReplyDeleteYou and your S/O are welcome to come to the meditation and spiritual development group. That said. The best thing you can do is learn to meditate and trust the images/messages/sounds/smells and other things that come in to your mind while you are meditating.
BTW I have a Ghost to investigate! When are you up for it??
