I am having abysmal lethargy. I do not have an appetite to regulate anything; that is, I just absorb whatever comes along. It is not something I am at odds with; I am acquiescing like never before. I wonder at times how low I can go/lol. So, I am talking straight-up to my friends here as to why this abysmal lethargy is different (non-threatening).
I really have learned in detachment mechanics to segregate feelings from events {I automatically move past causation}. I mean, experiences have their metaphysical impact whoever or however you are. Now, the aftermath of emotions are a different story. So, slowly but surely, I comprehended to contain only the state of mind, and reduce and separate. There is tons of energy from the personal events I speak of, and that energy essentially is moved to the mind state because of my choice to isolate and confine it there. This energy would likely be problematic without prior habitual detachment, but now it is stored in the vast void of my SELF {the imaged self would be rendered hopeless (I really do not have strong ties to the imaged self anymore, but if you've read serloco lately, you'll understand there are challenges to having the SELF be truly barren)}.
Anyway, I am reminded when serloco once wrote, "I surely do love my depression." Well, I surely do love my abysmal lethargy.
When you hone objectivity on states of mind, something very pleasant happens; you begin to observe them with simple awareness. Most states are already energetically compelling to start with, so the unobstructed view is easy to maintain. You will be amazed how states of mind that were painful and repugnant can become entertainment.
Worth adding here:
Think of the advantage, if when challenged by events, you were to see opportunity in the derivative mind states.
Obviously, you take attention away from the challenge (separation/clarity), and bring openess/acquiesence to life. Instead of energy lost, there is net gain of energy.
