billy's basic detachment practice

[Billy]

Lately my self-reflections go to every corner, every shade, and every juxtaposition of other self-reflections.  It would make a 'normal' person insane.  Today I was indulging my concern as to this condition.  And this also pertained to the tone, content, and spirit of writing here (and whether or not to write at all).

So, I did a self-remedial on billy's basic detachment practice. {always the basics!}

"REASON starts by having this idea of detachment, and paying attention to body,
feeling, and worldly manifestation as one entity.

   HOW I detach: I recognize my self-import, my own heaviness. I notice constricted
breathing, any pangs of body, or operative descriptions such as "I deserve better."

This attention is reason's handle on the controls. REASON knows it is better to move from
resentments to a more impersonal self, and does. Immediately there is a serene sense
of richer, more powerful being.

    (At first) REASON needs to identify the state of perception, and reduce it. The feelings
and associative thoughts are brought to explicit clarity, then objectified in a word, for
example 'hatred,' 'jealousy,' 'fear,' etc.

    REASON says, "Yes." {I know what this is. (Because, it does)}           >  here it was 'concern indulgence'

   REASON takes hold of the emotion to be absorbed into the whole of consciousness.  Reason reclaims power.   



    I detached just as described    ..I laughed immediately as to my useless attachment, and had unmitigated clarity
