How does one gain enough energy to move out of the intent of the first attention with out a teacher?
The quick answer is personal unbending intent, but in a way that is not really enough if the intent is misdirected. What I did was continually use my daily life and my interaction with it, and stalked myself. A honest appraisal, of my motivations for what I did, and taking some chances at times, that would be considered unordinary, small things at first, then as I gained in familiarity with the process, took on bigger things, that in turn amped up my personal power, enough to see when I was acting in the world from the attributes of the first attention, which have been called by others, and works for me, actions based on self importance.
This process could be reduced to "starting to see the energetic framework that the first attention uses to bind the AP and the those around it, to behave in the way it does"
If in this short spurt of words the possibility to get across to you or anyone something that would help is that energetically speaking, information is energy, the first attention will lie, and use manipulation to get what it wants, and this leads to energy drains and vampiristic interaction in most first attention interaction, from things like beefing up self importance, to wallowing in self pity and the pity of others. So strategically disengaging from first attention actions once it is recognized, for what it is, is step one.
When I say lie, that is not necessarily the obvious straight up lie, but the subtle one that sits in us and is so familiar that it seems like it is not there, directing our behavour, yet it is, That once you notice it, you can shine a light on it more and more and as you do that, the thing that drains your energy looses more and more of its hold and in this way energy is saved.
Saving energy then is like building a mountain, bit by bit, and as you climb again and again to the top struggling to put another piece on, you start seeing further and further, until you have the energy to gently, slip out of the intent of the first attention.
Look for information that empowers you and anything that you come across that does not give you a boost, isn't.
