Erasing History And Fear.

[Bob May]

But to hold onto it is to lose a more important teacher.
Jesus said; "If you don't hate mother, father, sister brother yea, Even You Own Self, you are not worthy of me".
Our "Personal History" is that which defines us. Both to ourselves and others.
To erase it is a temporary excercise for the most part. It is a tool that helps us to "Stop the World".
You will not lose any information about yourself in the process. You will lose the emotional power that those "definitions" have over you.
We are constantly reminded of our limitations by our family and friends and ourselves.
Dragging along all of the personal bagage that we have lived with all of our lives cripples us, circumscribes our view of what we are and what the World Is.
Our "Internal Dialog" does the same thing to an even greater degree because it is our own personal agreement with that view.
Once you "Stop the World", there is no longer a need to erase personal history. Because it has served it's purpose.
It is a trigger.
Once you "Stop the World" You can "Stop the World" at will.
Though it may take more or less time and effort with different people.
The single most important thing that Don Juan taught Carlos was to "Stop the internal Dialog".
With this excercise you can "Stop the World". The other excercises; breaking habits, erasing personal history etc. all help speed up the process.Bright Flame
