Impeccability and Routines

[dreamgirl]

I have noticed that whenever I need to shore up the messiness in my life, to gather energy and not waste it, I turn to the idea of "Impeccability" as per DJM. So, I try to get impeccable in all my actions, I start to address everything I have been avoiding, I start to make lists of what I need to do, I try to do everything like it was the most important thing in the world. I do and do and do, then I realize that what I have just done is to create more routines of everyday life. I am a madwoman.....does this ever happen to you?

I know how you feel. I have had 3 meals a day, every day, since I stopped breast feeding,  32 years ago...

Dreamgirl, you are in the trap of rationality and rationality is self-reflection. Yes impeccability is the key of energy storage, but thing is that you try to be impeccable in too rational way and it blow your mind. All this nagualism thing is get away from self-reflection and be sobriety with heart, with intent. But its tricky. It takes lots of will, motivation and time to learn how to be with inner silent in every days life.

The disruption of routine described by DJ has only one propose that warrior, in every days life, would act like everything he do is new, joyful.

Felt really good reading your post White Knight, lot of heart in your words and very succinctly put

[dreamgirl]

Nice post White Knight, I did forget about the joy part. Funny thing, me being called rational....hehehe

[White Knight]

Thank you for kind words,

dreamgirl why not to try not-doing in your daily life and actually it would be some changes of routine. It's not need to walk on head or sleep on the ceiling. With sobriety. The main propose of not-doing is inner silence.

You are right White Knight, inner silence is the point, perhaps this is why, sychronistically, that for the past few days I have reinstated my meditation practice. Very timely post.

Thanks White Knight, only yesterday was I tested on this rationality. someone asked me to put a vision into words and 'reflect' on what it meant to others. i ended up ranting that i wished to have no box, no walls, that my 'being' hurt, with what they were asking me to do. i suggested that although done that way in the past, this was no time to fall into old patterns...that it all should 'be' new and joyful.



Needless to say, i refused to move from my vision and i resumed my silence..

i love your external confirmation of myself (without the ranting) well put!

well known to the pain how you felt... im glad that now you have a teacher and are on the way to the impeccability. Though impeccability could be learnt from C.C. books.
