Enlightenment is the realization, that we all are already one whole Beingness. The Paradox is, that at the same time humanity is in the spiritual state of a child. What i mean by that is the lack of ability to self-reflect.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Many people ask questions about everything and nothing, but it is mostly about the outside world. Less people are actually asking questions about them-self and the idea of self in itself . To some folks life does not make sense and seem to be random. God seems to be cruel and humans totally megalomanic; Some people think, that fear has no meaning. To use meditation or other technics, in order to get rid of fear, is a common misunderstanding of our times.<\/strong> It follows a believe, that fear is the opposite of love and is a psychologically trained mindset, which can be untrained. Fear creates suffering and suffering creates beautiful lotus flowers, states the Buddha.

\nIf you are working in a kindergarten, like i do, you call a child by the name.
\nYou do not expect a child to take the same responsibilities or to perform any needed tasks, like an adult.
\nThat said, it is important to not underestimate the potential wisdom of a child and to nourish it, by giving away a little bit more or less of responsibility and trust to him .
\nA child without any boarders, (living not in nature, which has natural borders, limits and challenges), will most likely become spoiled and drunk of himself. Lost in its own confusion, thoughts and constant hunger for more, sometimes even rage and egoistic violence. All of that you can observe, working in a kinder-garden.
\nThe deepest way of love, is sometimes seemingly cruel but looked upon in a wider perspective, it can<\/strong> be Loving-Wisdom in action.
\nSometimes (not always), the cruelest teacher, can be the most loving one.
\nHow can that be? If a teacher demands SILENCE at the eating table, it may seem cruel, but when you observe how the faces and minds of the little children change from thought\/emotional drunkenness to mindful connectivity, it might change your mind. At least at the table, they learn to embrace silence. How many people in our current times can embrace total silence, without filling every gap with at least thoughts and emotions . It is in silence, where the seed of self-reflection begins to sprout<\/strong>…<\/p>\n
\nBut when we have a closer look, we might find Synchronicity, Structure, Intelligence and Meaning in all that Chaos.
\nAs more we study our self, especially our darker parts of our self and our life’s, as more we may find, that they actually do have a meaning and serve us somehow more or less obvious.
\nWe might recognize, that as long as humans keep on projecting their fears and negativity on the world and on other humans, we will continue having wars and inequity in the world we live in.
\nAs more we self-reflect, as more peace we will have and naturally equity will be formed.
\nWhen a human being self reflects, he always tends to connect with others too. That is a universal rule.
\nWhen i was younger, about 9 years old, i felt unneeded in this world and not understood.
\nI did not see my place here and felt miserable. All i wanted, was to be free of this body and mind, that i felt, wasn’t who i am .
\nAt this time i actually thought to be crazy and depressed from the age of 13 till 23.
\n10 years of good, old, solid fear-based suffering + escaping into other fantasy worlds, which i created with the help of music and books.
\nBeing a complete introvert, didn\u2019t make it easier.
\nI was even afraid to eat with somebody at the same table.
\nOnly later i realized, that it is a misunderstanding, to focus only on what people want to have.<\/strong>
\nBy seeing what people actually need, some without even knowing, i found my way of connecting .<\/strong>
\nMy experience now is:What i have to offer is something, that many people need, without even knowing.<\/strong>
\nAnd so i rather focus on the need and less on the wanting.<\/strong>
\nThis is how i found my niche in this world, where i fit in without any doubt.Where i can completely forget myself and where my purpose becomes bigger, than my ambitions…<\/strong><\/p>\n
\nIt is a matter of differentiation.
\nIt is the fear of the fear, that blocks us and not the fear itself.<\/strong>
\nThe fear of the fear is actually very useful too.
\nIt creates suffering and suffering leads us at some point, sooner or later to self-reflection.
\nNothing in this universe is meaningless except meaning itself. Nothing is useless, except usefulness. This is paradoxical and i hope it blows your mind a bit.<\/p>\n
\nFrom 10 years of working with all sorts of people, including therapists and Nlp-practitioners, i can tell you, that it is a misunderstanding, leading to more suffering on the long run, but gives you instant gratification and a more stable ego-based identity, similar to the expansion-method or any other “high-speed way” of contemplation.
\nAs i see it and some others like Carl Jung; there is no opposite to Love. Fear is part of love. There is also no unconsciousness, but only consciousness which is more or less conscious of itself. This is very simple to see, if your state of being is paradoxical based and not binary, like most of our computers (wait for the quantum-computer). You can not explain a sphere to a circle, but you can explain a circle to a sphere.<\/p>\n
\nOur collective suffering leads humanity to more self-reflection and so we as a whole, become more self aware.
\nSome people asked me yesterday at the powerful Kavana-Event, how i am using my voice in such a unique or powerful way.
\nMy secret is my fear. Although i am a Zen-teacher today, i perceive some fear in my body and mind and all other human emotions are inside me too not only my, but also the ones of all others. That is, because i reconnected with my humanness instead of meditating it away.
\nPeople who are aware of their fear, are often much more sensitive and sensible to life and spirituality and vulnerability. Look at Kate Bush for example..Sharing a fearful heart with somebody else can become the most intimate, loving moment of a human being. By letting my self fall into fear some magic happens. When fear and opened consciousness unite, its like a spiritual nuclear reaction happens. Self compassion and unity with everything happens and you become bigger, than yourself. Fear to me is just a ladder which leads you straight to the source .
\nSuddenly my voice isn’t me or my anymore or my dancing or my teaching, because it is now WE singing, WE dancing, WE teaching.
\nTherefore i would like to tell you; Hold your fear dear to your heart<\/strong>. It serves you, without doubt. Your fear and your limitations show you exactly where to go, in a universe, which is full of choices.<\/strong> And they contain unbelievable energy, once you meet them with self-compassion<\/strong> .
\nConnect to it by remembering to be self-compassionate with all your negative emotions.
\nLets Share your fruits of self-reflection.
\nFocus on what people really need in their hearts, without even knowing and less on what they want and you too, will find your niche, if you haven’t yet.<\/p>\n
\nBy seeing what people actually need, some without even knowing, i found my way of connecting .My experience now is:What i have to offer is something, that many people need, without even knowing.
\n-It is the fear of the fear, that blocks us and not the fear itself.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":869,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":true,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[41,1,13,9,62,63,19,40,8,21,14,16,22,15],"tags":[28,71,73,72],"class_list":["post-833","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-abilities","category-allgemein","category-believes","category-bewusstsein","category-god","category-gott","category-liberation","category-purpose","category-schattenarbeit","category-selbsterkenntnis","category-self-knowledge","category-shadow-work","category-surrender","category-transformation","tag-awakening","tag-fear","tag-kavana","tag-transformation"],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/jion-blonstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/12993439_908223489300864_3720455437710115015_n.jpg?fit=500%2C500","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p7DEQd-dr","jetpack-related-posts":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/jion-blonstein.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/833","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/jion-blonstein.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/jion-blonstein.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/jion-blonstein.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/jion-blonstein.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=833"}],"version-history":[{"count":50,"href":"http:\/\/jion-blonstein.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/833\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":885,"href":"http:\/\/jion-blonstein.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/833\/revisions\/885"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/jion-blonstein.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/869"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/jion-blonstein.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=833"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/jion-blonstein.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=833"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/jion-blonstein.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=833"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
