A spiritual practice like no other… Are you doing it?
What makes the ‘Stranger than Fiction‘ type of narration work like gangbusters to get you out of your head?
To my surprise not many people take advantage of the opportunity to watch a good movie and steal a habit that can be called a spiritual practice.
Steal a spiritual practice that can take you from a victim of your mind, to as near a human being as you can get in a few months’ time.
The movie, Stranger than Fiction is a really good movie.
but the best part of the movie is that the style of the voice that is speaking. The voice that the hero, Will Ferrell dude hears.
The way that voice talks is the exact type of inner speaking that you hear when you speak from the Witness’s position.
Hearing the little voice in your head from the Witness/Observer position is is heaven on earth. Lovely. You can even be entertained by it… I am.
The little voice
You see, normally, you hear the little voice speak from inside your head. It says something about everything. It says what everything means. What it might mean. About the future. What may happen, what should happen. All that crap that you hear when you head is up your ass…
And you are suffering, never quite enjoying life. Never present. Never in the flow of things.
On the other hand, in employing the ‘Stranger than Fiction’ narrator there is a dramatic change… a shift.
There the voice also talks about you, your actions, your feelings, your attitudes in the third person. Which means, it is not the ‘you’ you are used to being, it is the Observer, the Witness, the Watcher… objective, outside of the hubbub of the you you have been considering yourself to be.
The sideways view. No ‘I’ in it. Only it, he, she, they… not even ‘we’. So you can’t take it personally… so you don’t need to resist it.
Resisting or not resisting the voice
One of my students told me that when she listens to the 67 steps, she doesn’t get resistant, because Tai doesn’t talk to her directly…
This is exactly what you can do even without Tai.
This is the best way to start raising your vibration. I am serious! It puts you smack into reality… out of your head.
No activator, not energies, nothing will do it for you unless you get out of your head and into the Observer position.
Now, this is going to be an ultimatum. If you don’t like ultimatums, please leave now.
If you won’t watch this movie, if you don’t want to watch this movie, if you don’t have time to watch this movie, consider that you are not welcome on my site, and I won’t accept you to any of my courses.
You are kidding yourself and you are kidding me.
I mean, at least watch the darn movie! And then, if you actually want to raise your vibration, then start doing the narrating as a spiritual 24/7 exercise.
I’ve had enough of you wanting to get something for nothing. Wanting higher vibration for no work, or for work that is unrelated to raising your vibration.
I am talking to you. I mean it.
Ok, gotcha. Thank you very much
sorry Baheej, I think the instructions are clear… try it. third person speaking… about YOUR actions, your feelings, your thoughts.
You have to muddle through it yourself… Your question points to the type of person who would want me to chew your food for you too… is that who you want to remain? No offense meant, just feedback.
Hi Sophie, so I bought the DVD and watched it once so far. I realize that I will need to watch it, probably, several times, at least. However, I’m not quite clear on the instruction: then start doing the narrating as a spiritual 24/7 exercise. I don’t want to be narrating from the mind. I have been able to watch/observe myself in the middle of emotions and actions. Any tips on the narrating….? Thank you
