La 3ème loi : Faire face à tout et ne rien éviter

so so then the facing everything and avoiding nothing is really it's the practice of awareness so what facing everything to avoid nothing means is because you want which is the first 10 because you want to evolve because you want to become an enlightened person because you want to evolve morally ethically philosophically spiritual because you want to become an enlightened person you want to evolve beyond ego that is your intention it is your passion you're very clear about it you've come to an absolute decision right everything depends upon the first tenant of the teaching remember I always say that everything depends upon the first time because of the intention that you've come to because the intention that you've cultivated you begin to pay attention to your own experience and that and the context of paying attention is is the desire to evolve beyond ego the desire to evolve morally ethically philosophically and spiritually so that's the context in which you're paying attention to your own experience so you're watching what is happening internally within relationship to your own mind in your own emotions simultaneously you're watching what's happening as you respond to external stimuli to other people to life you're constantly paying attention to your internal responses to the choices that are being made consciously and unconsciously you're constantly paying attention to what's happening you're constantly paying attention to the way you respond to life to other people unexpected circumstances to pleasure you know pain joy and fear you're always what you're always paying attention seeing what's happening so you're always monitoring what's happening and the reason you're doing is because you're actually interested and this is the key do yeah okay so this is why the facing everything and avoiding nothing you will only be able to be practiced by an individual who's really a very gun very deeply into the first tenant of the teaching the cultivation of the intention to evolve beyond the ego to evolve morally ethically philosophically and spiritually has to be cultivated very very perfect in a very profound way because when it is you start exercising the muscle of volition allottee and when you begin to exercise the muscle muscle of volition errant volition air pollution ality based upon the dipper fact having cultivated the profound intention to be free then you can begin to use your own gift of awareness for your own salvation for your own evolution beyond the ego for your own higher moral development see my point otherwise it ain't going to work in other words you'll get the theory and because you're intellectually very sophisticated you'll get the theories it's a good theory but it won't work for you the point is if the locus of your attention if the goal of your attention is is evolution beyond ego see that that opens everything up there because you're not trying to defend anything so you're automatically in undefended in your orient your orientation to your experience and to awareness itself is undefended at the same time it was a very specific goal that you have your attention on see and also because its developmental because it's an evolutionary context your goal is always on what's going to what's possible now and what's possible now and what's this because always there's always more possible so you say this is this is kind of hopefully ever-increasing dimension of flexibility to the reach of your own attention in relationship to what you're trying to accomplish so it's not like trying to defend you know where you know what's already happened you know rigid you know people are they're fixed rigid closed it's not if you're if you're really evolutionarily enlightened then it then there's a certain natural flexibility to your to your relationship to awareness to the way your awareness is kind of embracing your own inner and outer experience because you're always reaching because it's a developmental context in my point so there's inherent flexibility there which is very different than the way most of us operate which is rue this rigidity you see in way that we think there's a rigid rigidity way it is a bit natural right there's a very condition rigidity in terms of the way our attention works okay so also when you say facing everything and avoiding nothing if you're facing everything avoiding nothing you are going to start noticing things on the both extremes of the spec spectrum of possibility so on one extreme you certain potentials are going to start to emerge in your awareness that you that you never imagined were possible i'm talking about the possibility of actually succeeding well the possibility of actually succeeding you're going to have glimpses of a kind of of a kind of glory in a kind of goodness and a kind of positivity that you never imagined in your life was actually possible but it's it'll suddenly dawn on you that it really is possible right you're going to start glimpsing kind of potentials for yourself for other people for Humanity as a whole for life itself for consciousness consciousness itself that was way out see it outside and beyond the field of your own awareness before it just wasn't in the realm of possibility never entered my mind ever heard that song too beautiful song never entered my mind so it never entered your mind because because you were so lot your tenure the spectrum of your of the of the possibilities that you were actually considering we're so narrow we're certain for most people it's just awful that the spectrum of a potential of what we're actually seriously considering is so narrow that of course we don't develop and evolve in any kind of spectacular extraordinary insignificant way who's me because it's it was something that we're never even considering really okay so when you begin to fix everything and avoid nothing when you drop your ego defenses and you're really paying attention on both sides of the spectrum potentials that you never considered before right because you weren't leaving any room for them begin to emerge and on one side the potentials and the possibilities that you know suddenly begin to emerge how to know our unthinkably unimaginably positive wholesome glorious magnificent you know unbelievably inspiring glorious alright the other end of the spectrum is is a realm of darkness so then you all because you're facing everything Boyd nothing you're also not avoiding you know the the lower structures the lower level structures you know in the human psyche that exists in all of us and a lot of it is not very pleasant a lot of it's very frightening shocking horrible humiliating embarrassing all these things they're all that all these lower structures exist within us right just because part of our part of the self is evolved other a lot of our there are there's a lot of primitive stuff in all of us that isn't very pretty but the point is because you're going to be facing everything that's facing everything and avoiding nothing because you're facing everything avoiding nothing these extremes the extreme heist extremes love the extreme lows the stream positive the extreme negative it's all good it's all going to become think it will begin to enter into the field of your awareness because you're stopping to censor your own internal experience you're going to begin to you begin to you because you're just interested and you're because you no longer have a fixed notion of self because you want to be an enlightened person an enlightened person knows they want to evolve beyond ego they want to evolve morally ethically philosophical and spiritually but they don't have a fixed sense of who they are you're not a static int you're no longer a static entity you don't see yourself as a static entity you or your work in progress so so because of that you're no longer so afraid there's a you know of a lot of this unpleasant stuff it doesn't mean you like it and a lot of it may be really hard to deal with it some of it may be very terrifying and also there are a lot of irrational fears that we all experience that can tend to you know give us a feeling of being very off-balance but you you bear it so the individual who practices facing everything in avoiding nothing is an individual who gets to know themselves very very well the individual who authentically begins to practice and facing everything and avoiding nothing gets to know themselves very very well nobody can know themselves perfectly and there's always going to be parts of ourselves that we don't know very well there's always going to be areas are self that we're just incapable of seeing objectively that's just the way it is I don't care who I don't care who it is I don't care who we're talking about but you know but with that being said at least to a large degree to a significant degree to important degree you're going to start to get you to know yourself pretty well and once again it's not going to be perfect and there's going to be holes blind spots but if you're very serious about this the blind spots are not going to be important ones you
