The Story of a Hug: DAY 452
The other day, I was on the way to horses – preparing their
stables for their evening stay, when all of a sudden – I physically felt like
expressing a hug; like my physical
body was saying “I want to express a HUG, go HUG!”. It was a pure physical
expression / sensation – lol, like the body asking me to move myself in/as the
physical and express a hug. Now, the emphasis was not on the “I WANT a hug or
MUST HAVE a hug” in terms of a dependency. No, it was more like “I’m going to
express a Hug right now” / “express me in a form of a hug” – so, it was within
the starting point of a sharing, like the body really wanted to share a hug
within the principle of give and receive.
Lol, so I went to Esteni and shared a hug – really big bear
hug and for a moment the body was stable, until I passed Maya’s room and it was
there again and so I went to give Maya a hug and then the body was stable /
happy.
Now, with this – I haven’t before experienced the physical
sensation of such an expression so prominently, but it was pretty cool, how it
came through the physical – no emotion/feeling, simply a physical sharing of a
hug. It’s not something you can create through the Mind, that’s for sure, it’s
really like the entire body within and throughout becomes this expression it
wants to express unconditionally, nothing more, nothing less…simply a moment of
a hug – that’s it. And obviously, how such an express cannot exist in just ‘any
relationship’ – like ‘walking up to strangers and hugging them’, because it’s
not about the ‘hug’, but self’s expression within and as and through the hug
and that self-expression,
one in fact only discover within relationships with others that you have walked
with yourself and with them for some time.
Then, later the evening, Maya and I were walking through
some points as her, myself and Esteni often do – walk through our day, discuss
things, open points up and a point of suppression opened up in Maya and that
very point was her process of walking this very self expression in/as a hug, where
she’d sometimes feel like simply expressing a hug / giving a hug / sharing a
hug, but then the Mind interferes and she doesn’t; then the point of an self
expression becomes a suppression and the mind internalized the suppression and
made the Hug to be more than / less than
what it simply should be: a Hug.
So, all in all – it was fascinating how this point opened
up, and with me hugging the way that I did in the same day also then presented
the solution: a Hug should simply be a self expression, a physical movement of
touch/sharing: THAT’S IT. In that, it makes the connection / moment real/physical
between two individuals, because there’s then nothing more / less in the Mind
that is interfering: it is really two individuals coming together in that
moment expressing a hug – a real
connection, if you will.
So, furthermore – what opened up through this is that: to be
able to express such a hug, incorporates both an internal self-process and also
one’s relationship/process with another. It is truly fascinating how expression
through the physical opens up, without the Mind interfering, when one had
walked a process with individuals for a long
time. I mean, understand – I am now not talking about relationships, and I’m
sure many listening now may have in a moment in their minds been thinking about
relationships / connected this point to relationships: but again –
relationships would limit such an expression, such a here-moment, where there
is nothing more/less in a hug but an actual expression and you can feel that
self expression coming through in the physical when the mind is not there and
it’s truly in that moment, in such moments, where you realise why this process
of stopping the mind and discovering self
expression is so worth it.
We’ll continue more in the next interview – expanding on how
to discover self expression in relationships, where something as simple as a
hug, makes you realise what you’ve missed with messing around in the
mind/consciousness emotions/feelings.
