The breath does not just begin or support life, the breath is the totality of life. It is life, far beyond the simple movement of the lungs in the bodies of mammals. Every single movement in the cosmos is a movement of, the Cosmic Breath. In our own personal cosmos of the body and mind (including their subtle levels), nothing occurs that is not a movement of breath. Every life process is breath itself. Breath is the substance of which the inner and outer universe is constructed as well as the power within it which causes it to move and live.  Breath is All.   T he Rig Veda, has some interesting things to say about the breath. In the great Hymn of Creation (10:129:2) it says of the Absolute: “That One Thing, breathless, breathed by its own nature.” Before creation the Cosmic Breath was fully internal, becoming external at the advent of the universe. It is the same way with us. In the depths of meditation the breath becomes internal so that we, too, breathe inwardly and perc...

The Program On-Mobile a new recovery phenomena A recent study hit the headlines when it found that some social media users could develop the symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) by viewing violent or disturbing content. Should we be worried? The headlines were stark: "Online videos can cause post-traumatic stress disorder" one said, while another announced: "Social media users 'traumatised'". The controversial suggestion was that watching gruesome videos and images online at home could lead to the same types of symptoms most associated with combat veterans. The stories were triggered by a study released earlier this month by Dr Pam Ramsden, a researcher at the University of Bradford. Ramsden surveyed 189 people about their reactions to a range of events. She found that more than a fifth of respondents scored high on clinical measures of PTSD from seeing pictures on social media - even though they hadn't experienced the traumatic events f...

We the passionately recovered are the raw force of our own lives, and it threatens the still-traumatised parents and shaming groups – the norm – who are by nature spiritually dead or dying. Out of fear of being awakened such parents unconsciously traumatise us in order to mute our honesty. They humiliate us to force us to lock our truth in back alleys of the psyche, and they freeze our memory with ice to keep us from remembering......But remember we do.

We would describe the child within in these words: This child the sword cannot cut, nor the spear pierce; the fire cannot burn nor water melt it; indestructible, omnipresent is this child.

We are addicted. We are addicted to dissociation. Several months ago we started wondering if the defences we commonly use could possibly be termed addiction. We knew they were habitual. We knew they happened spontaneously, like a reflex, without time for us to stop and reflect whether or not this was the response we wanted to use; We knew that when we tried to use other responses it was exceedingly difficult and required much continual mindfulness on our part.We looked up addiction in online dictionaries: “The condition of being habitually or compulsively occupied with or involved in something.” That sounds accurate.”The state of being enslaved to a habit or practice.” Well, that certainly fits! “And the last one: “Habitual psychological and physiological dependence on a practice beyond one’s voluntary control.” That definition fit completely. We COULD NOT stop dissociating when we wanted to.We do not attach a moral judgment to the word “Addiction”. It is a simple statement of fa...

The Childhood mind is peculiarly vulnerable to trauma, especially when young – a blind-fear is induced which turns thought off. Thought ceases. The mind is ‘ill’. It pays the child within not to know what is happening, or who is doing what, to him or her. This is variously described as ‘denial’, dissociation, projection, repression .The upshot is that the child within daren’t look, so cannot see.. The child works on the perception that “full thought or visualisation of this event is TERMINAL”. And once the child within stops seeing, and this can happen quite suddenly especially pre-verbally, then they are thereafter incapable of telling whether or not the trauma has stopped. “This isn’t happening to me” leads inexorably to the inability to say or think or believe that “this has stopped happening to me” – or even very clearly what “this” is. It is a painful thing to wake up the child within — and to start to understand our need for the child's recovery. It breaks rules. It ...
