Shenpa-Revised





Shenpa is a Tibetan word for hook. It is that rising, clenching feeling I get in my gut when something has risen to my consciousness, and my mind ruminates on that thing, until the situation jerks the hook and I'm caught. My mind rolls it over in my head, and generally my mind is screaming one of these negative phrases.  1) What the hell were/are they thinking, 2) That is just so unfair. This is a major, big hook for me. 3) There is no possible way that this could be true, yet it is.  My knee jerks up, and I'm off to the races. I generally throw a fit on Facebook, which actually gets support and further fuels my angst. HALT!!!

The only REAL thing that I can do that will improve any bad situation is to work on my own negative reactions and actions. To that end I will always deal fairly with everyone. I will recognize the moment of tightening just before the hook is set, and relax into the feeling, and watch it as it passes. 

My negative reactions do more to maintain the tension, than to ease it. My angst at these situations raises the world's negative energy level. What I can most successfully do to change this moment is to relax, let it pass naturally, and then raise my energy level to a more positive vibration. This practice will raise the energy level of the whole world.

If you think that your energy does not matter, as you are only one person, you're wrong. You may be one person, but you have a sphere of other people that you interface with who will be affected by your energy, which will also raise their vibration level. This is an exponential process. One person can do a lot; unfortunately, this goes in both directions. 

One must recognize the shenpa that threatens to dissolve your peace of mind. Relax, and steady ourselves in the moment, and raise your energy vibration when the shenpa passes.

Recognize the Illusion,
Namaste
