BellaOnline Forums Religion and Spirituality Philosophy Surrender Or Resistance

Hi there,

I just posted my latest article about how the mind can create problems for our selves by resisting what is happening, or what we are thinking.

Surrender Or Resistance

Would love to hear your thoughts.

Tracy

Good article Tracy!

10 days of meditation. Hmm? Is there moving meditation? Or are you sitting still the entire day?

I'd love to know more about this...

Thank you

Yes, there is time to move around. We are in silence the whole time - except if you need help you can talk to a teacher at designated times. The venue is in beautiful countryside and we do get a lot of time to walk in nature while in meditation/ awareness. Vipassana Courses are run all over the world on a donation basis's. Would recommend it to everyone. I've been on 4 ten day courses. Once you've completed the initial ten days you can then go on three day courses. I've completed several three day courses and a specialised Sattipatana Course for 9 days. Each time I go it is different - depending on where my mind is at the time.

Acceptance and surrender was the way I chose to go through the grieving process of losing someone I dearly loved. I embraced the pain and rode the wave. It was my only path to healing.

Bless you. Thank you for sharing this. I know acceptance is the last thing we want to do when we lose someone dear to us, although it is our salvation and a conscious way out of the pain. Resistance to anything seems to create more problems for us.
