Byron Katie - Cancer meets inquiry

[strangerthings]

Whew!

[Sena]

St, I am not sure about the title. Should we be thinking about cancer? I would rather not.

I'll listen to it, I like Byron, but I found it interesting that you brought that up @Sena!

I had breast cancer in 2004, jumped through all the hoops, and all is well. While it was pre-Seth for me, I somehow realized I'd brought it on myself and how I'd done it. I never really felt my life was threatened, saw it as a wakeup call, but I did what modern medicine told me was necessary at the time, to appease my immediate family.

For years after that, friends would ask--no, insist--that I become active in breast cancer walks and fundraisers. I said no thank you, I've given more than enough of myself by personally going thru the process and did not want to give cancer any more of my thought or energy.

They could NOT understand where I was coming from.

Exactly

Thats pretty much the point made in the video.

Byron has a strong rapport with the lady as well.

Yes God is mentioned but as you see the lady is very into God and that has to be taken into account as someone in Byron's position.

The lady is just beginning her journey into conscious inquiry of the body and mind and spirit.

For me yes and others too. I also wore the clothes of cancer as well.

If its not for you no biggie. She has tons of other videos. Many people think her work is only about inquiry into your thoughts about others. But it is not. It is also inquiry toward your body or events as well.

I totally understand your post though and thank you for it.

Self inquiry is very powerful and this is one way to inquire. This video is only a four minute (ish) listening on what she says about our suffering thinking.

It reminds me of when Seth says when paying attention to our thoughts to say:

"Oh there goes a stormy one"
"Oh there goes a pleasing one"

So we let the flow in and arent attached to our thoughts.

Btw, it is in English and French lol

Deb, we are all living in materialistic societies in which physical reality is regarded as all-powerful and consciousness is devalued.
