1983.08.21: Latwii on acceptance, treating others

[Diana]

What wonderful excerpts, thank you Peregrine.

The purification of emotions is a concept that has stumped me for a while, but it does seem related to the archetypal mind as well as something about the way experience bears fruit to the Creator. If anybody knows of any passages that explore this in more detail, let me know.

Can anybody shed light on the significance of purified emotions?

I agree that the Q'uo excerpts were good and significant to the conversation. 

Regarding purified emotions, I will give it a shot and add to what has already been said. Though I am going to dive into metaphors instead of intellectual analyses because I will be trying to describe something experiential that goes beyond words. 

I think it refers to feeling whatever emotion to its deepest level and not resisting any of it--letting the emotion spread out like melting ice seeping through the layers of ground, merging into the waters, vaporizing into the air of your being. Penetrating all the cells and their consciousnesses, the labyrinths of the mind and protected fragments of the subconscious.

To feel it in full with no restraints or distorting the experience with judgments. To be able to bear the full emotion and its intensity (which is exponentially greater than one emotion defined in 3D because so much more is included, such as all the other people involved to the consequences of its output to existence) without the need to edit or cut it short or deny any part of it. To become one with the emotion as though it is a being you accept unconditionally that has free will of its own. 

In this way the emotion is freed to be fully expressed with no conditions. It has been released from the prison of restraint and can then wash over you like a huge, rich storm that leaves everything cleansed of the 3D paradigms, old traumas, expectations, and emerges new. At this point emotion ceases to even be what we know as emotion. It is more like unconditional love, which even in its connectivity and intensity also is detached in that it allows completely for the free will and desires and paths of all others and self. But that detachment does not mean no feeling, just the opposite--it means all feeling, pure and accepted in its totality which may be seen as touching the infinite. 

It's not just about changing desires and being aware of different things, it is more like an iceberg that melts and is now part of the ocean it floated in, now able to touch and flow with all the creatures in the ocean and the water particles and molecules and consciousnesses and become one with it all, but the consciousness of the iceberg has become something else entirely, as it is not frozen in time or hardened to remain separate from the water that it was formed from.
