Unfeeling

[Questioner]

I cannot admire. This is a feeling.

Very well, you can certainly observe, appreciate, notice, comment upon and consider the value of those who have human qualities you perceive as being manifested more in their life than in yours. You can also share your perceptions and interpretations about these advantages with those people, and with others. All this can honor the diverse ways the Creator's portions can assist one another while living on the 3D Earth.

I crushed a vertebrae and had to learn to breath upright and walk again. Therefore there is no work of the physical nature that I am eligible for, even though I made a 100% and full recovery in that the doctors couldn't tell my vertebrae had been crushed a mere six months after the accident.

I'm truly sorry to learn of this challenging circumstance in your life. I wish for you all the finest of healing at all levels, and of work and contribution and balancing opportunities, that can possibly come your way.

I went through a very traumatic physical accident myself. Fortunately, I didn't have to relearn as much as you or face as much post-accident repercussion as you. But I can share an opinion with more personal understanding than many people could offer. And my opinion is that the shutoff of feeling perception may be, or may have been, a physiological necessity to prevent overloading your nervous system. Without that, the full awareness of pain, and all its emotional implications, could have been utterly debilitating to further conscious awareness in this lifetime.

It might be a blessing that the absence of joyous highs also saves you from the presence of crushing injury sense to its full extent. In my own case, at some point just before my head hit the rocks at great speed, my memory goes blank, and it doesn't return until some time later. I hope and actually pray that in this lifetime, I never will remember or consciously experience the real feelings of those missing moments.

The ability to have less than full association with physical aspects of feeling could, perhaps, have been a wise, metaphysical, time/space choice each of us made. These choice might have been the best way to prepare us for the accidents that were unavoidable for the evolutionary path and pace we each aspired to experience in this incarnation.

The disaster recovery comment, by the way, was meant to give an example of observation and speech. I had in mind a safety inspector's intellectual service, not of physical rescue service such as a fireman would provide. I apologize if that was unclear.

Too many of the music industry are of the service to self type for my personal taste, but if you know of anyone looking to hire Mr. Logical, then I am your man lol!

Given the number of "behind the music" stories of people who felt safe with managers who ran off with the money, maybe you'd be a real blessing in that field!

Also given the topic - what exactly happens for you with laughing out loud?

In meditation, when I get to the gap in thought, it is a blank for me. I go into the state, and then come out of it. There is absolutely nothing in between. I am gone elsewhere, but I know not where. Prayer... I only ask for others. I have all I require, logically, and as thus, ask for naught for myself.

That's interesting. Do you have any recall of dreams?

I just wish I could feel compassion for others suffering.... (rafting story)

In what way could you have been of more service if you'd had a feeling element of compassion, perhaps distracting you from the pragmatic shock treatment and calmly wry assessment that helped others feel safe?

Even when my small daughter cries, I feel no compassion, but do immediately comfort her so that she feels better. Happiness is my goal for her, so I simply act in such fashion as to provide that for her.

I believe she'll know that she is loved, and that this world is a place where caring help is available to her. What a wonderful foundation of security she gets to experience! How much more helpful sensitivity to her needs than many parents who might have more vivid mood swings!

If I understand it correctly, one must have the lower three chakras open in order to have full function of the upper chakras?

Yes, this is the way I understand the Law of One material. The energy inflow which comes up the body becomes unusable if it encounters a blocked chakra. Therefore opening the chakras in sequence from red on up enables the physical portion of the self to integrate this energy for mind and spirit to use. So if the graph is accurate, then orange chakra openness would indeed be the next focus of your evolution.
