DAY THIRTEEN-01
Hi again,
I trust that you learnt a thing or two from the “behind the
scenes” Day. It was necessary to give you a true perceptive of
where we have come from, why we are here and where we are
heading with this enlightenment journey. The conclusion is
obvious we must change and learn to feel again. Thus, this
process must have some practical lessons to it and so there is.
In the next days I would like to teach you about the
“mechanics” of increasing feeling in your life. I am not talking
about stirring up our emotions, you can do that by just watching
a movie, listening to a song or playing a game. What I am talking
about is developing positive habits that will increase feeling in
your being and eventually transform you into an “Angel”.
These habits are not religious, social or mental exercises
which only work on your emotions and does not build feeling. I
have said a lot about emotion and feeling that is best that I first
explain difference between the two.

DAY THIRTEEN-02
About the best explanation of emotion and feeling that I
have come across is this;
Feelings are senses detecting what you feel through your
10 primary inputs; (Here they are again; sight, smell, hearing,
taste, touch, temperature, pain, balance, vibration and various
other internal stimuli). Emotion on the other hand are what those
feelings mean. The basic human emotions are, anger, fear
sadness and happiness.
I like to understand the difference in this way;
Emotion is like the sea and you are the ship in the sea. The
sea is never stable and is forever rocking the ship and infact tries
at times to sink the ship Feeling is like when you get back to
dry land and put your feet back on the ground. The ground is
stable and you can trust it.
It is that simple but how does this apply to the two part
make up of our being?

DAY THIRTEEN-03
Emotion is part of the adamic makeup but it is not part of
our angelic makeup. Feeling on the other hand is part of our
angelic makeup. Emotions connect the mind to the “adamic you”
and feeling connect the soul to the “angelic you”.
Emotion is a necessary and good thing to have but a cruel
Master. Feeling is more than a necessity, it is the essence of life
and a good King. Emotion is behind the drive for sex, drugs,
money, power, fame, security etc. Emotion is linked to ego.
Feeling is what is behind charity, unconditional love, acts of
goodness, kindness, etc. Feeling is linked to selflessness.
However, never underestimate the power of your emotions
because that is where most of the errors come into our life. Just
about every bad decision and situation I have made in my life
was because emotion steered me in the wrong direction. With
emotion it is always a “hit and miss” situation – you never know.
It was feeling that always saved me. I will repeat my favourite line
‘trust your feeling’.

DAY THIRTEEN-04
Is feeling an emotion? Yes and no. Yes - feeling is linked to
emotion, but No - it is not emotion. This is the difference. You
can feel and not be emotional but you can be emotional and not
feel. For instance, lying under a tree relaxing, this is feeling but
playing Street Fighter on X-Box or Play Station is purely emotion.
Which of these two persons after two hours of indulgent, do
you think is going to have the better day? The guy with the play
station (A) or the guy lying under the tree (B). Of course it is “B”.
What made the difference between A and B? I would say; the way
in which they connected to the world made all the difference. “A”
connected to the world through emotion and “B” through
feeling. Notice the word “connection”.
The key then to increasing or enhancing feeling is the
CONNECTION. I want to explain about these connections, none
which will cost you any money or any precious resources. All you
need is time and that is something we all have. If you think that
you don’t have time, then please “take” time.

DAY THIRTEEN-05
NATURE
The first connection is Nature. The majority of us live in an
artificial world and that world is increasingly becoming “plastic”.
It is made of concrete, metal, glass, synthetic and biochemical
products. For example the concrete walls and floors, metal
shelves and draws, plastic chairs and tables, polyester clothes and
shoes, chemical paints and dyes etc. that is now universal in every
household.
All of which create the artificial world we live in that is far
removed from nature. While it looks good it actually works on
the emotions in us. Why? A natural environment is not supposed
to be predominately circles, squares, rectangles, and triangles,
the most common geometric shapes man uses to create his
artificial jungle. Look around you and you will see what I mean.
Shapes affect us more than you know.
Nature has no dominate shapes. You cannot put nature into
a particular mode. It comes all shapes and sizes.

DAY THIRTEEN-06
There is a good reason why it was created this way. You see
every day my feeling connection loses its connectivity through
this artificial world I live in, so you need to let nature’s infinite
shapes “brush away” the build-up of “contaminates” on your
connection. I did not realise how important the variety of shapes
was to “cleaning” my feeling connection.
Next time you are in nature - a garden or park or forest,
keenly observe the shapes. Find a place to sit down and spend
an hour and look at the hundreds of varieties of leaf shapes and
flowers and rock formations and notice how that triggers certain
feelings in your being. It is actually a cleansing and healing
experience and it never changes no matter how many times you
view the same scene. It affects you mentally and spiritually.
A simple walk through a park will not achieve this for you. It
is not the walk that does the job but the experience of being in
nature that is vital and important. An experience we often loose
out because we rush it or we time it.

DAY THIRTEEN-07
The ideal lifestyle is to live in a place where that experience
is at your doorstep and if it is not possible bring the experience
into your home by going green. Load up your house and your
bed room with plants and other nature things.
Thankfully where I live it is out my door and outside my
window. My house also has many pot plants but I must confess
that my bed room is air-conditioned as well as my office so that
does not help the connection but when you live in the tropics
some things are just necessary.
Some of the other experiences you can add into your nature
routine is touching, flowers, leaves and trees. Theirs is an energy
that omits from every living thing, it is called “Chi”. A Chinese
word meaning life force. Feel the life force that is in the thing that
you are adoring. It definitely does something to you.
Now I am not saying to become a “tree hugger” but become
a nature lover. Next time I will teach you about the essence of
colour and water in nature.
