Re: Confused about a statement .... Need help in understanding it.
why not just rename "deafness" then? Call it simply "not hearing". I'm not one to believe that any words are -in themselves- gospel. ***if you call it loss, I think you are being pointed in the direction of that inner sense "it isn't fair" that you mentioned awhile back. Maybe there's a lot of sadness stored in that belief.
So, if I am not hearing, then, is it possible (I ask myself these questions)
that I do not want to hear? I answer:well, I suppose it might be. If it *is* possible, then what do I not want to hear? without even thinking then
of anyone's not hearing, or worrying about when not hearing manifested
in this plane, and without censoring myself, i might try to penetrate
to what I might not want to hear.
truth? I would answer "no". I love to hear truth. I want to know truth.
If this were me, my first thought might be "lies". I do not want to hear lies,
or mindless nonsense. Misguidance. Ah! But even lies might be *okay*, if I then see them from a position of lies being less strong than truth--and truth being 'of the light'. You get the idea. The darkness (or shadows) cannot hide when there is no fear of what is hidden. I think it's important to remember when working on the self to go easy, and to "lighten up", as Abraham often says.(Lightening up to where the greater Self surrounds and permeates one, and there's no reason for anything to remain hidden from view.)
What I keep hearing from you, Ynaig, though not always in these exact words, but many versions of them, is:
"I want to do it myself".
I can relate as I think I came in with much of that same 'feeling'. There would be an elegance then, wouldn't there, in having to rely only on *your own inner voice* -- and how that would manifest (vibrational match) in the physical, in terms of (not)physically hearing.
Maybe *not hearing* is not any problem at all -and as you said, is a gift; that you called it a gift "in disguise"--well, maybe the disguise is in proportion to any judgements you hold about not hearing. If there were no self-judgement, or internalization of parental dictates, then perhaps there would not be an experience on the outer plane of meeting judgement, or being frustrated and struggling *against* not hearing.
Anyway, this moment is the only one that can be made 'new'. So really, nothing from before "matters". Just a few thoughts...if anything resonates--good.
