Some time ago I wrote about a "new bird therapy" ( New Bird Therapy -Dummies Wanted ). I wanted to precise that I do not say that bird watching is not an effective therapy. I wanted to say only about not correct persons that like to look for dummies.
Here I want to tell you some my thoughts about 2 different "therapies". "Watching" and "Contemplating".
"Watching" means observing, emotional partecipation, involving. It means the division between like and not like.
Example. You go in a boat for whale watching and "partecipate" on the hunt: killer whales kill the calf of the whale you come to watch. Surely it will be a tragedy for you, great suffering. Because you like the big whale and her calf.
Other example. You watch pigeons. You think, they are so as all the fables told you from your birth. But it's not so. If you begin to watch these birds, you will find a very cruel life, behaviour of these "pacific" beings. If you watch them you canot "fly" happy in the sky. You are emotionally involved and you suffer (mostly) for what you see.
So, "watching" results not a therapy but an other suffering because creating "disturbing" emotions.
"Contemplating" is a sort of healing when you have to calm your mind and follow something that has no sense, meaning, with the aim not to create "disturbing" emotions. Repeat mantras, listen to the neutral sounds, dancing when you are completely concentrated on your movements, on the rhythm, on the neutral sound, view, light etc. If you do it regularely, you create a habit that will really heal you.
Examples of these sounds you can find in some of my previous posts like these

I think it is good to contemplate. Watching without contemplate does not come up with anything.
ReplyDeleteSometimes the head do not want to contemplate. My head does it relatively often...
