Shannon's Journal Discussion Volume 3

[Have at ye]

That seems like an odd reaction. Maybe the fear would have been led to by the emotions being blocked?

Over time, that should stop happening, if it happens again.

4. Not everything is fear related and cannot be resolved (directly) through fear removal, because:
a) The patterns which were created through fear in the past seem to remain after fear removal. They will be dissolved with new experiences when fear doesn't prevent new experiences but at the begin they can stand in the way. For example today in the morning while I didn't feel anything I figured out that I wouldn't approach a woman, because I could do something wrong and embarass myself. I didn't feel it, but my mind told my that it is important to no embarass myself as it is important to be flawless. And while I know that the reasons behind are fear related the pattern itself became strong enough during the years to exist by itself.

b) That is something I realized while listening to USLM2. At the middle of the first loop I started to feel similar like I felt when I was stonewalling DMSI, but it was still a bit different. I was thinking all the time "You must be kidding me". First I didn't know where it comes from but then I realized that's about the script of the sub. It is like the reality presented by the script is in some cases so far from the reality of the user that the script is being ignored. That's also not fear related. I mean, just imagine a situation. Imagine you are walking down the street and a guy comes around and tells you "Dude, just spread your arms and fly". I mean, you would think this guy is either total crazy or totally wasted because based on your reality you know that you can't fly this way. Therefore you would simply ignore him and maybe even become angry when he insists that you can do it. And I think this is what in some cases happens, because the reality from the user is too far from the reality presented by the script. This of course doesn't mean that people cannot stonewall scripts out of fear.

I think I had another one or two, but don't remember them now. If I do later I will post it.

Interesting, especially 4a

That 4a) pattern is fear-based and most probably fear-fed. You remove the fear, you should be able to replace it with a different pattern, should you so choose. Nothing exists by itself.
