I wrote out the answer to this question for another member in another post, I’m not gonna tag them because I don’t want them to feel put on the spot, but I’m also not taking shots at them, it’s a great question and it’s one that I’ve asked myself, several times. After writing, I felt like it was a good topic of general discussion, so I’m posting it here instead.
I’ve seen questions like this come up time and time again, and when I first started at SubClub, I also asked this question. The question itself is based on a vein of cultural programming that is pervasive enough that many of us have been led to the same incorrect (IMO) assumption about healing, what it means to heal, how healing works, etc.
The misunderstanding is the following, seemingly innocent assumption: If I heal all my traumas and limitations first, then I will be able to do anything I want to do.
This is what I call the “monk mode” fallacy. No I’m not taking shots at EB, there is great utility in moke mode for short periods of time and with a definate purpose. I’m taking shots at the idea that it’s even possible to “fully heal” prior to doing the damn thing. Hint, I don’t think it’s possible.
(The final paragraph explains what full healing looks like, it’s the only answer that appears to be reasonable, and it’s not the answer you expected. If you want that answer only, then you’ll find it at the bottom of the post)
Question
Can I run “healing title-x” and if I run it long enough, will it remove all my problems, making further healing unneccesarry.
Maybe, but also maybe not, the true answer is a little more complex.
From the perspective of the subconcious, there really isn’t a such thing as a trauma/limitation/or emotional block. Something becomes a trauma/limitation/or emotional block when you enter into the world, start living in it, make up your mind to do something, and a subconcious structure holds you back from doing what you want to do, or causes you to behave in a way that you don’t want to behave.
For example, let’s take one of the most common limitations around: fear of sucess, fear of wealth, fear of achievement.
From the point of view of your subconcious, this is simply what it is. Experiences happened in your life, that caused you to form subconcious structures that associated wealth and sucess with danger.
For many people living in the U.S., we were raised to believe that money was evil, and that the rich go to hell. So the subconcious literally believes that if you make money, you will go to hell, therefore, it’s going to protect you from making money.
This isn’t just in the west though. All over the world, there is a belief that poverty is somehow noble.
This becomes a limit and a trauma when you go out into the world, start trying to make a name for yourself, and find yourself c-blocked at every avenue. Why can’t I make money? Now that you’re aware of it, you start digging, interpret the structure as a limitation or blockage, and now you want to remove it. However, before that realization, this wasn’t a “trauma” or “blockage” it was simply the subconcious mind trying to protect you.
So, can it make all other healing unnecessary? The answer is yes and no.
Yes, because it will work to help you overcome everything that’s blocking you currently. Everything that you are either aware of, or dimly aware of, it’s going to help you overcome. If you are running it in a stack, it’s going to try and help you overcome what is currently blocking the expression of your stack.
No, because there are still MANY MANY MANY more subconcious structures that exist deep within you that are not currenlty traumas, limitations, or blockages. They aren’t trauma’s YET because nothing that you are doing is activating them or causing them to become an issue or neusance in your life.
For instance, you might have a fear of heights. Nothing wrong with that. If in 6 months you decide that you want to become a sky-diver, then suddenly that natural and protective fear of heights is a trauma that you’ll want to overcome, make sense?
So! As you grow and change on this journey, things that are CURRENTLY serving you well, might become “traumas” “blockages” and “limitations” later down the line, and they may require more healing to remove them later.
In short, no, you can’t just heal it all and move on. Because trauma, limitation, and blockages are all context dependant and can change over the course of your journey.
Does that mean “Don’t Heal”?
No, what it means is that healing is a use case to remove something that’s blocking you. So yes heal! Use healing! Just get rid of the silly fantasy that you can somehow “heal everything” and become some perfected being before you actually start living your life, it just doesn’t work that way, guys, it just doesn’t work that way. It’s an illusion that’s holding you back from attaining your goals.
The Promised YES-CASE for Full Healing
The ulimate answer, that you weren’t asking for, but I will give anyway. Is that in order to remove every single trauma, limit, and blockage you would need to reach a state of true and pure spiritual enlightenment.
You would need to become a Buddah, essentially.
However if you were to become fully enlightened, chances are that you would no longer give a damn about anything at all, anyway and that’s the great irony of true and pure enlightenment, is that once a person reaches that state, they’ve reached a space of pure potentiality where (according to legend) they can do anything, essentially, for they have removed all limitations, however, the very lack of limitation means that they actually do very little, even though they could do it, because they no longer have any attachment to doing anything at all.
The irony, is that you gain “ultimate power” but the very state of obtaining that ultimate power, means that you don’t use it. This is known as the great joke of enlightenment, it’s a joke because you got everything you wanted, you attained buddahood, you gained ultimate power, and it’s all meaningless to you. Because in order to wield that power, you would need to come back down into the world, to form attachments, and therefore give up your enlightenment.
@moderators Keep me honest, guys.
