How To Recognize And End

The Pain Body

Masquerading As Self

Excerpted From Eckart Tolle’s Talk

“The Great Mystery”

The Pain Body by Eckhart Tolle
This accumulated pain is a negative energy field that occupies your body and mind. If you look on it as an invisible entity in its own right, you are getting qute close to the truth. It’s the emotional pain body. It has two modes of being: dormant and active….

….The pain body wants to survive, just like every other entity in existance, and it can only survive if it gets you to unconsciously identify with it. It can then rise up, take you over, “become you,” and live through you. It needs to get its “food” through you. It will feed on any experience that resonates with its own kind of energy, anything that creates further pain in whatever form: anger, destructiveness, hatred, grief, emotional drama, violence, and even illness.

So the pain body, when it has taken you over, will create a situation in your life that refects back its own energy frequency for it to feed on. Pain can only feed on pain. Pain cannot feed on joy. It finds it quite indigestible.

Once the pain body has taken you over, you want more pain. You become a victim or a perpetrator. You want to inflict pain, or you want to suffer pain, or both. There isen’t really much difference between the two. You are not conscious of this, of course, and will vehemently claim that you do not want pain. But look closely and you will that your thinking and behavior are designed to keep the pain going, for yourself and others.

If you were truly conscious of it, the pattern would disolve, for to want more pain os insanity, and nobody is conscioulsy insane.

i never fully understood e.tolle other than on a more intellectual level. i think the way mooji explains things is much clearer and more direct. please watch mooji videos on youtube. you will need to watch several before you get to grasp what he is saying. and most important of all even just listening to him take you through self enquiry you the rediscover the true self. e.tolle doesn't really capture the significance of this experience which is "the essential to all these spiritual teachings. " without this direct experience you cannot fully understand what they are saying.

seperate from all thought and emotion. When you are, you understand true stillness and consciousness can never been touched by any emotion or any thought. if you hear you thoughts how can you be them. You are the thing that is thinking of it, the thing that hears and see's all. all is unstable, allow it to be 😃

So true, it's best to feel the pain and it will subside quickly. No need to carry it with us. No need to make it part of our personality. Thank you for uploading.
