Master-Slave :

Hi! :)

I was just having some sort of brainstorm about how we all have master-slave relationships in our lives.

For example: At work, boss-worker. At home, husband-wife or wife-husband. At school, teacher-student....etc...

Everywhere! Even within yourself you have a master-slave relationship...We are all slaves to our thoughts...because we take our thoughts as us....

You are not your thought, you are you:) a living breathing person with choices!

We react to our thoughts like we have no other choice. Which is not the case at all.

When you have a thought that makes you angry or depressed, you need to breathe consciously and imagine that you're observing yourself from distance.

That way you realise that you have a choice and act different and more smart than just react like a prehistoric mammal...

Hehe, funny but that's the way it is...you can control your reactions quite easily...

Try it when you feel like you're not going to make it, breathe and observe yourself...

Best regards!

So true! It just really helps to step outside of yourself for a minute and take stock of what is really going down.

Great impulse! This is the power of true observation and free will. You might know or like the writings of Jiddu Krishnamurti, one of the best Masters that sets you free...

Cool, if you want to take a look at my book review list, you'll find him there: http://heartbasedpower.com/managing-stress-books-handpicked-self-help-guides

Let me know what you think, for me it was game changing!
Cheers, Stefan

Well said...and true! Not so easy to practice but practice we must...like staying in the 'now'.

He, he, just the reminder I needed ! Thank you. You are soo right. One can really choose what to think, and replace thoughts with other thoughts that serves you more. And...i have experienced that, depending on the frequence of the thought you choose to think, you can turn around a whole situation - just by doing that. That is the Law of attraction. Right ?

What you are pointing out is exactly the difference between "reacting" and "responding".

When you react to a situation, you're letting the circumstances control you, and you loose control of your thoughts and actions, and basically yourself. You willingliy hand over your free choise to the circumstances!

When someone "responds" to a situation, he does exactly what you mention. He looks at things from a distance, monitors the situation, and then *decides* what to do, based on his own free will.

Osho gave advise for control of mind. We need to look at ourselves as strangers in street. In this way, we leave emotions and use neutral observation.

Yes, so true!
