Pity Party

Siddhananda: Okay, so, on to the next one, (pausing with closed eyes) So, this one is saying they're like a piece of caramel candy! (smiling)

G: A caramel candy? (laughing) Okay

Siddhananda: Yeah, I always like these. I think they're kind of cute, but, anyway. Maybe, this isn't so good because they are showing how that sticks to your teeth and [is] hard to chew.

G: Yeah, okay.

Siddhananda: (pause) So, they feel a little gummed up like that.

G: Okay

Siddhananda: Let's see why? (pause) I guess, a little stuck

G: So, what's holding them back?

Siddhananda: Right.

G: Where are they stuck?

Siddhananda: Yeah, where are they stuck?, (pause) maybe, just again, [they're stuck] feeling like they're not good enough

G: Why would they have that feeling? Why would they think they're not good enough?

Siddhananda: Because they never did anything right

G: Aha.

Siddhananda: I know you're not going to buy into this Guruji (laughing)

G: NO, i'm not buying into it for an instant!

Siddhananda: They never did anything right, they always messed things up, they were the ones that messed it up, and all of that kind of thing.

G: Yeah, the pity party.

Siddhananda: Yeah

G: Are they enjoying that bandwagon, that pity party?

Siddhananda: NO, it's hell, it's horrible.. is what they're saying. They hate it.

G: Yeah, then they need to let go of that. (pause) That pity party is not serving them well at all.

Siddhananda: Yeah.

G: (pause) Self-Flagellation is not serving them at all (laughing)

Siddhananda: (laughing) Okay, i am seeing a little bit of white energy rising from this caramel type of energy

G: (laughing)

Siddhananda: (laughing)

G: Yeah, if he looks within, and the message again today [is] that [the] perfection is there, but he has to let go of his idea of imperfection.

Siddhananda: Right

G: He has to let go of that, so that the other can come forward.

Siddhananda: Right. There was some light there when you said that, that's what's keeping it bound is his idea.

G: Exactly.

Siddhananda: And I see a light bulb [lighting up]

G: And he keeps feeding that idea and keeps giving it life and pushing the other away.

Siddhananda: Right.

G: Why would you want to push that away?

Siddhananda: Right, and this light bulb is saying, it's not happening now, it's just an idea. That's not happening now, that's not happening now.. i'm hearing.

G: Right, that doesn't need to happen anymore.

Siddhananda: Yeah

G: (pause) He can do it, he can. He just needs to stop telling himself that he can't.

Siddhananda: (pause) Yeah, that's resonating.. he had that light bulb and he had some insight into that, so, that's really great.

G: Okay.

Siddhananda: So, what should we do with him?

G: So, is there anything else he would like to ask before he [leaves]

Siddhananda: He would, [yes]. He's not going to turn down some mantras or whatever you like to give him (laughing)

G: (laughing) Since he asked, he can have them.

Siddhananda: Okay, so, should it be like the two practices?

G: We don't push them on anybody, you have to ask. If you want them, you have to ask.

Siddhananda: Sure

G: That's a lesson for him, too. If you ask, the door is open.

Siddhananda: That's true, that's true. Instead of just sitting there wallowing in your stuff.

G: Yeah

Siddhananda: So, the COS maybe? and the two practice "I Am That I Am" and "Om That I Am", is that Okay?

G: Yes

Siddhananda: Okay (hand on heart). (pause) Okay, that's good

G: Perfect
