Behind Closed Doors

N said it had been a very challenging time; not being able to get up and do his usual process, being effectively under house arrest for a considerable period of time. Not being able to go to work, being able to go out only for very limited things such as shopping and a little bit of exercise had been an interruption to normal habitual patterns. The last two or three weeks of the lock-down had been particularly fraught and extremely worrying with this disease; one client had had it very badly, and a cousin had been in and out of hospital with it. On the other hand he thought it was a good thing for the world to be interrupted in this way; to be forced back now to go deeper into ourselves and think about the implications and the world we lived in. He was thinking to himself that this could be the most creative phase if it was utilised in the right way for everyone. For himself, he was thinking whether he needed to lead the lifestyle that he lead to find the things that he valued in life, and maybe he could rearrange his life very differently. He thought there were enormous pluses out of this scenario when he started to look at it.

If you experience in the day something that you react to as a bad thing, switch your thinking to it being a good thing, and feel your feet on the ground.
T had had to remotely connect with her work which was very strange because it was all based on the time, place, person of the therapy room, and being with people and present with people who came in for this particular therapy, so the rug had been taken out from under her feet and the therapy. What was left felt disembodied and disconnected on the telephone, but the good thing was that despite all the problems of connecting, they did connect. The connecting was to a different kind of schedule but the schedule felt like a friend at the moment in an otherwise unscheduled time. For her it was holding on to the container of the schedule rather than the container of her workplace. When she had remembered the challenge and felt the feet on the ground, it felt less potent than the previous challenge of making a fist.

L said it had been very bad that we had been forced to stop using the Community Centre for the time being, but it was good because it had enabled us to use this alternative, which could potentially bring in people from further afield.

During the period allocated to responses, there was much discussion, but nothing was said about specific experiences of doing the CHALLENGE during the previous month.

The reading then continued from Chapter 29 of Beelzebub's Tales.

The circumstances were these: in descending to the planet Earth for the sixth and last time, I proposed to attain, at any cost, the final elucidation to myself of all the genuine causes why the psyche of those three-brained beings, which should be like the psyche of the rest of the three-brained beings of our Great Universe, had on that planet become so exceptionally strange.

LR said she thought the reference to coming to this planet for the sixth and last time was curious - she did not know what it meant but it seemed to hold some significance. She wondered if this final visit was to remedy the issue within the psyche of the three-brained beings. L thought the number six might be of significance in terms of musical metaphor, as the sixth note is almost the end of the octave - in fact the next two notes are virtually off the scale, because the seventh is a leading note which goes straight to the octave which is where you start again.

... the Nature of the planet Earth was beginning to adapt Herself to the deteriorating quality of the vibrations She demanded that had to be formed from their radiations, by substituting those vibrations which are now obtained only from the process of their sacred Rascooarno, or as they say ‘from-their-death.

L was curious abut the nature of the vibrations which were "now obtained only from the process of their sacred Rascooarno", which meant death.
