Hunger

Today, I ate breakfast cereal. Eventually, I was full and I put the rest of the cereal in the refrigerator. After a while reading relaxed there occurred a hunger feeling that made me wonder. Hadn't I just eaten enough. I remembered the muesli and felt no hunger to continue to eat it. However, I felt hungry.

Someone is clinging to me who is hungry, I thought. I consciously went into a meditative state and viewed from a hypnagogic state close at the hunger sensation. I felt a dark point in the area of my stomach and saw - when I directed my attention to it - the image of a man in front of me whom I had not seen for years. Slowly I pushed the blackness out of me. The hunger feeling disappeared on the spot.

Now I was eager to understand the meaning of the region on the solar plexus, where the blackness occurred. There is a happy and confident feeling to be able to afford things. Not that I would be rich. It is more about a feeling of no need to worry. I realized that the person who triggered the feeling of hunger was apparently in search of energy to be able to afford something.

Sorry, you'll have to do little more than wait for friends and feeding you. Relief' yourself!

Whether some people give up 'orders' to the universe and expect to go into retirement soon after ordering? Are there people whose role in life it is to live through the support of other people? I think there must be a flow in give and take - or?

That was an amazing story. I don't know if I'll take it literally. (grins) I'm dumb at times, but you're right. One should learn how to feed one's self. Be it in the physiological or spiritual aspect. Thanks for sharing.

This was a fascinating story! It is very interesting for you what came up when you approached your feeling of hunger consciously rather than just eating more muesli.

interesting...almost like another personality that consumes the food we eat!

What you observed is really interesting, I think, because the solar plexus traditionally represents our power.

Glad you are feeling better, Ray.

The way you analyze life leaves me in amazement... Knowing me I probably would have gone right back to that cereal...

Now talking seriously... this made me realize there is so much more to our daily actions... the things that affect our days... I want to begin to look closer at things I would normally dismiss. Thank You Ray for another enlightening moment
