Sure. I have stomach pain that seems connected to certain foods if I consume them. I would like to make it irrelevant. Right now, when I feel the pain, I speak a mantra. I tried imagining playing jump rope with the pain, but that didn't work as well as the mantra. I've thought about consuming the foods, facing whatever symptoms pop up with the mantra but not sure if that's a good idea.
Quoting: U3 The best magic is not that which goes poof! but that which works within the reality we have fashioned but still makes us exclaim "of course!". And sometimes the best way for a wizard to appear across town is simply to walk there. And when the time comes where it makes sense to, to appear there instantly. Wouldn't it require less energy to just stop eating what gives you pain? You may see resistance as not eating the food, when it may actually be that you are resisting your physical nature by consuming the food. Perhaps there is something else you're not considering?I think that's probably closer. ^^^^^^^ For example, I don't think I really want to be here. I couldn't eat for the first month of my birth. And there are other things that from observation, would make this my conclusion. The trouble with not eating certain foods that seem to start the pain is, in many cases, it's inconsistent. I can eat something one day and not the next. The things that are consistent means I have to read labels, question waiters if I go out to eat.....it's a constantly having my mind on food. How can I become another person and think new thoughts if I always have to be aware of these challenges? There is often a gap, particular in our human lives, between what we want or think we want, and what is relative to us. Being here may not be what you want, but surely it relates to you somehow (your logic, your existence, your purpose, or whatever it may be called) You don't need to become another person and think new thoughts. You are everywhere and every person you need to be, right now. Are they challenges, or parts of your reality? (Parts of you) It sounds a bit like resistance. What do you think?
