Mm ja Kradiff, Jamastris. He was end up talking about minds. I said of course. Lost in your mind. So we talk about mine. Let's talk about emotions. These are things That a yogi understands at levels That very few people do. What are emotions? First, do you have emotions? That's the question. Do you have emotion? How do you know? Okay, I'll send you home. Fish your homework. How do you know you have emotions? And you'd answer me with some wise cry because I feel them. Who feels that? You who feels the emotion is not the emotion. You who sees a ball is not the ball, you who sees a woman is not the woman, you who sees your hand is not your hand. You're the one who experiences an emotion. That's your first step. in understanding things.
There's a subject object relationship. You are the subject? And a ball is an object, person is an object, your nose is an object, your hand is an object, and emotion's an object. It's something you are aware of. To jump to the end from the beginning. You're gonna underquold his organization self realization fellowship. In other words, do you know who's in there? Let's figure it out. Because one thing you know is you're in there. Don't you know that? You know you're in. Okay? So you can't understand emotions. And to understand that you're the one experiencing the emotion. Then we start talking about, well, what makes them be the way they are and which ones are nice, which are not nice, which ones do I like, which ones I don't like, what do I do about it?
You are in there experiencing emotions. Can there be nice emotions? If I sent you home with your homework, list the nice emotions. By the way, you all would list something slightly different. All right. List the not nice emotions again. You know, generally you'd be close, but you would have different priorities. That's what you call nice emotions and not nice emotions, based on what? Your past experiences. Is love a nice emotion? Nah, when my heart is broken here she left me and He lost that love and feeling. So love and ice emotion, I could do without it. Okay. There are these emotions and you're in there experiencing them. And there are ones that are comfortable to you? And there are ones that are not comfortable to you.
And you spend your life. Trying to have the ones that are comfortable to you be going on. And have the ones that are not come to you, they're not going up. When you suppress, if we talk about suppression, you're not really suppressing you are suppressing your mental thoughts, but you're really suppressing your emotions. If you had a mental thought That was negative or one way or another not exactly optimal. But you feel good about it. Your heart was open. He laughed at it. Oh look at you. And your emotion can handle it. It's okay. But you're not that way. If you have emotions that are not comfortable to you, you suppress them. What does that mean? That's very important to understand for in terms of suppression.
It's exactly what he meant, but he just didn't talk at a deep enough level. I'm not belittling him. very great, great scientist, all right? But he didn't talk about the self. He didn't talk about who's in there suppressing. Who's in there and what power do they have? If you have an emotion you don't like, you push it away, don't you? You have will, you're in there, you have power. Who's doing that? It's one thing to say what is the emotion. It's more important to say who's experiencing it and who's deciding to push it away and what power do they have in there, because you can push it away. You do it all the time.
