1.Freedom from risk or danger; safety.
2.Freedom from doubt, anxiety, or fear; confidence.
Finding out our basic motivations is a long process of awakening self-awareness. We watch and take note of our actions and responses, of emotion triggered and expressed, of any circumstance that evokes energy. We start to listen to the messages our physical body is giving us - pockets of tension, knots that tighten, shakes and twitches, internal and external. We learn to break through the barriers of our pride and know the ways in which we - so skilfully- fool ourselves.
...at some point we will come across the blocking assumption which seems to sum up our whole lifetime, explaining every mistake and self-negation in its dreadful repeating pattern. It's not only a fact based upon some occurrence and adorned with attitudes which are our protective decisions... Perhaps these are the very reasons why we have chosen to incarnate: this pattern must be broekn. Only when we start to understand which motivations we hold deep inside us can we begin to live effectively, consciously creating our reality, evading erratic and destructive landslides.
