“If men as individuals surrender to the call of their elementary instincts … the result for them all taken together must be a state of insecurity, of fear, and of promiscuous misery.”  Albert Einstein (1879 – 1955) German-American physicist/philosopher

 The Sacral Chakra or Instinctual Self  & Misery Release Meditation (7:13)

Analysis: Stripped Bare

Defects wear deceptive faces. 12 & 12 exposes hidden gluttony. We cloak laziness in five comforting syllables. Furthermore, procrastination shields our fragile egos. Albert Einstein warned against surrendering blindly. Elementary instincts breed promiscuous misery everywhere. Therefore, profound surrender demands absolute honesty.

A Higher Power removes deep shortcomings. It Works, How & Why inspires growth. True healing requires complete emotional transparency. Wellbriety teachings foster lasting spiritual balance. “Humility unlocks the door to freedom” (White Bison, 2002, p. 134). Wise mentors guide our transformation daily. We finally embrace authentic inner peace.

¿ALGUNA VEZ TE HAS SENTIDO DESNUDO; QUEDANDO EXPUESTO A MOSTRAR NUESTRA “MISERIA PROMISCUA” ANTE TODO EL MUNDO? – PASO 7

LAS MÚLTIPLES CARAS FALSAS DEL DEFECTO –

“Cuando la glotonería es menos que ruinosa, tenemos una palabra más suave para eso… la llamamos ‘tomar nuestra comodidad’.” “Consideremos también nuestros talentos para la procrastinación, que en realidad es la pereza en cinco sílabas… y pocos de nosotros pensaríamos seriamente en abandonarlos, al menos hasta que nos causan una miseria excesiva.” (12 & 12, p. 67)

UN NIVEL MÁS PROFUNDO DE RENDICIÓN –

“Pedirle a nuestro Poder Superior que elimine nuestros defectos requiere una rendición de naturaleza más pronunciada que nuestra rendición inicial. En este nuevo nivel de rendición, aceptamos no solo nuestra adicción sino también los defectos relacionados con nuestra adicción.” (It Works, How & Why, p. 50)

ALBERT EINSTEIN –

“Si los hombres como individuos se rinden al llamado de sus instintos elementales… el resultado para todos ellos en conjunto debe ser un estado de inseguridad, de temor y de miseria promiscua.”

— Albert Einstein (1879 – 1955), físico y filósofo germano-estadounidense

Análisis

Los defectos usan rostros engañosos. 12 & 12 expone la gula oculta. Disfrazamos la pereza en cinco sílabas reconfortantes. Además, la procrastinación escuda nuestros egos frágiles. Albert Einstein advirtió contra rendirse ciegamente. Los instintos elementales engendran una miseria promiscua en todas partes. Por lo tanto, la rendición profunda exige honestidad absoluta.

Un Poder Superior elimina los defectos profundos. It Works, How & Why inspira el crecimiento. La verdadera curación requiere una transparencia emocional completa. Las enseñanzas de Wellbriety fomentan el equilibrio espiritual duradero. “La humildad abre la puerta a la libertad” (White Bison, 2002, p. 134). Los mentores sabios guían nuestra transformación diariamente. Finalmente abrazamos la paz interior auténtica.

    Unaddressed anger acts like an internal poison, that causes bitterness that clashes with the loving peace from my Higher power…

    Anything that I used to escape being responsible or accountable became a deadly sin that I chose to let go. I continue to ask my Higher Power to guide me and do thy will in this task every day.

    Gluttony has been causing me the most trouble lately. I mean living in consumerism, wanting *more* of any given thing just for the sake of it. Especially at the expense of my actual material needs. Balance is a skill, not a talent.

    Being vulnerable and willing to surrender are keys to change. this starts when we begin to seek a new way of being the healing can begin. Every moment is an opportunity to become vulnerable and start to surrender. Then we attract support and through continued action in this direction the support rallies, including our Higher Power.

    Thank you for sharing recovery with me. Grateful.

    Well it’s impossible for me to hide anything from myself however I think substitution can rear its ugly head when there’s no buffer left. Sugar has always been my go-to. But I talk about it so it’s no secret so I Surrender into the discipline mode now. I know God’s will for me is to stay healthy and beware of other patterns that could be harmful staying healthy will help my spiritual well-being as well as my physical well-being

    When i see utter insanity repeat it in my life, I know true surrender is an option, and true surrender to my HP. Right now, I set small goals that have been bein’ successful until I meet those eternal true goals that I want to surrender. Reminiscin’ can cause a lot of pain, and that’s when again I can build more up, and truly surrender. I also can’t wait till those people who like to tempt people are completely not surroundin’ us as well.

    Gluttony and sloth are my major downfalls at the moment. I crave stimulation and don’t want to work for it all at the same time. It’s a vicious cycle that isn’t something I like about myself and want to change, but feels like they are dug into the essence of me. How does one even pull these things out? Probably time, effort, and patience. All hard when you’re a gluttonous sloth 😐

    For me, procrastination is another word for FEAR. I would rather do nothing than risk failure. As I learn to turn my defects over to the God of my understanding, I am learning to put one timid foot in front of the other. I won’t get there fast, and I know I can get there.

    I’ve been working on my impatience by not reacting every time some one or something doesn’t seem to go as I think it should.
