Blocks, Leaks and Limitations

I suppose in every journey there are road blocks. I have been stalled in front of one for about three weeks. I know I must become committed to working towards its dissolvement. Yet, this block is not a small or ordinary one like those meant to simply strengthen us in life. No, this one has lasted the past fifteen years. In this inquiry, I am realizing it is a block about identity and potential, lodged there from past experiences with loss and abandonment, and the socialization of restricted permission, inadequacy, and self-doubt. More accurately this block is a combination of little woundings that occurred early on in life. Such wounding, even more accurately, exist as energy leaks, depleting vital life force and potential to live out life purposes. Though emotional, it is also psychosomatic and manifests itself in depression, inertia, and recurring belief systems and lived patterns. These blocks, wounding, and energy leaks limits our fullest capacities to thrive, serve, and give to the world. The process of deep self Inquiry is a shamanic journey, in that its facilitates the retrieval of the soul, a return to our Ground, Keirkegaard would say. The ONLY way these blocks can be healed, not just merely cured, is by practicing Presence, facing, and opening to our deepest fears, and receiving what is, what is really true in our experience. It is a process of remembering. My task is to remember these truths daily and moment by moment. As I do, the blocks are moving, and my winter will transform into spring, and the Spring to Summer and the Summer to Harvest.
