"Watching" and "Contemplating" Therapies

Some time ago I wrote about a "new bird therapy" ( New Bird Therapy -Dummies Wanted ). I wanted to precise that I do not say that bird watching is not an effective therapy. I wanted to say only about not correct persons that like to look for dummies.

Here I want to tell you some my thoughts about 2 different "therapies". "Watching" and "Contemplating".

"Watching" means observing, emotional partecipation, involving. It means the division between like and not like.

Example. You go in a boat for whale watching and "partecipate" on the hunt: killer whales kill the calf of the whale you come to watch. Surely it will be a tragedy for you, great suffering. Because you like the big whale and her calf.

Other example. You watch pigeons. You think, they are so as all the fables told you from your birth. But it's not so. If you begin to watch these birds, you will find a very cruel life, behaviour of these "pacific" beings. If you watch them you canot "fly" happy in the sky. You are emotionally involved and you suffer (mostly) for what you see.

So, "watching" results not a therapy but an other suffering because creating "disturbing" emotions.

"Contemplating" is a sort of healing when you have to calm your mind and follow something that has no sense, meaning, with the aim not to create "disturbing" emotions. Repeat mantras, listen to the neutral sounds, dancing when you are completely concentrated on your movements, on the rhythm, on the neutral sound, view, light etc. If you do it regularely, you create a habit that will really heal you.

Examples of these sounds you can find in some of my previous posts like these

Animals In Our Dreams

(Photo)
This is a theme that is relative to the animals totems.

In some cases our dreams have important significance for us. Not all dreams are important. How can we understand if it is THAT dream?

As I wrote just in this blog, the main point is that we have to analyze our dreams. All of them. With time it will give us the possibility to understand if the dream is important or it is only ordinary job of the mind.

As for me, I often see something important in the state when I don't sleep but am in the relaxed, ready to sleep state.
When I dream something important, I wake up and remember the dream very clearly. The teachings say: you have to write the dream when you wake up in a blocknote that you take near the bed. I never do it because I will not sleep more if I begin to write.
The other possibility is that an important dream you will see it different times till you resolve the problem.

All this you know just because we spoke about it before. What is new in this post?
New for me is the other technique I read about today.

If you dream a "special" animal, you have to analyze this animal. It can give you clues to understand the message that your conscious wants to send you.
So, what have we to analyze?
The behaviour of this animal, is it diurnal or nocturnal, what is it's habitat, is it solitary or lives in group, what is it's diet.

This analyzis can help you to understand the message. Often it's enough to our mind that we NOTICE the message.
"I see this big animal because I feel oppressed by somebody, my boss, as example."
To be conscious of the problem is the first step to resolve it.

New Bird Therapy -Dummies Wanted

Sometimes I am surprized to read about new therapies. I do not understand the persons that write it. The last new (for me) therapy I read about was a "watching the bird" therapy. What it is?

You have to watch birds and notice their behaviour. The birds are very brave to survive in this world. They know how to treat other birds or animals or something else. They know that they have not fight with other birds because it can be dangerous for them. If they have a wound, they could not survive -and so the birds do not fight. You have to learn this behaviour and live this way.
Second. Listen how the birds use their voices and breath. Learn it. Use it in your life.

More or less this is the main line of the therapy.

First of all, I don't understand: are there limits when the vendors stop to look for stupid humans? Sometimes the authors are completely without any sense of shame. But if they do it, means there are somebody that WANTS it?

Second. If you know something about the life of the birds (and other animals) you will never tell such ...mmm... stories. It is unpossible to invent this sort of nonsense if you know them.

Or we need to be defrauded to feel happy?
