Churning Inside of Us
Posted On 07/29/2008 21:41:21 by Bodhi


Was there ever a point in your life where you feel a deep churning? As if there has been a big mistake? or as if there is something wonderful you might have missed? Sometimes it takes the form of an unspeakable emptiness that drives us beyong ourselves...sometimes its an unstoppable melancholy, a undefined longing, a sadness so great it seems to come from the depths of the universe? I do. If you feel that way too, then we are in for the ride of our life. Some say this is the existential angst, a dreariness that mixes with boundless joy that life is so beautiful yet death is the fate of all of us--without any consolation. Some say this is the voice of the divine mind working in all of us so that we are called to participate in the creation of a new world. Some say this is an inner boiling of contradictions of modern man, where one wallows in external affluence yet sinks in internal loneliness. Some say it is an inner revolution so that we need to transform ourselves and the world. Whatever it is, i would like to see it as a creative crisis, elemental creative force in all of us...that playful spiritual being that pushes us forever onwards to our dreams...

Hi Bodhi :)

From what I understand through various associations, there are a lot of people feeling "something" that springs up, then goes away, springs up, then goes away. Everybody seems to be calling it something different and then relating it into their personal belief systems as it fits. But, whatever we want to call this overwhelming feeling that hits sometimes, the feeling is there right now for many people. Me too.

How I'm looking at this is that some of us are probably picking up "something" very similar to what animals do before a natural disaster hits. When animals try to tell their two-legged loved ones to move away from danger before a natural disaster, they are the ones working toward the happy future.

"...then we are in for the ride of our life." Yes. That's exactly what those feelings are saying. But, we can't be short-sighted in this; the ride will end. Then we can all go over to the snack-bar for a treat.
