Calling Back Parts of Yourself

With paper and books piling up in my office, I reached again for Karen Kingston's Clear Your Clutter with Feng Shui ~ an excellent book on the topic ~ and found this:

"In Bali, they have a special ceremony known as “The Calling.” It is understood that as people go through life, parts of themselves fracture and split off. If this happens too much or, in the case of a sudden, traumatic event, too quickly, this can weaken the spirit of these people to a life-threatening extent. After being hurt in a road accident, as an example, a vital part of the healing process is for those who are injured to return with a Balinese Hindu priest or priestess to the place where it happened, to ceremonially purify the spot and call the part of the spirit they left there back to themselves. (If they are too sick to go there in person, a relative or friend can go on their behalf).

"A similar calling-back process happens when you clear the clutter in your life. As you release the things you no longer love or use, you call back to yourself the parts of your spirit that have been attached to them, and attached to the emotional needs and memories associated with those objects. In so doing, you bring yourself powerfully into present time. Your energy, instead of being dispersed in a thousand different, unproductive directions, becomes more centered and focused. You feel more spiritually complete and more at peace with yourself. All of this comes from simply clearing clutter. Amazing, isn’t it?"

Even our "alter ego" the computers once in awhile requires "Defragmentation".We are going through life and getting fragmented in the process . The Balinese people have found way to put some order in this natural process.

Logosynthesis – putting together with words – does this in a systematic way for fear, trauma, loss and other ways of disconnection from Essence.

Have a look at http://www.logosynthesis.net or just buy the book: http://www.amazon.com/Phrases-Freedom-Self-Coaching-Willem-Lammers/dp/1439247889/
