I awoke and I felt a cold dark fear, a desperation and a crying in pain and torment. Hundreds nay Thousands of souls in human bodies, shuddering from the sound of bombs and wondering if they would survive, hungry and thirsty fearing the knock or bursting door staring at masked persons and at a rifle, stripped searched thrown out of the home and imprisoned, tortured and dehumanised.
God help us and they feel they have been let down by God and their country and where do they turn in their despair, some choose suicide, others stoically, others rant and rage and can go mad, some look at their dismembered hand or leg, hand or eye and pray for their death or deliverance.
The scars physical and emotionally may never be erased and even when taken to a tent or some sort of relief place, may never find peace or rest, some keep their prayer, others despair.
And I what can I do help or assist. I give money to charity. I silently pray in stillness not a prayer for deliverance but for those perpetrators of this violent assault be made to see the suffering and have mercy and compassion, I feel deeply their pain and oppression and I do a puja and there are such assets as Tonglen (a Tibetan mind imagery which converts negative energy to a more positive stance) the puja is a means with Tonglen that came to me as I presented so many workshops and therapy sessions and they seemed to help many and situations, so I do these when it seems appropriate to do so as I feel that rote can be mechanical and the right timing and feeling in stillness or a spontaneous prompt seems more efficient and meaningful. Of course Great Spirit knows our Hearts and Minds and with all that goes on today Great Sprit does not ignore the cries and it does not fall on deaf ears, Great Spirit, God Almighty feels this but has a purpose in not interfering and remains a mystery of which I can intellectually comment but this is my ego and I can only remain in stillness and see the outcome as much as it distresses me.
