We began the five-day animation programme for the Brothers of the three provinces of Mumbai, Panjim and Hyderabad today at Matunga. The first day was very packed... more intense than the retreat I attended last week. Anyway, let me see what I can draw out of it. While I'm here I also need to sort out the issues regarding the next Brothers' Congress and related stuff which I've been asked to oversee.
Today's sessions were basically a call to focus on our feelings, and not hide or take shelter in our ideas and thoughts. Using the Esop's fable of the fox and the grapes, the animator was trying to help us delve into our inner beings, to spell our feelings rather than quote our theories and thoughts. As part of it, we were asked to trace the source(s) of any one of our physical illnesses. I really was struggling!
One thing is sure, I'm no 'feeling-person'; I certainly do feel safe in the world of thoughts and ideas!
