I was recently approached by a dear friend regarding the hurt she suffered due to the scrutiny of others. It always intrigues me how we are emotionally ‘hurt’ by others – from friends to family as well as strangers.
If we look at this ‘hurt’, where exactly, do we feel it? Most will put their hands on their chests: ‘in here’, they will say. I myself have suffered this ‘hurt in my chest’ when I was younger, mostly due to love gone wrong. This has led me into seeking the reason for this ‘hurt’ we feel, and how to resolve it.
It is strange how this feeling of hurt should be in the chest area. We often refer to a ‘broken heart’. Why particularly the chest area? Think about feeling excited; where does one feel that? If you think carefully, you will feel it in the pit of your stomach. When we see an emotionally laden film, and try to repress our expression of sadness – we feel pain in our throats. When we feel sexually excited, we feel warmth in our loins…
Why do we sense certain emotions in certain parts of the body? It is interesting to note how these areas of the body coincide with the ancient Eastern texts describing the so-called chakra or energy points of the body-mind union. According to ancient Tantric and Yogic texts, the body has about 72 000 energy lines or nadi, and where these superimpose; shape the chakras of the body: the sacral (sacral area), sexual (loins), solar (pit of stomach), cardiac (chest), throat, brow and crown chakras – each with their own colour, sound frequency and purpose (which strangely coincides with the Pythagorean Lambdoma: the study of correlation between sound and light frequencies).
Furthermore, it is interesting to note how for instance the cardiac or ‘chest’ chakra – associated with the giving and receiving of love and compassion energy – is exactly the area where we feel emotional hurt, or warmth when we feel love for someone. So does the hurting throat due to repression of expressive emotion coincide with the throat chakra, which is the chakra for expression. Maybe the most impressive coincidence is that of the brow or ‘third eye’ chakra, associated with ESP. In this same area lies the mysterious pineal gland, which is most likely responsible for the secretion of a substance called DMT (dimethyltryptamine), which in elevated levels, will cause one to ‘hallucinate’. No other function for this substance has been found so far. Research has shown (see Dr. Rick Strassman’s book: DMT – Spirit Molecule) that people experiencing elevated levels of DMT, experienced profound altered states of consciousness (stamped hallucinations by reductionist science), and caused them to have deep insight into their own subconscious minds. Some of them even conquered long-standing depression and other emotional problems. Why would the human body secrete a substance (higher in those with acute schizophrenic break disorder, birth and near death experience), that has no other cause than that of ‘hallucinations’, and also by a gland in the body with no clear understanding (also containing magnetite which is sensitive to the earth’s magnetic field) which coincides with the ancient texts’ Third Eye chakra? Doesn’t this just fumble with that critical thinking switch in your head, pushing you a bit further into questioning the typical western dogma we are force fed daily?
And speaking of schizophrenia – it is probably one of the most misunderstood phenomena in western civilization. It is seen by psychiatry as a mental ‘disorder’ with a poor prognosis that needs to be suppressed with drugs. But, Dr. John Weir Perry followed the advice of the great Carl Jung, who thought it to be a personal apocalypse: when the dream becomes real due to a severely suppressed subconscious mind. He followed a non-suppressive (drug) approach, where individuals were only given a safe haven and psychotherapy to guide them through their ‘psychosis’. In about 40 days, the ‘psychosis’ would seize, and the individual would be ‘cured’. This proved to be a far better approach to schizophrenia, with much better long term benefits to the ‘patients’ and their families. Not for the multi-million dollar Phramaceutical companies though…
