Replanting the seed

Every time we catch ourselves in a reactive mode, we usually perceive our reactive emotions. But in order to transform our reactivity, we have to see the thought causing it.

Trees have four basic levels of manifestation:
Seed ~ Trunk ~ Branches ~ Fruit

We go through four similar levels in our reality:
  • Seed corresponds to consciousness (that under the radar voice)
  • Trunk corresponds to feelings and emotions
  • Branches correspond to actions
  • Fruit represents our reality
Even though we try to shut down our reactive feelings, if we do not change our consciousness by stopping those thoughts, at the seed, then we are not really changing our reactive nature.
