Question about putting more in the Vortex
Posted: Thu May 23, 2024 5:06 pm
Hey,
I have a question that relates to a quote that I found, but now am wondering about:
"This has been a great day, whatever it was, because at its worst, I put more good stuff in the Vortex, and at its best, I realised some of it" - AH
The part i'm wondering about is the "at its worst, I put more good stuff in the Vortex".
I've come up with an analogy to explain my question, because I am curious about it. Suppose you were a brand new-born adult, with no past, and a blank Vortex. You're walking along a street and come to a traffic junction. There you see a wonderful red Lamborghini car. It is beautiful, you know it is expensive, you admire it and pop one straight into your Vortex. As you cross the street and keep walking on, you then think about how you wish you could have one, and lament the fact that you can't afford it. That negative lament is your indicator that you believe you can't have this Lambo (your desire), while your inner being is driving it (vibrationally) in your Vortex.
So far so good, now here we refine my question:
Suppose the next day, you remember this same Lambo and again rue the fact that you don't have it, or can't have it. The negative emotion means the same things.
But on this new day, you're thinking about something you already had put in the Vortex yesterday. You're not really putting anything NEW in your Vortex, just dredging up the old item and feeling the discord of the belief you can't have it.
And this can extend into another day, and another day, etc. Again, nothing NEW going into the Vortex, just a repeat if you will.
So the thing is, I want to believe the part "at its worst, I put more good stuff in the Vortex", as a very lovely way to remind or assure myself that ANY time I feel ANY negative emotion, it's actually really wonderful and beneficial for me, because I'm actually putting more stuff into my Vortex. However, if I'm thinking about things I'd already thought about before (and thus already put in the Vortex), is that a sort of caveat to that line? ie; if you're feeling negative emotions about the same few things usually, then no, you're not actually putting more good stuff in your Vortex.
So if that's the case, could the statement above not exactly be true, as in there are times where I'm just wasting my time dwelling on the negative emotion of stuff I already put in the Vortex, if I ever think about it more than once?
Or perhaps (and this is the missing link I'm hoping someone might be able to see or point out for me), the tiny and slight variations such as (oh it would've been nice to have had the Lambo to attend that party) or (I've been wanting it for a week now, imagine if I had already gotten it sooner than that), etc..? is how it adds to the Vortex?
I will try to rephrase one last time: Is it 100% true 100% of the time that whenever you feel negative emotion, about anything, you're putting more good stuff in the Vortex, EVEN IF, you're mostly negatively emoting about the same things?
Thanks,
