How many of you have felt an "emotional connect" with someone? Or at times, even with something? Why I am using the word "something" in this write-up, I shall explain later.
Before i tell you about this emotional connection, let me ask you if you have "felt disconnected" with the people you interact with?
I am sure the answer to this would be a definite YES. Many times and most of the times, it is a disconnected relationship. Just like a morse code ...-..-.-. You conveying information and the other end receiving that information. You need the dots and the dashes to complete the relaying of information...the hmms, the ifs n buts to complete those conversations we loathe. The first opportuntiy we get to end that conversation, we grab it. Dispassionate way of existence! But exist, we must. N we continue with this farcical existence.
Now, let's say you suddenly start feeling something or feeling for someone or something without receiving those dots or dashes. No particles striking you. No physicality involved.
Suddenly, the waves start surrounding you and infuse you with positive energy. You feel it, right? And, you also feel good about it, right?
Even silence enables you to relate to them. The strength of these thought waves is so great that it keeps you bonded. Such is the depth of that relationship. It runs deep, far away from the surface ripples!!
This relationship is most often talked of, as existing between two persons. Can this same effortless relationship exist with "something"? That something could be one's work, hobby or even apparently mundane things like studying.
When would this silent receptiveness set in? If you surrender to God or Nature's own elements and let go, you are right there!!
Be receptive to your surroundings...the book/notes you are staring at, the file you are poring into, the patient whom you want to "dispose", do whatever and simply finish it off.
When you are receptive to the waves emanating from these somethings, a power like gravity would envelop you. You may not see it but it would wield a force that makes you go back to it, again and again! Bcos you have developed a feeling/affection/love for it. The "feeling" happens only when your mind is kept free of clutter, to let this energy come in. The bond is established. No surface ripple can disturb you now bcos you have internalised 'em all.
Now that you are "emotionally connected", you don't seek constant nor external validation. You simply will ruminate, in perfect silence!
Likewise, even when you are not actively eating(replace eating with "studying"), you keep ruminating("revising") on what you have chewed("read") already. You can't ruminate if you pounce to keep biting at every new thing that comes your way. You'll only bloat and belch stale!!
Stay emotionally connected, stay invested in that state and ruminate!!!
