Hi Wisdom,
I enjoyed your free thinking and questioning in your posts. If I may share an idea or two…..
1) Worthy – My understanding of this word surrounds worth. What is my worth to myself or to someone else. Worth has a value point, or a score as such, which is by its own nature limited.
If my worthiness within is a value, then it is also changeable. This is something I could reevaluate and measure myself. Be my own cheerleader or critic. If it is worthiness from someone else, then this is something I can not control, and the only thing I can do to is accept what they choose. Remember acceptance does not mean agree, nor does it mean I am obligated to devalue my own worthiness based on someone else’s ‘score’ of me. I have tried changing myself, to improve my worthiness in another’s eye, but ultimately, I can never control that, so acceptance is the only true act I have.
My mind wanders from worthiness to love at this point. Love is not limited. Not an ego love, but true love. Perhaps if I were to allow myself to truly love who I am….. then I can not see where worthiness comes into the equation any longer.
2) Intuition vs Feeling – This can be difficult when my mind is busy…. which happens a lot. My simple test is based on the lemon experiment. Imagine a lemon in your mind, and see how you feel…. Now imagine biting into the lemon, and notice the change. It is a strong, loud and physically moving experience – especially if you don’t like eating lemons. Feelings are changeable based on the mind and it’s activity – vibrant, heavy, tingly, shivery etc…. and can go all over the body. This for me is feeling/emotion.
Now take a few slow breaths and rest your mind. Don’t focus on all the thoughts running around. Peacefully ask “Do I love myself” Do not focus on the minds response, but on your body – it is a deeper feeling than the lemon. This is quiet, calm, and expansive with no edge. This for me is intuition.
I am happy to respond with more – but perhaps there is some information in the above to answer your other two questions.
Take care
Evan
