Time: week three

“Connecting time and the belly”: I want to answer.   

I´m usual thinking much, less feeling. But I dicovered, that somestimes there was a feeling in the belly. It happens, I can´t make it. (I sometimes thinking: I want to listen with the throat – and it happens, not the same with the belly.) But sometimes the belly seems to ´answer´ when I´m doing something. For example: I read a paragraph in a book of Tarthang Tulku. I didn´t understand anything, but the belly ´answered´. (This does not happen with other books, for example with K. Wilber or other famous novels). And now, with the exercises in TSK, I said/thought: I will look for time – and the belly ´answered´. This feeling is not what I sometimes feel with exitement (a subtil trembling) . It seems to be a ´answer´like ´yes´ or ´I understand´or something in this direction. But what or who says ´yes´?

 ….”not to get attached to nonstandard experiences” . But to see actually many peas on a plate is (for me) nonstandard. Why not enjoy this, to show hospitality, to be a good host – and then let them (the ´good´ and ´bad´experiences)go? Could this be the meaning of “to dive in”?
