Back into your nucleus, back into your core - getting in touch with who you are - Dr. Yuvraj Kapadia

Continuing from where I left off in the last video, even if we look at this full story from a functional objective, which means, let's cut this metaphysical crap! Let's keep it straight, let's keep it simple, and let's keep it practical.
So you are living life, OK cool, and you are in a situation, which is bad! This bad situation is really making you upset. You have got pissed! Or you are very angry or you are very scared or you are just feeling very helpless. Reality check, yes, it happens to many people a hell of a lot of times.
So,the first golden rule of the process, when you are in the heat of the emotion, don't defy it, don't deny it, whatever that it is you are feeling, feel it. Be with it completely, because the mental thought of knowing that you shouldn't feel this way but you are feeling that way actually makes you feel more helpless. So when you are in the grip of it, live it out. You have a light side, you have a dark side, maybe you are reacting out of your dark side, that's fine, that's what you are, embrace it in totality. Be done with it. This is what you are and that is what it is.
This phase will die down, it might last a few minutes, it might last a few hours, in the worst situation a few days but after a while on its own, it will settle down. Here my friends is where I would ask you to be a little vigilant. So when you are in the grip of it, I am asking you to live it, don't criticise yourself for it, don't negate yourself for it, take responsibility for it. This is what you felt in that moment and you experienced it in totality.
Once the experience is over, as long as it takes, then you go back to the nucleus I spoke to you about in the previous video. Go back into your space and start thinking what do I need to do in my behavior so that I feel happy, that's all. Don't look at the logic of it, don't look at the morality of it, don't look at the ethics of it.
Social platitudes are what will keep you in the game of life and death for longer than you think, because the most pleasing truth of life is that the divine is in your heart and lives in the language of love which only means that the one focus that you should have in this life, should be that you will be happy. That is the only responsibility that you have.
Which now means that when you are checking back into your space neutrally looking at your emotions all you need to do is, figure out, so how should I have behaved in that moment for me to be at peace with myself. That's all, because, being at peace with yourself in the moment of crisis is exactly what life mastery is all about and that only you know the answer to.
So when I talk about going back into your nucleus, going back into your core and checking out the positive charge, the positive charge has nothing to do with people. The positive is you feeling good about yourself.
So all you need to do is, go back, and say ok, this time, this is what transpired, this was my reaction, and this reaction made me feel helpless, and then check how could I have behaved so that I could have felt very good about myself. Period! end of the story. That response will come, for sure. Sometimes, that response might appear antagonistic to other people, their choice. But for you that response is vital, for you to touch base with your core story.
And if the core story is being at peace with yourself, you need to focus on your own response and then, the next time that situation comes in front of your eyes just have the courage to respond differently; demonstrate that response which gives you peace, whether it is speaking up for yourself, or shouting back matters not. Demonstrate the response that gives you peace in your heart, because, the peace in your heart is the hallmark of being in the zone. The hallmark of being in the zone then lays out the framework for all the thoughts that you emanate out subsequently and those thoughts that you emanate out subsequently, then become the foundation of new reality which you are creating either advertently or inadvertently.
So even if you have to keep away all these philosophical statements, even if you had to keep away from every single thing, that you heard or read in the books or workshops or anywhere at all, You can just bring them down to this very simple exercise. When you are pissed off, get pissed off completely, when it is over, take charge of it, say, ok, I got pissed off, that is what I felt in that moment, then check how should you have behaved so that you didn't get pissed off and then no matter what the consequence, go ahead and behave differently. The moment this happens, the story starts changing, the reality starts changing, the manifestation starts changing.
It's a simple exercise; all it needs is a little bit of awareness, a little bit of courage.
