Xamanismo Coletivo<p>"If we lack <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/basictrust" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>basictrust</span></a>, it becomes important for us to develop it. Development here does not mean building up some new experience of self. It means experiencing the factors which brought about the original profound disconnection from reality and, in particular, experiencing repeatedly the fundamental truth of nonseparateness to the point where the soul can again rest in the knowledge of that truth. Each new experience of essential truth deepens <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/theSoul" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>theSoul</span></a>’s contact with her own basic trust."</p>
Xamanismo Coletivo<p>"So if <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/basictrust" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>basictrust</span></a> is present, <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/theSoul" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>theSoul</span></a> will more easily let go of old structures, will more easily settle into simply being, and will tend to let its process unfold without interference, which will lead naturally toward essential development. Without basic trust, the attitude of <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/ego" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ego</span></a> will predominate; the soul will lack implicit confidence in her life and process. The ego will try to take things into its own hands and manipulate, pushing things one way or the other, resulting in the further isolation and entrenchment of ego."</p>
Xamanismo Coletivo<p>"The <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/ego" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ego</span></a>’s perspective arises out of a lack of this trust [<a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/basictrust" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>basictrust</span></a>]. It is based on distrust, on paranoia, on fear, on the conviction that you’re not going to be adequately taken care of and that the universe is not there to hold and take care of you in the ways that you need. This conviction causes you to believe that you have to engage in all kinds of manipulations and games to get your needs met and to make things work out."</p>
