The question was asked by @susmita, member of our YATU forum. Thank you Susmita Barua!

Question:

“Do feelings Influence Reality?

I do not see much dialogue or clarity on that. There is a deeper dimension of reality (the tone or vibrational mood so to speak) that is affected by feeling and emotions. We do overthink, judge and reason to compensate for not having to feel especially unpleasant painful things. Any feeling or thoughts on that?”

As always, I welcome your comments! Please keep sending in your questions, making sure you use @question in your text!

Love,
Deepak

Dear @susmita:

Of course they do. As Reality is what you experience in your own Awareness, and Awareness IS Reality, feelings are included too. We are fascinated but what we “experience” out there as the only reality but in fact, even the experience of the “out there” is an experience, no?

The point is to choose the feelings, if possible, live them and notice how they come and go. Because Reality is made up of “things” which come and go. But what is constant, always there, is our own Awareness.

And You Are That!

Blessings,

Menas
