The voices have quieted, for now. I am overcome with feelings. I don’t know how to describe them… but they echo off those around me. When I clear my head, the people surrounding me calm. When I am filled with anger… it shows in those surrounding me. I have discovered that karma exists… and it is not as mystical as some make it out to be. I’m not sure what to make of it all…

^^^^I'll have what he ordered.

My friend called me early this morning. I picked him up and with him his wife, a stranger, and an old friend. I was filled with joy. After a conversation and some good music, we parted ways. I carried this with me all day and every person I came across looked at me with kind eyes, even if we didnt speak. The world is very beautiful. Can anyone relate?

Yes, I can relate to that, brother. Negativity begets negativity. We have the power to choose and through that choice we can change the world. Corny, but nonetheless, rings with truth.

Regarding what Yoh said before he erased it ( :p ), sometimes these states can bring out the worst in other people. Eckhart Tolle calls it the "pain body" and it is the collective emotional pain that you experience. It's there because the mind clings to certain things it deems "bad" or "good". So, if you were made fun of in the past and this really hurt you, in the future, if you still were attached to that part of your life, you would be really sensitive when, say for example, someone called you overweight. Because you were made fun of for being overweight as a child, in your now you are very sensitive to things that bring about that "pain memory". So when someone who is clear and full of light comes along, the pain body might come out because that persons energy is like a beacon of light. Darkness cannot exist in light, so the light brings out the dark spots in some people. Consider that a blessing if that ever happens.

Other things bring about this pain body as I've said anything that reminds you of your past and if you are still clinging to it.
