Family attachments in my psyche
My Background
Today I would write about my family attachments in the psyche.
From the moment I was born into this family, until the present day, my immediate family and I developed a relationship, which I have to consider as a strong bond. We would try to maintain our relationship until today .
Since it was mainly my mother who did the bulk of the upbringings of us all 7 in total I would try my best to show that gratitude as I go along . That had now become a strong bond , not only with my mother but also most of my other siblings .
When I started my quest to seek out a more spiritual side of life. I was told before, I realised for myself I have to break off that bond with the family since that bond would only slow down my progress. My family are church goers and don’t have any interest in my quest for spiritual understanding, because for them, all they have to do is to believe in Christ and they will be liberated
My views and psychic struggle
n my quest for spiritual awakening, I learn from my own experience, and the experience of my predecessors that spirituality is a lot more sophisticated than just this believing concept. And require a more subtle approach .
As I dived deeper into my practice of yoga, I learned I have to break the psyche from all material attachments including my family. Since this attachment had been going on for many cycles. The detachment of the psyche from all relatives is and had been one of the most difficult practices since it is more subtle and requires expert assistance from one who has, had accomplished such a task.
You have to be careful not to offend anyone as you go along since that would only cause more impediments on the path and could result in you wanting to give up. So I've been very patient with my psyche and focus on not giving it too much energy whenever I have a thought about my family or other relatives .
This is my experience so far. I'm very sure I'll have lots more to write about as a quest to break my psyche from family attachments continues.
