Thanks for your lengthy answer Kay.
I will have to sit with this, and see what my felt sense is about these
words.

Hi Anita,
Lovely to hear. We strike a balance with adversity when we remember to
include"that something higher" that Bert talks about. My experience is that
that something higher is a dimension of love. Osho my Indian master used to
talk alot about "the fourth dimension". My trainings in esoteric science
taught me that we are all multi dimensional beings. For example our 3 lower
centres or chakras are purely survival orientated and vibrate more with the
animal kingdom. Most of us live in these "in the jungle of life" where "kill
or be killed" is the collective word. However when one begins to meditate
and enter transformative processes involving the raising of consciousness,
life energy flows more and more via the heart centre, which is the "fourth
dimension".
In the heart centre there is a very real "centre of empitness" or a
"source" from where all life springs and returns to. One can only access it
when the mind is stilled and a fine inner tuning learns to feel comfortable
and safe residing there. In love one simply relaxes and trusts in something
greater, that works its wonder via the "unknown" magic of existance itself.
You can practice tuning into this space in your quieter moments. Sitting or
lying quietly and breathing into the heart it helps to imagine with every in
breath the heart is stretching...becoming wider....bigger......this is
actually an attunment to the wider bigger soul that Bert talks about. I
find it helps to remember situations or people in my life that I was with
when I entered this state of higher consciousness. The memory of light and
love infuses the present and pretty soon whammooo you're there. One thing
to note about the heart chakra is that it is the only centre of
our being that can expand to embrace the whole of existance. One cannot do
this via intellect or mind or even our biological sexual, sensual channels
they are all too narrow.
In a meditative state of being present in the here and now one uses the
outer senses to look hear, see, smell and feel with a deep inner awareness
of the heart. Looking, hearing and feeling via the heart has a totally
different quality to our biological senses. The key, and the difference for
converting these ordinary senses into the extrordinary is AWARENESS and
LOVE. When looking, tune into the heart, expand, relax, trust. When
listening also remain in the heart centre.
If one practices this in every moment of the day, it becomes a way of life,
an expanded state of living that can only resonate with something higher,
not lower. Lower vibrations cannot interfere with such a state....it is in
fact beyond them.
Hellinger in KL had us all practising this expanded state of looking. Look
at a spot anywhere..... shift your focus to a soft stare that now includes
all that the eyes can see.....an expanded vision. Move from using a tiny
part of your vision to all of it. In this you not only see that which you
were focusing on but all that is around what you focused on. In this way
you do not get lost in the part and have the opportunity to embrace the
whole. Our inner senses without awareness remain always with a part
picture. We need to learn to use them to perceive the whole. This can only
happen with practice and rememberance of being here and now every moment.
A multi dimensional awareness is needed. One that not only uses intellect,
but one that also embraces instinct and intuition. Many of us function in
only one of these. A complete or whole picture is never available with such
a narrow chanel of perception. Imagine the picture you will get when these
3 inner centres are fully engaged in the moment all together. Slowly slowly
it becomes a way of life that connects you to a higher movement.
The three lower centres (or chakras) of our metaphysical being are engaged
in intellect and instinct. The fourth is intuition. Intuition is the path
to love and trust. The inner dynamics of intuition are very scientific. I
would have to write another seperate article to outline the science of how
this works metaphysically in our system. Since I am a mad inner scientist
and passionate about these things I could do it if anyone is interested.
Perceiving in a positve way in life and constellations is scientific. It
follows a certain inner blueprint or map of understanding. It helps to know
about these things.
So to answer your question. That state of trust does not make us extememly
vulnerable to predators when one remains connected to "something higher".
You must be living in the world of conscience and survival where you fear
"being killed" and are also capable of "killing".
Perhaps this is a good place to start.
Thankyou for your question Anita, I hope I have been of some help to you
and others.
Lots of love to you
Sadhana
