The funny thing is that I've never heard Larry yell just because I've never heard any of his teleconferences nor have I attended any of his retreats when he is the instructor lol
The only audio of his I listened to is the Butt system.
The thing is...
Well what I sense personally with Larry is that he is doing it from a loving place; he can yell and I am unbothered by it.
Especially on the Butt System and Love Yourself CD sets he is very different. I'm looking forward actually to meeting Larry ...
Thank you Tom for your elaborate answer. I have to say that I have never been good at intuitions. I have a number of examples where I felt that I didn't like a person at first and she finally ended up being a very nice and sincere person. The oppo...
There's a big distinction between a belief and intuition. Perhaps that distinction is unclear to you, so I will give my definition of intuition and belief.
The ego will never help you to be safe, in the first place. That's what intuition does. If...
Tom: That's what I meant. I need to do a lot of releasing to accept Larry as a teacher.
Question: How do we know that it's a limiting belief or pure intuition?
Example: Suppose a mother of a little boy happens to meet a person in the family who s...
I have to say that when I went to the live class in September, I was already high. But the exercises we did there put me in a much higher state. And yes if I didn't have responsbibilities I would love to go for a 7 day retreat.
To accept Larry the...
I would love to go to the final step retreat and that is the main reason for going to this recent w/end., to see if I could cope with his style
I do not know if I will go to another basic w/end. Those experiences on the Sunday were amazing but who...
Wow Zannie, I'm glad I asked for the review again; otherwise, I would have never known that it existed! I couldn't post there as I'm not a member. All I can say is that I find your review very helpful and we can see that you had many gains. Now te...
You know Per everything that's related to the practice of Presence and living in the Now interests me becaue I know how beneficial it is. I will most certainly buy some of his books. Now which book do you recommend I start with?
Hi lilar, tried to send a PM, with no luck, so here goes:
Hi Lilar,
I´ll answer you in a PM for 2 reasons; 1) not to discourage anyone, and 2) most of the members who has been on this board from the start, plus the board (Kiss) where we "met", knows of my frustrations.
When I first started releasing ) Hale´s version) I was in a rather tough spot. For a brief while - a couple of months - it was fantastic, I was hooked. As I progressed it sort of stalled, and nothing really happened. After app. 6 months I became discouraged, went to London to a seminar with Hale, hoping to regain the magic of releasing. That didn´t happen, I was bored out of my scull, Hales way of teaching didn´t really agree with me.
Still, I kept going, releasing even more. I began to do more of Larry´s stuff, his style was more appealing to my way. Did the basic course, the G & R-course, several times, did 2 seminars with Larry.
At one time I almost became a monk, went all the way - "having everything by releasing only".
As time progressed, and I wasn´t very impressed with the gains, I´ve had way more gains from other tech´s. I think I can sum up the gains in this list: Healed herpes simplex a few times, healed a backpain, manifested app. 2000 $, in 5 years.
At the Kiss-board Steve Seretonin (the SS of the Kisstapo), someone who has been releasing for more than 25 years came off (to me) as a very not-released guy, scolding a lot of people in very inarticulate and downright unintelligent ways. I took a screenshot of some of his posts, and kept it for a while, just for laughs.
That was quite discouraging, though it was the birth of this board.
Last fall I decided to let the method go, but somehow couldn´t, released even more, and kept getiing more and more discouraged and frustrated.
At this point my life was worse than ever; I´ve lost my company, started a new one, lost that, lost my house, family, had to get on wellfare, just not a life I´d recommend to anyone.
At the MSN-board (now Multiply) and the Kiss-board, I know of a british guy, who released for 10 years, pretty much matching my experiences.
Plus, there are concepts within SMaRT that doesn´t quite agree with me, for instance I love my mind, it gives me great joy, and wouldn´t be without it. Also, I enjoy the belief: " Desire is possibilty seeking expression or function seeking performance" (Wallace Wattles). From that POV I wouldn´t want to release desires.
This spring I did it, quit releasing and after just a short while began to get my life back. I´ve been (mostly) progressively happier, more in tune with myself and have more money than in 5 years, ever since.
Now...I think that SMaRT is a nice system for some people, and not for others. I´m one of others in this respect, and just sorry I didn´t recognize it sooner.
I still point people toward SMaRT, if I deem it suitable for them. I´m happy for the people that has success with this method, good for them.
