    I had a conversation with my father one day in the 60's. I told him there could be no good without the bad. I told him you can't have pleasure without pain. He didn't buy it. I was only 16 and he was over 50. Not sure he ever understood my reasoning. Just not sure. He had some crafty attributes but I think I got my logical mind from my mother. A dichotomy from mother to son. She got me all kinds of stuff I don't think he quite understood. Then he died at 56, and I thought that was really old. I am now 75 and know how young that really is.

      Hi, everyone I have a secret for you reveal. The reason why the United States of America and the Vatican keep delayed time by playing the voting game between President Biden with President Trump even though they know their children is going to die for no reason because if the Tibet and India know Pope Francisco does not want to see Holy Dalai Lama but he sent a Vietnamese came to Tibet say Vatican and NATO will liberate the Tibet and India. In contrary; every time NATO visit any country, Pope Francisco will visit that country. They do know the Vatican had done with Tibet 's citizens, thus they don't even say sorry. Secondly; I hope the India' citizens please pay attention.
      Don't you think this is disrespectful.

    Everything we feel starts in our brain.
    Everything
    It is the physical pain my brain has a hard time with.
    If my brain is seeking a way to lower pain I am experiencing it doesn't have time to think about anything else. Then when you get it down your brain is playing catch up with what you didn't get accomplished. So pleasure is put on the back burner.
    I can spend hours in prayer so I don't feel the pain yet once I am done praying the pain is still there and the cycle starts all over again.

    Your knowledge on addiction is remarkable for someone whom has never had the experience, i say that in awe. Addictions to pleasure or pain can be stopped instantly, when it is the correct time it happens in an instant. The process of becoming addicted to anything takes time and a certain degree of effort, there is a process to remove an addiction, so it may seem some just stop, but i feel they have gone through a process first and then the stopping seems instant from the outside. Recognize, observe, understanding, then control and finally removal. The core of the issue is why do we look for pleasure or pain, what about this life has caused the human mind to feel constrained, why some purposely seek numbness, Psychology can pick it all apart, pills, gene therapy or DNA sequencing may prevent for the meantime, but there is a deeper driving force that needs to be addressed on these matters, your knowledge will help many of the addicted, i appreciate you addressing areas that seem beyond understanding to most and are not comfortable for many, we as one need to nurture and care for all. New technology needs ascertaining on if it has the place to remove someone else's experience. it needs to be trodden very carefully for not causing an unknown undue error, intention is a leveler.

  • @sasaradetic2202
    @sasaradetic2202 Před rokem +3

    Everyone has their own problems and difficulties in life. Even the rich and famous. Although we mostly and often see them only when they enjoy them selves. So in our ignorance and superficiality we judge them, like they are living their lives only in pleasures. And we end up envy them and resent them, wanting what they have. Wile at same time we feel pride in their success and we worship them. And when problems accumulate, we blame those same people who we worshiped. Never asking our selves, what is our role in that and how much. But that often is not the case only with rich and famous, we often treat that same way our neighbors and even relatives.
    We all do it.
    Before i realized my negativity in me, i use to swear a God for every pain or trouble i have experienced.
    How did I deal with my negativity in myself?
    By realizing that my evil does no more harm to anyone else than to myself. The more bad i would think of about someone, i realized that a lot more, i`l repeat A LOT MORE, i was doing to my self. And not only to my self, but also to those around me about whom i care and love the most. That my revenge, even if i would fulfilled my bad desires, would not only do most of damage to me, but would increased evil in general. That not only i but everyone, would lose on multiple fronts. I realized that no matter how much pain or bad i would feel and experienced. I need to withstand, endure, cope with it. And even resist and overcome my own negative desires. Because one day, all that will be gone. That there is a reason for everything and that this life is a school. Not only to endure it, but grow, develop and strive in positive direction. If the pressure is too strong, it is up to me to retreat, to find a way to proceed in a different way. That some fires can not be extinguished with bare hands.
    To welcome one own fears, pains and sufferings. Not in a sense to desire it, but to understand and overcome it. Not even to eradicate them, but learn to live with it. To even look at death it self in a different light. That as much life is a blessing from a God, death also is a blessing. Remember Freddie Mercury lyrics: "Who wants to live for ever"? I know how much it is risky to say this, to those who still do not understand in a healthy way what is said here. Because how subtle and profound is giving trust to God. For materialistic minds. To find meaning in life, as well in death. To understand the faith in resurrection. To have healthy approach, to what is a paradox for pure materialism. Without going in to the opposite, starting to think that killing is good. To learn the balance.
    To understand the words: “Why are you looking for the living One among the dead?"
    Or the words: “Give back to Caesar what is Caesar’s and to God what is God’s.”
    God bless you.

    Very profound speech, thank you Rabbi. Behind all separation and faith we are all connected even when we do not recognize this. Furthermore I sense that the separation that causes the greater pain has its roots in the soul's necessity to fulfill it's path, and I found confirmation in your video. That's why apparently all the esoteric disciplenes indicate to embrace pain rather than deny or fight it back..

    For anyone suffering chronic pain:
    i had wild success after one session of something called "system chiropractice" here in german "craniosacrale osteopathie" which revolves around aligning your spine (not bone cracking like the traditional chiropractice). I had chronic pain from my neck/shoulder down to my left small finger. In the past I had multiple medical operation on my left side like a knee operation and in my youth a whole jaw (upper and lower) operation which all lead to immense pain and those might have caused the muscles and nerves around the spine to contract. I also recovered some touch sense in my jaw which remained numb on the lower left jaw and parts of my neck, after the operation (which was done more than 10 years ago mind you) so there are a lot of systemic benefits/healing after just 1 session. If you haven't tried it out, it might help you a lot.
    Also physical health, sport and a healthy diet are the essential foundation for healing physical and psychological pain/trauma imho.

    It's important to know that the pain makes you the person you are as you age. I honestly can't remember a day I have not known emotional pain. As I grew older along came body pain, I still had to push through. My best advice is hopefully you can see even as a child it will pass. I have always taken on the pain of others. It's ok to have pain. I wish no one had it. But without pain you will never understand how to help others

    Cronic back pain and the psychological pain and stress while collegues thought that I drink or use drugs because I did not sleep at night and came to work looking like a panda bear because of the eye bags. Now I have used opioids for 20 years and the doctors perscribe the meds for month or two at the time. It's under strict controll in our country so people would not get hooked on the meds. It's like little late for me now but the rules don't seem to aknowledge my types of patients. The pain is already in my brain and it would not go off even tho my lower body would be amputated, tried that one when I finally got the spinal disc prolapse. My legs and lower back including reproducing organs were totally numb for few days but the back pain did not ease, then came the additional pain as my spinal cord was marinated with the sour jelly from the disk. Just when I thought that it could not get any worse, I was introduced to burning pain in addition to the sharp edge of pain I had come familiar with.
    I have created a skill of totally concentrating on things I do. I don't hear anything or I don't feel anything, I totally concentrate on anything I do and there is nothing else then. But when I stop the pain is back. Now I don't know which is worse, the psychological pain of having ruined my life while running away the pain to the world of computer games, movies, internet and books. I just run away the pain 24/7 and sleep only few hours a night but my brain allways needed 8 to 12 hours a night.
    About the permanent use or short term use of the meds, too late. You just don't stop opioid medication after 20 years. It's just do I do it legally or illegally, stopping now isn't an option.
    Biggest problem is that there cannot be any break from the rules. Doctors have learned in their study that pain relief meds are for short term use. What if the pain is not short term? I have tried all the anti deppressants let it be tricyclic or SSRI or SRI and many anti psychotics. They make you much more distracted and dizzy than opioids never could and the withdrawal symptoms are worse. You sure don't get addicted to those as they make absolutely awfull feeling that won't go away.
    I have been dead for a short period and came back to life without an ER or ambulance. My GF at the time was and still is a nurse that worked and propably still works at ER. I was dead alright but she was so panicked about not feeling any vitals that she forgot to try resuscitation. I had the classic death experience with a little twist. I went to a beautifull place and met an eagle faced bipedal that had both wings and arms. I guess he was an angel or the one the american indians called Manitou. I heard his voice inside my head as he spoke to me without moving his beak. He stated that I had unfinished business and that I had much work to be done. I just cannot grasp how as I know what I should do, but I cannot stay long enough at this painfull reality. I am here, but like an automaton, like part of me was left to the other side. That experience by the way was before all this horror with different kind of meds and such. Nearly 20 years ago, back the when I was still healthy. I propably somehow manifested all this as I found the things the eagle dude told me too stressfull and impossible for me. Why me?

    • @ark-mark1
      @ark-mark1 Před rokem +1

      The hardships I had in my work, were not because of the opioids. I had same problems before them and even tho I was months and months without them, actually I tested it many times. When I took the pills, people were better and said I'm somehow more clear minded. Like they thought that I was "sober". And when I did not take the pain pills, they asked like what I have taken and made suggestions that I was on illegal drugs or something. Quite nice that regular me is like someone on illegal drugs and me on the perscribed but basicly the same as illegal drugs, heavy opioids, I was clear minded. Go figure. And it was not just work collegues, same goes for my relatives. When i was on double the pain and nervous, they thought I was popping pills, and when I was popping pills, they were like "it's so nice you can be without those drugs". Actually my sister was the favourite all my childhood and I only grew a healthy good relations to my famile when I was popping pills. That really, I mean really sucks.

      @DoloresJNurss Před rokem +1

      Dear soul, please don't add to your suffering by assuming that your pain is some punishment "manifested" for some neglect on your part! That only makes pain worse. You're doing the best you can with what you've got at the moment.
      That said, I wonder if it might be possible to change what you have at the moment. Since your near-death experience seems related to this, let's start there. What can you remember about what the "eagle dude" said? Can you write it down? Maybe when you look at it you might think, "I can't do all that!...and yet...maybe I can do a little piece of it. And maybe I can ask someone else to help me with another little piece of it." And just take it like that. Maybe you're not meant to do the whole thing. Maybe you're just supposed to get it started, or continue what somebody else started. Or maybe you can do the whole thing, but only if you break it up into little pieces and do just a bit at a time. Maybe not--maybe doing even the tiniest bit will fulfill your mission.
      It's a start. What have you got to lose?

    The principal of polarity
    In The Kyballion would
    explain the pleasure ⏪⏩pain dynamic
    “"Everything is dual; everything has poles; everything has its pair of opposites; like and unlike are the same; opposites are identical in nature, but different in degree; extremes meet; all truths are but half-truths; all paradoxes may be reconciled."
    My particular opportunity is orthopedic and spinal , however any pain can be debilitating and it’s not a joke.
    But we can continually learn how to respond to our pain
    we’re on a journey , for however long with.
    I pray others pain is relieved or short in intensity or duration.
    Chronic pain withers if we let it.

    Rabbi Jacobson, are you reading my mind sir?
    I'm 65 years old, my feet are riddled with arthritis in each toe joint.
    I just returned from a 'swift' 3 mile walk.
    My feet? They're soaking in cold water mixed with Lavender Epsom salt.
    aaaaaah, that feels good.

    If you accept that the cost of caring is the possibility to feel pain, are you willing to care? We are limited, we cannot decide on other people's behalf. And that limitation, wanting something that we cannot fulfil ourselves, that is stretching, and stretching is painful. You can choose not to care, but then you lose your sensitivity. But if you want to keep that sensitivity, then you accept that that kind of stretching feels uncomfortable. But it's important, because it can and does direct us to what needs to change, both in our own thinking, but also how to communicate with people in a way that leads us a little bit closer to those noble goals.

    Hi Rabbi Simon, I particularly liked the idea that we are all organizism and how can we hurt each other. Plus the thought that we need to evaluate our lives and if we are in pain then do somthing about it. I have been struggling with painful emotions due to a relationship, and should take your advice. Precontemplatively I will prepare for change. Thank you!

    I really liked the part about gimel existing between pain and pleasure. Yes, one road ultimately leads to pain and the other ultimate pleasure. The Ancient Greeks and Romans got to a point in their historical development where being lazy, comfortable and self-indulgent were thought to be important values in life. Obviously, not everyone thought or acted that way, but they were overwhelmed by the majority who had lost all brains and common sense. Decisions matter even if they don't seem to mean a whole lot at the time.

    Pain is not the one which is physical wise. Physical pain can be face but in spiritual physical pain also just for few hours. But the pain which is given by our family and others through feeling by hurting creating problem it is the pain which goes through our inner SOUL levels. And it can be a death too.AMEN

    Interesting, Hebrew word for pain is "nega" (spelling?), you could say "nega-tive." I wonder how the Hebrew language has left its mark on other languages like English... Very interesting. Very helpful analysis of pain and its purpose. I think this fits well also with Buddhist philosophy, from what I hear. Perhaps other philosophies too. This is why I love to hear from teachers who do not have a base in Christianity or whatever is very familiar with me as I like to know that the truth is out there and its also found in other belief systems. Excellent video, Rabbi Jacobson. :)

    Thank you rabbi Jacobson I I have an old Sefer yetzarah r. Issac Lauria I may need to hear this video again and read my old book I appreciate how you try to get us to look deeper into ourselves
    Is the pain physical based or psychic what purpose does it serve and is it directly related to our missions?😮😮😊

  • @ranchitasweetnsour
    @ranchitasweetnsour Před rokem

    Thank you. The word "pleasure" has a generally negative connotation in English. The word "joy" should be discussed because both pain and pleasure are sensations that need to be transcended. If someone gives their heart to pain and pleasure they will become captive to it, but joy comes from a meaningful place.

    Dopamine modulates the two modes of brain function where were are searching for something new or accepting the current mode of operation. It has little to do with pleasure or pain as an end result or reward. It has everything to do with weighing the high metabolic cost searching for new sources of pleasure or a new way to avoid pain versus the low metabolic cost of upholding the status quo.

  • @Thoughtmanifestkingdom

    Pain and adversity can build, from the top to the bottom to the top, medical intervention would prevent the experience, while experiencing a recent painful perspective, it was unfolding pleasure in other parts of life, i could notice the perplexing situation unfolding, quite a thing to perceive when they both happen and you can see it is one because of the other, then you start to understand a bit more

    I know people think Catholics are crazy for "offering up" our pain--"What would God want with your pain?" they might ask. But it makes a difference to me. I couldn't handle decades of chronic pain any other way. Because useless pain hurts far worse than pain with a purpose, even if that purpose makes no sense to anybody else.
    Since I am also Native American, I imagine my suffering pulling pain off of somebody else ("sucking medicine", it's called) to get it out of their way. Somebody with graver responsibilities than me. Somebody I can free up a bit by helping them to shoulder their burden. Maybe it works, maybe it doesn't, but it can't hurt to try. Like I said, it makes live bearable.
    And I've sometimes seen some things that makes me think it does work. Like the morning I woke up nearly overwhelmed by a craving for tobacco--I could imagine the feeling of nicotine in my body, the flavor of the smoke in my lungs, the feel of the cigarette in my hand so real that several times I brought my hand up to my mouth, only to remember that my hand was empty. The weird thing is, I've never smoked in my life! I later learned, that, unbeknownst to me, a friend of mine had decided to give up smoking, and that was her first, hardest morning facing the day without a cigarette.

    Pain and pleasure aid in learning so much. We learn something to get pleasurevor avoid pain. If not, learning is pointless and boring and very slow or very difficult or both.

    would it not be nice, if we could replace pain with discomfort?
    and discomfort dealt with by stronger intelligence
    understanding what ails us
    avoiding evil
    that our bodies could be God-like
    pass through this world of sin
    and into one of immortality
