Remember I mentioned to you earlier that when you are going to make a breakthrough of some kind this gremlin will really be active. Now you will notice it, trying to distract you.

He can and does and most likely will sound like many things for instance he may sound like a sage giving true advice. He may sound like a intellectual giving you a scolding or jabbering at you. He may sound like a friend trying to help you. But don't be fooled by this, or any other example. All of these different faces are your gremlin.

Once you know that you are involved in this idle chatter just tune your focus elsewhere. Then begin to notice that this thing gets bigger, because he wants your attention and when you do not give it to him he gets all upset. He shows you different versions of what he looks like Now you may want to get out the crayons and paper to draw what you see him

Last time we were learning about the villain of intuition called the ego, the chattering monkey, or gremlin it really does not matter what you label it the fact is it remains the same thing no matter what.

The gremlin is very active when, you are making a breakthrough of some kind in your life. You realize the more active it is the bigger the breakthrough into a new consciousness or new way of thinking.

In order to get a hold of this thing we call ego or gremlin we must first be aware of it feel it, feel its presence. In order to accomplish this we must separate ourselves from it.

In separating ourselves it makes it easier to relate to the gremlins airy style. Which makes it sometimes impossible to relate to but you can do it you really can.

One way of doing this is to simply be here now. Make the now be your base from which to observe this gremlin of yours.

By being here now you can see it and observe it and you will be aware of it. Doing some breathing will help you focus on it from this current moment. Breathing always assists in bringing you into the now.

These areas that you will be centering on will be your body, this world in which you live as you experience it, also the world of imagination.

To begin with let us breathe nice even breaths that pulls all the air into ourselves and our lungs.. Be aware of what and how you are feeling when you are breathing. Breathe deep and allow yourself to drift into the world of imagination, going there is normal and you will drift. When you are aware that you are moving from your breathing just bring it back and continue.

This type of breathing that you are doing is something you allow for yourself to do, feel it, be aware of all the feelings

Notice also that your biggest receptor is your skin and that this separates you from the rest of things in life going on around you.

I want you to focus on that for a few minutes, and notice how you feel and what do you feel? You are separate but part of, you are aware of more than your gremlin and now you are in touch with it.

Do you feel it when you breathe? Do you feel how your breath connects you to the now, and how you feel when you are connected to the now?

To understand the gremlin you also must plant yourself firmly in this way of knowing.

And that means being grounded, there are really no rules for this and all it means is that you are really aware of it. One simple way I would suggest is that you keep telling yourself you are being here now. As Baba Ram Das always said be here now.

Do not be thinking of tomorrow or yesterday they are gone or they have not arrived yet. When you think of things like this it becomes easy for the gremlin to seize control of you.

Whether it is this world or the world of imagination being here now is a wonderful place to come home to.

One way that I teach people to become grounded is this way.

Do three deep breaths, and focus on your breath in and out. Centering on your breathing in and out, becoming relaxed and at ease.

Now that the three breaths are done imagine a rope or chord around your foot. It does not matter which one, imagine it going down to the center of the earth to a anchor of some sort. The rope goes down there and ties itself around this anchor and grounds you nice and secure. This makes the process much easier when you are already anchored and secure relaxed and grounded.

When you are relaxed and grounded it is much easier to be aware of what is around you all the sounds and all the energy around you.

This makes the gremlin very uneasy for it wants you to spend no time doing this at all. This gremlin recognizes that this simple tool of noticing it is enough for you to tame him and this is what really frightens him. Now he will really want to distract you.

Take this to heart for this is the true villain of the intuition once this annoyance is taken care of your intuitive knowing will flourish. You will be able to trust yourself and know what you feel is right.

Remember to breath and focus and don't give the gremlin any attention at all.
