END OF ORIENTATION WEEK!

*PHEW!*
(although that word is not in the dictionary, it pretty much describes how I feel right now)

WHAT A DAY! More freaky ideas via video lectures by Dhyan Vimal the psychotic self proclaimed psychiatrist.


Honestly, we've had enough of him. So all of us are glad that we've finally finished our torture sessions with him(via media player) and his cronnies(same bullshit---just live), but I'll just blog a liiiiil bit on it just to make sure everyone gets their fair share of bullshit (xD).

Today's session was on the topic of "oneness"-meaning being ONE with the the "new reality" you want to put yourself in, in order to achieve it.

And in order to achieve THAT?

* Now this is where it all starts to get confusing. Most of us(my class) took a while to digest the following crap talk, or just pretended to understand it by faking smiles and nodding their heads "puppily". (NEW WORD!)*

Back, in order to achieve "oneness", he/she must practice the following steps-

1.Be "present"-in a state of mind/body-as in getting into a state of hyper awareness/alertness until one is fully aware that one exists on planet Earth as a physical entity with a mind ( but curiously, no emotions, as we will see later). A great way to achieve this is by saying "breeeeatheeeee" and taking a deep breath. It works, but only makes you aware of the BO in the room XD.

2. Use the A-B-C steps.
First, picture youself as the "A" by becoming "present".
Then, picture the problems/issues/subjects/obstacles/things/your beliefs that are hindering you from achieving "oneness"- that you want to change, as the "B".
Next, set a "space" in between "A" and "B". Make that space "C".
Now view the "A-B-C" as a whole. Picture in your mind that you are viewing these 3 things from afar, as an omniscient presence.

3.Done steps 1 and 2? Good.
Now comes the ridiculous part.
Try to solve the problem/issue "B" by "seeing things as they are".
Before I give examples... notice that people usually tend to respond to certain images(graphic or otherwise) instinctively and reactively. For example money="I want!", shit="yuck!", darkness="omg i'm scared", guitar="ROCK AND ROLL!", dead man=*eiiw..*.

According to our "facilitator"-we must avoid this in order to achieve "oneness".

Like for instance, seeing shit=faeces/result of natural bodily process, guitar=6 strings attached to a wood, money=subjective, graphicly squashed up victim of car accident= dead man, dark room=room without light.

So basicly... ignoring our emotions lah? Become robots lah? Retarded facilitator.

and he gave us some really weird examples... "if I cut my hand with a knife, I see that there is a wound, but although we realise that there is pain and blood coming from the wound, we must ignore the pain because we see it as a 'cut'." then he added, "but at the same time, we must be AWARE that the wound is still there."

Gawd... what is wrong with him ><'''

PS: Happy CNY Holidays Peoples!!!!! Muakz!

  2. I hope they put the feb/march intake students through the same kind of shit.
    It would only be fair.

    That whoever guy must be a Very Big Retard.
    We all looked away at the accident picture not because we're CONDITIONED to look away, taught to do so, it's because we know what it is and it's sick to see people die like that. My sister can actually FEEL physical pain when she see pictures like that.
    Babies wouldn't look away because they don't even know what it is. We look away because we're human.
    Bleh, stupid people. Thank goodness I'd ever have to meet them again.

  3. Heh..Good point.

    Which proves, he's not even qualified to be a retard. Perhaps even less than human? He thinks he sounds experienced and wise because of the so called "big words" he uses like "determiner"...bla bla bla...worse part is, he thinks using the F-word makes him more macho. Stupid emotionless sexist...

    PS: I'd rather not have my friend Leon go through this experience :)

  4. No he HAS to! It'll only be fair! Plus the whole experience made us bond together better as a class - we united in insulting him, haha.

    And determiner isn't a big word. It's a lame word. And his jokes are either stupid, not funny, or disgusting. Eek!
