Most people are still completely identified with the incessant stream of mind, of compulsive thinking, most of it repetitive and pointless. There is no “I” apart from their thought processes and the emotions that go with them. This is the meaning of being spiritually unconscious. When told that there is a voice in their head that never stops speaking, they say, “What voice?” or angrily deny it, which of course is the voice, is the thinker, is the unobserved mind. It could almost be looked upon as an entity that has taken possession of them. Some people never forget the first tie they disidentified from their thoughts and thus briefly experienced the shift in identity from being the content of their mind to being the awareness in the background. For others it happens in such a subtle way they hardly notice it, or they just notice an influx of joy or inner peace without knowing the reason. THE VOICE IN THE HEAD
two weeks with the Pose method also increased the eccentric work of the ankles. This, in theory, increases risk of Achilles tendon injuries and calf muscle problems. Ross Tucker PhD, a friend and Pose Level I certi ed instructor who was involved with this study, helped supervise an attempted follow-up study. Runners were split into supervised and unsupervised groups, and the objective was to observe retention of the Pose technique. The study couldn't be nished because almost every runner in the unobserved group (all of whom had been trained in the Pose method) and about half of the supervised runners (who'd been trained by Romanov himself) developed Achilles tendon and calf muscle problems. In an e-mail to me, Ross concluded: "In some, the technique might stick and work. But in many others, the technique will stick and destroy their calves, ankles, and tendons." The moral of the story? Take it slow. Make changing your running a gradual process and stop if it hurts.
