In an acute catastrophic situation, the mind tries to cling to that which is familiar. It tries escapism, distractions, tranquilizers, drugs and alcohol, and various other ways of trying to ameliorate the situation rather than face it directly and work through it.
The essence of a catastrophic situation is total surrender to the discovery of that which is greater than the personal self. The experiencing through completely of a catastrophe brings us into a connection and a realization that there is something within ourselves that has the power to sustain, no matter how catastrophic the experience appears to be. As a result, we come out on the other side of it as a greater person with the awareness that there is something within, that there is a Presence, a quality, or an aspect of life within that has the power to sustain us through the most seemingly impossible situations.
Beautifully timed! I also liked his quote from Surrender about world events/anger. His work has been my main source of beingness throughout this situation.
The best approach to handle catastrophic situations. Thank you Susan. Gush of relief being experienced. And, of course, thank you Dr.Hawkins.:)))

Iâm on Chapter 8 starting to read â Handling Major Crisisâ!
So grateful for your reference to this book. Glad I had it in my library!
Thank you Doc and Susan! That chapter literally saved my life and opened the door to a great inner discovery. It opened me to a Power greater than myself that can (and always is and was) handle whatever life brings.
That’s wonderful to hear, Alex!
Thank you for the reference Susan. We are all so blessed to have our faith to guide us through these stormy waters and Doc’s wisdom to strengthen us. Sending Love from Downunder
Doc taught me Deo loves to hear us laughing in awkward spots.
