| at the same time, you refuse to become aware when you are hurt. This seems paradoxical yet | 73 COMPULSION TO RECREATE AND OVERCOME CHILDHOOD HURTS |
| work. Most important is that you become fully aware of what you really feel. Actually, you are | 73 COMPULSION TO RECREATE AND OVERCOME CHILDHOOD HURTS |
| you really feel. Actually, you are only half aware of it most of the time and resort | 73 COMPULSION TO RECREATE AND OVERCOME CHILDHOOD HURTS |

| The more concise your questions are, the more aware you will become of exactly what your confusion | 74 CONFUSIONS AND HAZY MOTIVATIONS |
| My friends, never forget the importance of becoming aware of your questions concerning a particular complexity, problem | 74 CONFUSIONS AND HAZY MOTIVATIONS |
| more you train yourself in self-observation, the more aware you will become of this truth. For instance | 74 CONFUSIONS AND HAZY MOTIVATIONS |

| takes considerable willpower, self-honesty, and patience to become aware of how you really feel. It is sometimes | 85 DISTORTIONS OF THE INSTINCTS OF SELF-PRESERVATION AND PROCREATION |
| and so easily camouflaged. The less you are aware of it, the greater is the obstruction to | 85 DISTORTIONS OF THE INSTINCTS OF SELF-PRESERVATION AND PROCREATION |

| can you understand their origin and meaning. Becoming aware of your emotions is a gradual process and | 86 THE INSTINCTS OF SELF-PRESERVATION AND PROCREATION IN CONFLICT |
| it. So the first major step in becoming aware of the emotions is an inner permission to | 86 THE INSTINCTS OF SELF-PRESERVATION AND PROCREATION IN CONFLICT |
| wrong, you will prepare the way to become aware of the next layer and its predominant pseudo-solution | 86 THE INSTINCTS OF SELF-PRESERVATION AND PROCREATION IN CONFLICT |

| to grow in you, long before you become aware of it -- provided, of course, you are | 88 RELIGION: TRUE AND FALSE |

| courage and humility to allow yourself to be aware of what you really feel, and to express | 89 EMOTIONAL GROWTH AND ITS FUNCTION |
| in the subconscious. As you learn to become aware of what is really going on in you | 89 EMOTIONAL GROWTH AND ITS FUNCTION |
| steps are taken in the direction of becoming aware of what you feel and expressing it in | 89 EMOTIONAL GROWTH AND ITS FUNCTION |
| security. You have nothing to fear from becoming aware of what is already in you. Looking away | 89 EMOTIONAL GROWTH AND ITS FUNCTION |

| could be without its interference. Once you are aware of such emotional reactions, you will again come | 89 EMOTIONAL GROWTH AND ITS FUNCTION |
| last lecture I discussed the importance of becoming aware of your emotions. I spoke about the neglect | 90 MORALIZING -- DISPROPORTIONATE REACTIONS -- NEEDS |
| by an artificial and intellectual process. Yet, be aware that it does exist in you, expect to | 90 MORALIZING -- DISPROPORTIONATE REACTIONS -- NEEDS |
| sooner or later. You will then become fully aware of it and see how and where in | 90 MORALIZING -- DISPROPORTIONATE REACTIONS -- NEEDS |
| the first steps will be merely to become aware of an inner rigidity and intolerance with yourself | 90 MORALIZING -- DISPROPORTIONATE REACTIONS -- NEEDS |
| first step, as always, must be to become aware of your needs. Your path will help you | 90 MORALIZING -- DISPROPORTIONATE REACTIONS -- NEEDS |

| you proceed in this direction, you will become aware of your needs. Then you will learn to | 90 MORALIZING -- DISPROPORTIONATE REACTIONS -- NEEDS |
| yourself. It is very important that you become aware of your needs. You cannot do so through | 90 MORALIZING -- DISPROPORTIONATE REACTIONS -- NEEDS |
| have learned, for instance, that you can be aware of emotions without having to act on them | 91 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| slightly different way, that you are no longer aware of it and have to make the recognition | 91 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| and reactions. Discipline is also needed to be aware whenever the patterns repeat in variations. The answer | 91 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |

| you can and should do is to become aware of them, while gradually learning to do what | 92 REPRESSED NEEDS - RELINQUISHING BLIND NEEDS - PRIMARY AND SECONDARY REACTIONS |
| how you enslave yourself, you will also become aware of your self-contempt. Unconsciously you had shifted this | 92 REPRESSED NEEDS - RELINQUISHING BLIND NEEDS - PRIMARY AND SECONDARY REACTIONS |

| and development. As you proceed, you will become aware of your escape mechanism and resistance at the | 92 REPRESSED NEEDS - RELINQUISHING BLIND NEEDS - PRIMARY AND SECONDARY REACTIONS |
| first step toward alleviating it is to become aware of exactly what you are confused about, rather | 93 THE LINK BETWEEN THE MAIN IMAGE, REPRESSED NEEDS, AND DEFENSES |
| recognize its presence in order to become fully aware of the damage it does to you. You | 93 THE LINK BETWEEN THE MAIN IMAGE, REPRESSED NEEDS, AND DEFENSES |
| the hurt, so that you are no longer aware of it and experience it only as a | 93 THE LINK BETWEEN THE MAIN IMAGE, REPRESSED NEEDS, AND DEFENSES |
| the approval came, the boy was not consciously aware of something lacking. It was rather an inner | 93 THE LINK BETWEEN THE MAIN IMAGE, REPRESSED NEEDS, AND DEFENSES |
| the same example. Such a person may be aware of his drive for success. But he is | 93 THE LINK BETWEEN THE MAIN IMAGE, REPRESSED NEEDS, AND DEFENSES |
| found your point of relinquishing and are completely aware of the hardened mass of your defense mechanism | 93 THE LINK BETWEEN THE MAIN IMAGE, REPRESSED NEEDS, AND DEFENSES |
| feel them. It will enable you to become aware of them. In due time you will acutely | 93 THE LINK BETWEEN THE MAIN IMAGE, REPRESSED NEEDS, AND DEFENSES |
| path I use my defense mechanism and am aware of it. I try not to act upon | 93 THE LINK BETWEEN THE MAIN IMAGE, REPRESSED NEEDS, AND DEFENSES |
| inkling as yet. This is something one becomes aware of gradually, after a great deal of work | 93 THE LINK BETWEEN THE MAIN IMAGE, REPRESSED NEEDS, AND DEFENSES |
| what I discussed in this lecture. You are aware of a part of your image-claim which is | 93 THE LINK BETWEEN THE MAIN IMAGE, REPRESSED NEEDS, AND DEFENSES |
| To begin with, he would not be fully aware of his need for approval. But let us | 93 THE LINK BETWEEN THE MAIN IMAGE, REPRESSED NEEDS, AND DEFENSES |
| clearer picture about the process we discussed. Become aware of your emotions, your needs, and your defenses | 93 THE LINK BETWEEN THE MAIN IMAGE, REPRESSED NEEDS, AND DEFENSES |
| confusion is greater when you are not clearly aware of these issues. The first step is to | 94 SIN AND NEUROSIS -- UNIFYING THE INNER SPLIT |
| them. At that point you are no longer aware of the real reason why you feel so | 94 SIN AND NEUROSIS -- UNIFYING THE INNER SPLIT |
| go of an attitude of emotional grasping. Be aware that the peace, strength, and self-confidence deriving from | 94 SIN AND NEUROSIS -- UNIFYING THE INNER SPLIT |
| because they are split. If you become sufficiently aware, your confusions and conflicts will surface. Even before | 94 SIN AND NEUROSIS -- UNIFYING THE INNER SPLIT |
| feel a liberation, because you are then fully aware of the problem and willing to own it | 94 SIN AND NEUROSIS -- UNIFYING THE INNER SPLIT |
| -- in you, personally. Only when you become aware of your own untruth, not general untruth, can | 95 SELF-ALIENATION AND THE WAY BACK TO THE REAL SELF |
| you go to great pains not to be aware of this conclusion. You cover it up with | 95 SELF-ALIENATION AND THE WAY BACK TO THE REAL SELF |
