Of the Buddhist Heart Sutra text and about room for feelings

 "  Was it yesterday or the day before yesterday, I got lots of some painful influencies from someone who said that she had written the HeartSutra years and years ago, but it seemed that she had gotten overly much influencies from readers' impressions of the text, which shoukd have been as impressilbs on the front cover of the text, like for people with such and such educational background it appears obscure, but many like ghe idea of having such a text. So the influencies are not meant to the oerson who wrote it, not at all. Someone reading another person's wise or otherwise fine view in an interesting subject, anyway clasdifies it as jyst a text, while for the writer it was some insight to practical life, some well working side in practical life described at a general level suited for many. So the impressions of others are not suited as influencies to the writer. And neither are beginners ghe right group for wise experienced people having written about something impirtant. 

If one thunks of the subject of writing about how to get space for feelings, I think the ways of getting room for feelings varies according to the individyal and situation. If such is difficult, it is often when termed selfishness, and also work-oriented feelings tend to get room, if tge environment shares such a view to working life. But all do not share working lufe as a value, and those often accept feelings of relief, comfortabiluty, etc, i.e. feelings of people too ill to work that day, and many socially oriented people accept mainly social lufe of a so ill person that one is mistly resting and if someone comes to help in chores like bringing food to the refrigerator, it is a valued central thing in life and one does not have strenght for anything much more. 

Room for feelings often also relates to them being seen as giving valuable info about ways of doing, of the situation and choices of goals, etc. So a different choice of valyes often taken away the room for listening to feelings, to which the rule "Live and let others live" often helps a lot, even though the result is often like passing by instead of like love at all, but many can like such ways of living. 

Wishing well for the world, teaches one to have many things well for the world at the same time, which is good for health, for having many things well in one's life, and feelings are an important part of one's perception ability in such things. See in my blog www.EasyHealing.info i.e. CuringGuesses.BlogSpot.com the text "As if of a naturally healthy family". 

Getting room for feelings in the sense of feeling more, wider, in a somewhat music like way, often is a questiln of needing to have enough skills, like walking in an uneven clumsy terrain there comes a step up and a step down and sideways steps of different kinds, pieces of path with different speeds and the pleasantness and sighrs along the path may vary too, or like school has several areas of life, their skilks taught. So for a wider underTanding and a wider experience of life, one needs pissibilitues for such variations, of shifting emphazies from one area of life to another, and likewuse a wider objective picture of the world with things in practical life recognised right and so in a wider picture more things to feel about, and similarly of life skills at large, like the traditional chores in a traditional environment may have many well working sides which connect to make pleasant traditional living.
