Do you know why honesty meets dishonesty?
Posted by Elsol
Notes from Naran’s workshop on Bach Flower Remedies, Nov 20th, 2010
We tend to meet people opposite to our nature, so that we continue to maintain our character. For example, a ROCK WATER – who is duty bound, meets CHESTNUT BUD a dishonest person.
Because of principles and honesty a ROCK WATER person misses so many things in life.
Notes from Naran’s talk on Bach Flower Remedies, Feb 21st, 2004
Belief-Ridden Rock Water Person
ROCK WATER is for those talking about social values, and believing that individual beliefs are not important. He will not feel guilty about being a highly principled man either.
As a ROCK WATER person is rigid in his principles and not flexible enough, this will be eventually reflected as joint problems and knee problems.
Example
I have no connection with my daughter who married a lower caste guy. It is an act of self-denial, if he says, “I will not take food from my daughter.” He will totally deny it, even if he makes up with his daughter.
On the other hand, a CHICORY person will say he will not take food only as an emotional black mail, while the ROCK WATER does it to stick to his decision.
Another example
After 10 days of her husband’s death she will shave her head, irrespective of others saying that it’s no longer an appropriate behavior to be followed: a typical ROCK WATER person
Girl blaming husband’s family
Take SWEET CHESTNUT, WILLOW, HOLLY, ROCK WATER and CHESTNUT BUD to manage false accusations. Add PINE if you develop low self-esteem or think it’s all due to your karma.
To know more about such interesting facts about Bach Flower Remedies, please attend the workshop by Naran S Balakumar, at Bangalore, on 14th Dec, 2013. Other details will be provided later.

Don’t Take Words Literally
Mummy commented: “I thought Naran was a very humble man but looks like he is a hypocrite after all!! Typical Indian mentality”: http://wp.me/pwhm3-1q

Go beyond the meaning of the word
You don’t know what you know! Know what you don’t know!!
Every word in every language is sacred.
Go beyond any word “uttered”.
Every word will reveal its hidden message given by the divine at that time, if you mediate on that word.
Outwardly the word’s meaning is different. Inwardly, it has a different objective meaning.
Every word used in life has two purposes:
After reading the comment by Mummy…
I was chanting “Hypocrite” for over 10 minutes.
I opened a dictionary for understanding the meaning beyond this word.
The meaning reminded me of Gita – “He, who restrains his organs of action but continues to indulge in mind brooding over the objects of sense, is considered a man of false conduct” (chapter 3 Sloka 6).
Another facet of Rock Water and Chestnut Bud
After reading this, I have found another facet of Bach flower remedy ROCK WATER and CHESTNUT BUD.
This reveals a new aspect of flower Rock Water.
It is immaterial whether one carries out his desires through (senses) action or not.
Rock water is needed for person who is brooding or indulging in thoughts of vice – sexual thoughts even though outwardly they are not doing the action.
Mental indulgence in sex happens mainly in two phases – old age and adolescence.
For restraining masturbation and looking at pornography pictures take the remedies ROCK WATER and CHESTNUT BUD.
Rock Water can be considered for people who deny themselves any pleasure in actions.
My salutations to Rock water and Chestnut bud!!!
Thank you Mummy for using the “word” Hypocrite on Indians.
Thank you Divine Mother for your grace.
The reason why Chestnut bud is also considered here will be discussed in next communication.
