Exercises to Explore Your Inner Wall

To explore your walls, you can use the following exercise. Bring to memory a particularly unpleasant situation, either one you are struggling with currently or an unresolved one from the past. Begin to experience what that situation felt like, picture it in your mind, hear the words or sounds associated with that experience. Find within that experience the fear it contains. Fear is the feeling of being separated. As you are able to bring yourself back into that state of fear, begin to perceive also a wall of fear. Feel it, taste it, see it, smell it. What is its texture, its color. Is it light or dark, sharp or hard? What is it made of? Become the wall. What does it think, say, see, feel? What does this portion of your consciousness believe about reality?

Heyoan has given the following explanation of the wall:

“We will go back to the idea of the wall that you yourself have fashioned in order to maintain what you considered at the time of fashioning an inner equilibrium, but that actually maintains an outer disequilibrium, as in a dike, or in locks, where one level of water is higher than the other. So you may see yourself behind this wall and a great flood, a great pressure of power of some form on the outside, with you inside. Your wall then makes up for that which you feel you are lacking on the inner level. In other words there is this great power coming towards you and you think you have less power than it has. Then you make a wall to protect you as, when in the medieval ages, the walls of the castles were being stormed. You who are inside the wall must first explore the essence of this wall, for it is fashioned of you. It is fashioned of your essence and it is full of statements, statements of what you must do in order to remain safe. Now, the wonderful point about all of this is that this wall is fashioned of your essence and contains power within it. That power can be transformed and redistributed as a foundation for the power of the inner self. Or it can be seen as a stairway into the inner self where that power already exists. That is another way of saying it, depending upon which metaphor suits you best. And so you sit behind your wall of safety, and at the same time you sit in your wall of safety, because you are that wall. It is, then, the bridge of consciousness between what you as the wall say and what you as the inner person who is being protected say.
