Reflection of Integrity class

First I want to thank to my group members and facilitators who motivates me to share my personal life without any hesitation.

In those two days I have learnt about different stages of fear. I got to know my fear and also got different strategies and the solution to overcome it.

I want to share my AHA moment is before we started our session we all were in that sense that we all know each other very well because since from 2 years the batch is same but when session started we got to know that no still there are things which  we don’t know.

I liked the movie also because from that I got to know to how fear is doing great part in your life so you should overcome your fear.

After love class  I heard that Integrity class will be boring but I really appreciate to our facilitators that I have enjoyed the session the most.

Both the sessions were interesting and helpful for me. We had a session where we all shared our fears, we came to know about the stages of fear. In sessions, I realized that fear is always either what happened yesterday or what may happen tomorrow. So our suffering is always about that which does not exist. To keep in mind the following quote, I have started to face my fears of level 1.

“अगर आज हम अपने डर पर काबू नहीं पा लेते हैं , तो कल यही डर हम पर काबू पा लेगा “

Both the sessions were interesting and helpful. We learn about 3 stages of fear. Fear is in ourselves we have to over come to it which will help us only to live life with full of happiness. The movie we watched ( My sister’s keeper) was very nice and we were able to connect it to attended sessions. It is helpful for personal and professional life.

We had a session where we all shared our fears with the whole team and our facilitators really helped us be more forthcoming with our feelings.

As part of engagements, I introspected and realised various fears I have.

Of all my fears, I decided to start facing my level 1 fears like fear of darkness, fear of ghosts and spirits.

By realising the fact that these are my fears of mind, I have formed few strategies to face these fears.

WIll share once the first few experiments are successful.

I appreciate the group members and our facilitators for helping each other share feelings and be comfortable with each other. We were very close and there was no hesitation in sharing our feelings. Listening to all and suggestions given by all has made me strong.

Thanks to my ‘Integrity’ group for the change (though a bit now) that I can see in myself.

The most effective learning for me was to never judge a person immediately.

Going to the Civil hospital has taught me to understand the problems people face whether a mother, child or relatives.

It was an amazing experience. Sessions were really helpful to us for personal life as well as in professional life. You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face.

Underneath your fears lie great opportunities. Because when you start doing the things that scare you the most, tearing down the invisible barriers that separate you from the good life, you become the person you’ve always dreamed about in your mind.

That means finding your courage is a life-changing decision. Fear will always be around to tell you what you can’t do—it’s up to you to face your fears, and tell yourself that you can.

Integrity is a universal trait that does influence the principles and values one carries. Just like previous 2 batches, I did receive feedback (or rather I should say negative impression) that Integrity is the most boring workshop but I have a different opinion. I spoke about my failure and shared my concern and now I am determined to address my concern. I don’t have a clue how and what I am going to do and thus I am looking forward to attending more sessions.

I learnt about different kind of fears – levels and I too acknowledged mine. Like the film that was shown to us – Sister’s keeper -I could relate to this movie to a great extent and probably the other participants as well…and there were many takeaways from the movie but the most I liked was the end dialogue – which I interpreted as that sometimes we don’t know why we have to face sadness or failure or why we are hurt but its completely OK if we are not able to find answers to such questions…life goes on…time heals all wounds…we change…transform…become better and stronger!!

Hearing to my co-participants stories/concerns/fears/failures gave me an unspoken strength…we in our most sad moment ask ‘why me’…but when we hear others sharing similar stories you feel that I am not alone…

I hope we keep sharing and inspire each other to fight hard till we overcome our fears and concerns.

Ahhh!!! That day of the year when you end with Love class and move to Integrity. The butterflies flying in your stomach with a feeling of inquiry about what will it all be. With the impressions left by others on our minds, a little sense of fear vanishes after knowing of the names of the facilitators.

Then the day arrives to attend the first 2 days of Integrity. By then, some things are understood: the meaning of Integrity, what it takes to practice Integrity.

To me Integrity was truthfulness, evaluating one self and becoming stronger by fighting out your weaknesses/fears to gain spiritual growth.

When the curtains were raised, the sessions of two days were found to be planned on similar lines. The facilitators asked us to introduce ourselves, which was done by each of us using the methods in which we were strong. They made us understood the meaning of Integrity and Fear.

The actual action then began. The facilitators asked us to identify the fear within us and grade it into 1 of the 3 levels explained by them to allow us to understand How to Handle it.

Once as we neared towards the end of second day, I was pretty sure that, I can Handle It, the workshop which looked much like a NARCO test from the reviews shared and the first half of day 1.

 

Vibrant smiles, twinkling eyes, sweet personalities but little do we realise carry untold stories…

“But we already know each other, we just have to introduce ourselves to you both.” were the words uttered by the participants of Integrity Theta to Sanjana ma’am and Ayman ma’am. To our surprise we could not have been farther from the truth. We learned more about our peers and ourselves in these past two days then we did in the past two years.

Our fears gag us to a degree that we become paralysed.

Well, it’s just the beginning…
