    Dear RM and all,

    Thank you. One of the great joys of this Work is that,
    for every issue that is resolved, another takes its
    place. It certainly keeps life interesting!

    I like this method a lot although, as you mention, it
    is probably more suited to forceful emotions. One
    concern I have is that one may become reliant on the
    technique. The constant use of this exercise to
    eliminate negative emotions may not help the aspirant
    to deal with the underlying issues causing these
    emotions to arise. However, I can see a good use being
    made from this if one encounters, say, a hostile
    situation and uses this technique to "rip" out the
    anger from other people. Have you tried this
    particular application?

    The similarities between this technique and some of
    the exercises in IIH are loud and clear!

    After writing my last post, I meditated further on
    this issue. The clear message was that we, as
    students, must always bear in mind that
    self-transformation is an iterative process. It is not
    simply a case of creating the Soul Mirror in Step 1
    and working through the major and then minor character
    flaws. As Rawn notes in his commentary to Step 1 of
    IIH, the Soul Mirror work should be periodically
    updated. However, what one should find is that, in
    creating the second Soul Mirror, the flaws that are
    considered the most major (and requiring immediate
    attention) are less pervasive than the most major
    issues identified in the first Soul Mirror exercise.
    Subsequent Soul Mirror exercises should highlight
    progressively less fundamental flaws (although the
    number of flaws themselves may not change, and may
    indeed increase!).

    Kindest regards

    Dan
