The outside-attuned consciousness, however, is almost dependent upon exterior stimuli for its sense of life and enjoyment. I do not want to oversimplify, yet such a type of consciousness is far more interested in exploring the nature of itself as it relates to exterior conditions or circumstances. It becomes, relatively now, opaque to subjective personal conditions, since it has no secure exterior framework against which the inner condition can be judged.

Physically, for example, you are in much better physical condition than Joe Bumbalo, but he is a prime example, to you, of the exteriorized consciousness—and while on the one hand you envy his shoveling the walk, you are to some degree underneath all that, somewhat contemptuous—somewhat, now; I do not want to speak too strongly, but simply help you become aware of some feelings you might have submerged because you think they are not nice.

That is background. Now give us a break, and we will continue.

Now, I want to stress that you must not emphasize your feelings that you are at odds with the world. To some extent or another each person feels at odds with the cultural environment, or worse, with their most intimate companions. You cannot expect to be involved in creative activity of an important sort, and at the same time see through the eyes of others.

Give us a moment.... I do not want anything to impede this not new important work of progress. Now, walking would not be particularly constructive for you. The ommm exercises, or simply some quiet yoga breathing exercises, would however, and either would relieve the feelings in the chest considerably on the physical level.
