Rush hour skiing on crowded slopes

Rush hour skiing on crowded slopes
On ski slopes, I‘ve heard people say - I don’t know what came over me, or - I lost my confidence and I don’t know why, or - I know what to do, but can’t do it!
Skiing is an instant revelator of how we conduct ourselves in all aspect of our lives, and when we lose confidence on the mountain I believe that it is it because our general confidence is fragile and our self esteem is low even if on the outside everything looks OK.
Val d’Isère has medium to easy runs allowing lower standard skiers to make it down the mountain without having to use lifts. Theses runs make very enjoyable skiing but at rush hour the scenario becomes apocalyptic, the prime time for this apocalypse is at 12.30 and at 4.00PM. It’s the skiing equivalent of rush hour traffic in a big city. “Les Santons” in Val d’Isère is the only blue rated piste down to the village from the top of the Bellevarde summit, and during rush hour this long and sometimes narrow gully has the greatest numbers of overwhelmed bodies than anywhere else on the mountain. For intermediate skiers, the difficulties experienced are equivalent to crossing the Bronx at midnight with a suitcase full of dollars. What looks like an apocalyptic situation is in fact the accurate manifestation of the workings of the law of cause and effect.
Just has nine thousand people downloaded the right thoughts for the fire walk; the rush hour crowd in les Santons subconsciously downloaded thoughts of fear turning the slope into a cesspool of living thought-forms charged with the mental energy of fear. A powerful vortex of fear is now in place. When unsuspecting skiers penetrate this vortex, panic sets in, and confidence disappears leaving the poor fellows stranded in a skiing nightmare that they don’t understand. Sadly, these unsuspecting skiers have learned form “the status quo” to recognise themselves as the only source of mental energy in the universe, and do not question the origin of the fearful thoughts they’re experiencing, and consequently cannot recognise why the skiing has gone to pot. As a result, these people stand as ideal candidates, to absorb by default the negative mental energy that floats above the slope. This is exactly what happens every day to thousands of skiers in les Santons.
The controlling process is the energy of thought that created the vortex that is giving the mental commands to our physical body. It appears that our physical body responds by following the exact terms of the mental command whether be it skiing poorly in les Santons. The law of cause and effect supports the astonishing idea that the body always executes the given mental command to perfection. This stunning information implies that skiers’ problems reside in the mental command of emotions and thoughts and not in the body’s physical execution process per se. This is true. So how do you bring this metaphysical reality into the awareness of people on the slopes?
Money talks, and dollars are what I use to bring forth the thought-awareness in people’s minds. When I take a dollar bill out of my pocket and place it in front of their noses, I get everyone’s attention in a flash as no one has ever seen this happen in ski lessons before. The dollars are used as a metaphor to trace the emotional energy of our thoughts and feelings, and let’s consider that we’re given one hundred dollars of emotional energy (100$) at the top of “les Santons”; what we are interested in, is finding out how those caught in the vortex of fear spend their 100 emotional dollars? What mental commands are they responding to? Looking at their body language we can establish the list of their emotional worries.
The budget is 100$
Emotional worries: cost
Snowboard 45$ (Hit by snowboarder before)
Crowds above 25$ (Nervous in crowds)
Moguls 15$ (Recalls past falls in moguls)
Narrow gully 10$ (never liked gullies)
-------------------------
Total 95$
Left in the budget for skiing: 100$ - 95$ = 5$
With 95$ invested in reactive fears, how can our skiing performance not suffer? How can we even ski at all? How can we as people, not suffer from the mental abuse that we are giving ourselves by remaining the victim of the thoughts we import by default? There will be no mercy for us until we begin to actively take control of our emotional energy. When only seeking to make physical movements, we are only seeking to control the least powerful aspect of our being which is the physical. Having a thought is just as much an action as a physical movement we make. Our mental self is much more powerful then our physical self. Either we think and act for ourselves, or we let the ambient vortex of thoughts of fear play with our being as it has always done. The choice is ours.
