the Aaahh

Gharnapatee

(a communal experiential approach to communication and self-realization)

The Aaahh seeks to establish small independent communities of caring people, living and sharing as an extended family where the Communal flowing Culture overrides verbal divorcing nuances.

The Aaahh is mostly suitable for those of us who feel that their communication and relationships with family and friends, takes priority.

Other than having to worry about basic material necessities, our relationships with family and friends become an absolute priority, for our psychological and social health.

The main requirement here is a willingness to work in a community environment, which are our family and friends who we know or wish to know more.  

~~~

The Aaahh association is an open family for communication and dialogue. However like any family with its own inner dynamics,  in one of our main practices,  we explore and emphasize the nonverbal and gestured expressions, to see what role they play in our communications as well as in conflict resolution.

~~~

Our eyes speak, the expression on our face speaks, the tone and texture of our voice speaks, our gestures speak and our body speaks. All these, in a split second, can speak to us, without words, and tell us many things when we know how to read such obvious unspoken signals

When we become familiar with each other

and a big crack in communication comes about or we want to emotionally  highlight this very moment, we in the Aaahh dynamic, are able to

let go of words and the merely

'talking about the situation'.

We then approach the issue more directly through

the expression of our feelings, 

using up to 3 understandable words, only if so desired.

We negotiate, highlight and enhance our feelings.

We reach an on the spot feeling conclusion, which many of us are in need of, especially when we are vague, confused or too speedy etc. Such a "feeling stopping point" can vastly differ from an intellectually rational ending one.

With practices and our group culture, we cultivate nurturing

'Now impressions' and the ripples they create.

These "Now impressions" can counteract or lessen a powerful

sucking up of  unwanted 'Now impressions',

coming from within or without.

A key rational decision is often accompanied with a feeling closing expressed at once, in non-articulate verbal manners or ways. This expression, in turn, triggers our imagination and a chain of associations. If we can have such an input into this rational split second event, and put  aside our intellect for a while, we are able to direct these nano course events, ushering in an on the spot new vibe. This new different vibe can at once change the course in our interactions. Now we can veer away from our machine like thinking/feeling mind and be more in our Primal thinking/feeling mind = in the Aaahh Quantum experiential psychology. This "psychology" has to do more with feelings of key nano-events. These, for sensitive aware people, are vital to Balance and Imbalance in our moment-to-moment communications and interactions.

In these rather idiosyncratic exchanges, our Community Culture and vibe serve as the moderator.

The Aaahh is a hands on experiential psychology of actions. What a paradox! all this sense-making grammatical verbosity!...to try and explain such childlike simple things like an honest smile, touch, eye contact, a hug etc...

Our Objective measure is our Community, our group vibe and its flexible culture, not centered around individualism or confrontation and the culture of words.

Most of us live in our language, its explanation, and the emotions it creates. At what point in our communications do our words and our language start to dominate and block us from a 'Now Moment of Better Connecting?'  At what point can we let go of words and language when they fail us and switch over to other modes of more effective communication?

This is what the Aaahh is about.

It requires an intuitive knowledge that can be cultivated through practices, meditation and our group environment.  When we learn to read each other and tune in  to this vibe, we can create a less hierarchical, adversarial and more sharing extended family not based on outer rigid rules of Yes-No or mostly on material foundations.

Research shows that 85% of our communication is subconscious. Our subconscious mind often acts and thinks independently of what "I may think, want or do etc".(please find research information gathered on the Internet).

We in the Aaahh have a flexible communication model, which helps us interact in our daily life and additionally, to resolve uncertainty and conflict, at any moment, when the need arises.

For sensitive people who feelingly know each other it is very important to recognize where we stand emotionally and share "in this very moment of communicating or relating". Such a sharing will take care of our strong fixations as individual beings and bond us more as a community.

For us to feel more in "this very relational Now moment" we let go of our intellect, concepts, definitions and ordinary words for as long as needed. When we feel that synchronicity lacks we fall back on our childlike emotional intelligence and our unique instantaneous expressions.

We create a new 'chain of associations and responses so we can contribute to this "now relational moment".

At any moment we allow for the intellect to be suspended, and for these emotional faces, signs and punctuations to be colored by the group unifying culture, and be expressed, as long as necessary, to sense the underlying commonality. Among the whole wish-wash, meaningful bonding will surface.

We can bypass our reasoning language to experience a genuine smile, eye contact, a gesture, a tone of voice etc.

In these complex uncertain times of information overload, such basic expressions are essential in the Aaahh framework for communication, in conflict resolution and in the creative individual and community artistic expressions.

This Very " Nano Quantum Moment" affects the reality of the next moment. The Aaahh is concerned with such key blink of an eye, always forming realities and the making of our "subconscious decisions". They are vital to communications between our members, and to the shaping of community

irrespective of beliefs, practices or ideologies.

These instant atomic level interactions and objectives require a very different, from the ordinary, general "thinking/talking over" approach. When, "this very moment" is allowed suitable expression, we don't have a need to go to our past or future. This very synchronicity  Aaahh moment, when effectively met, can take care of all our psychological needs.

However, for those of us absorbed too much in our individuality, we will need to do practices and meditations until we can pick up more on our community vibe and then we can resort to them only when a need arises.  The Aaahh psychology is realized through its practices.

~~~

Most of our intellectual and emotional capital is conditioned by our past. By merely talking and repeating pressing issues, it is hard to bring about a change. In the Aaahh framework, when sensitive issues arise, we at once can accompany these with spontaneous non-verbal expressions, using a maximum of only three intelligible words. Such acts become the emotional undertones of our verbal interactions. 

Some of these expressions can fit in an elastic scale of psychological markers that guide communication between our members and shape communal culture and spirit. As well, these authentic childlike expressions can substitute or enhance verbal interactions. On this primal instinctual level people cannot help but be transparent in interactions and relationships. This leads us to more unity. Such unity basically does not need words. It can more easily accommodate diversity in this shrinking world of ours. In these complex, materialistic sophisticated days, it is easier to hide from ourselves, and others, behind our 'objectivity' words and rigid principles…

The above practice is supported and linked to 2 main additional practices. (please see The 3 main practices). As we adopt these and become familiar with emotional undertones and aware of our non-verbal communications, any scattering and fragmenting intellectual knowledge will decrease.

The practices and meditations they provided help us individually as well as help us create cohesive Communities. They form the science of the Aaahh dynamics and its culture, where words and language play a secondary role in quality communications.  Please, try this out with your friends...in your normal talking together with friends, mix in the simple childlike interactions and some of your kinky behaviors. Such personalized responses can often bring about a positive change instead of merely talking about the situation. As well, please, have a look at our 3 main practices. Thanks.
