Resonant
Friendship Procedure
1.
How should you proceed after you have selected
a person for resonant friendship, or another
person has approached you through an email?
The
person approached should either accept or
reject the proposal and convey the same to
the person proposing through email.
On
acceptance, both resonant friends should exchange
a few emails to get a preliminary feel of
the person before meeting in person.
2.
Where should the resonant friends meet in person
the first time?
At
a public place with a prime concern for safety.
They should get the second preliminary feel
of the person before getting closer to each
other.
3.
Once confidence has been built between the two,
how should they proceed?
They
should start by sitting in front of each other
and looking straight into each other's eyes.
4.
Who should speak first?
Anybody.
If by chance both start speaking simultaneously,
anyone of the two should stop and listen.
5.
What should they speak?
Any
and everything that comes to mind without
changing, distorting, or hiding even a single
bit of it. Given below is a trivial example
of a part of a conversation between two resonant
friends John and Mary:
John:
Your tightly pressed upper lip gives me a
feeling you may ditch any person any time.
Mary:
(laughs) I am hurt.
John:
I didn't mean hurting.
Mary:
I believe.
John:
I am grateful you believed me.
Mary:
That is the basic condition of our friendship.
John:
I feel like kissing you.
Mary:
I am put off by that mole on your cheek.
John:
Did I offend you?
Mary:
No. Are you hurt?
John:
Yes.
Mary:
How can I help you?
John:
You already did by asking about my being hurt.
Mary:
I really felt as if I myself got hurt.
John:
I love you.
Mary:
I love your mole.
John:
Really?
Mary:
Yes, really now.
This
is only a trivial example for the feel of
it but the same spirit should continue every
moment throughout the meeting. The bottom
line is that every thought or feeling has
to be expressed AS IT IS.
6.
What should the other person do while one speaks?
The
other person should keep looking into the
first person's eyes and listen to him/her
without judgment, i.e., receiving WHAT IT
IS without either being emotionally hurt or
getting flattered.
7.
How should the conversation proceed?
Both
should, normally, speak turnwise. If sometime
a very pressing thought comes to the mind
of one who is listening at the moment, he/she
should give a signal by raising his/her finger
and the person speaking should stop for listening,
if possible.
8.
What about the silences in between the conversation?
Both
should keep looking into each other's eyes.
9.
To what extent can the graph of building resonance
take the two friends?
10.
Should the resonance friends decide on the boundaries
not to be crossed during the course of resonance
being built?
It
totally depends on the two and their situations.
