at the moment of contact the supersaturated dread suddenly crystallizes and can result in fainting. but the actual physical trigger was likely just the initial poke of the needle. a sensation far less jarring than say, stepping on a lego
if the suffering is brought into the light of consciousness. that is you try to *fully* feel the pain of the needle, then there is actually *more* of the physical sensation, it’s more “painful” in some ways
but because there is less shadow there is less dread. you don’t choke as you take in the full sensation.
this “choking” is probably THE primal fear. e.g. the brain coldly and rationally sets this type of warning to MAX volume. fear of drowning, being embarrassed in front of a crowd, cacooned by spider, “choking” in sports, in front of hot girl/boy, etc...
this is imo the real kind of “acceptance” that buddhism refers to. the english word itself strips a lot of activeness and courage from the “taking it all in” and makes it feel helpless-passive.
also clarifies “God helps those who helps themselves” since that logically leads to the cynical sardonic “well... that’s equivalent to no God isn’t it....”
if “God” is whatever arises into (your) reality, then actively helping yourself through some variation of courageously facing the needle brings MORE “something” in reality from the “nothing” courageously facing a situation IS the original Act of Creation
