Short spoken excerpt (likely from a YouTube talk) by Eckhart Tolle describing the dynamic he calls the 'match made in hell': when two people's pain-bodies resonate, they create recurring drama that feeds those pain-bodies. He explains that the drama feeds on emotional reactivity and can last from an hour to a few days; some individuals have especially heavy or chronically active pain-bodies.
A match made in hell is the match. When two pain bodies get on well together, which means they. They love their drama. And there are couples who go through that periodically and they. They can't do anything about it. They don't know what it is. And they always make up again afterwards. And then it's okay now, but then it's. It has to start again. So it needs. When the drama happens, the pain body is feeding. And when this happens, how long it lasts varies. It could be an hour, it could be a day, it could be two days. It feeds on the reaction. It loves the reactivity. Some people have such heavy pain bodies that these are exceptional cases. I don't know what the percentage of humans is who have that that is totally dormant.
