Spanking The Inner Child

[Garth]

It appears to me that spanking as a punishment is far more spiritual than physical. In fact I believe spankings are more than just physical and the long term and lasting effects of a spanking has far more to do with your child's feelings rather than the physical pain they experience. Before the Buddha reached a higher level of consciousness He experienced several years of physical pain before he could fully realize God. I would in fact say the same for other self actualized prophets such as Jesus Christ and St. Francis of Assisi. To promote the right attitude when you spank you need only discover and allow the presence of God during the process and ask for his guidance. Your child will respond with love and an inner peace that will endure your relationship for eternity.
