When I read/hear/see something that I have experienced before, it strikes an emotional chord within and I connect with it. I relive it with this new experience - It does not matter at all whether I like it or not.
When there is interest in bringing about behavioural changes, old experiences pose the most interesting challenge. Any amount of superficial disinterest or even ignoring it at that time doesn't fool the sanskars/sub-conscious. It could be the most trivial of interests to the strongest of habits. And lo, it appears in the dreams and reveries or those moments when I am not using the intellect... or even when I see anything remotely related.
To bring about fundamental changes, I need to recognize and accept the current emotional connection and move forward instantly and strongly in the direction of my current choice. A new emotional bond needs to be set in place...
But that's still superficial. At a deeper level, churning on what is really required and following up with powerful yoga is critical to alter the sanskars.
