There is a verse in the Ashtavakra Gita. This awareness of the truth makes an eloquent, clever, and energetic man dumb, stupid, and lazy, and therefore, truth is avoided by those whose aim is pleasure. The verse seems negative on the surface, but it has a highly transformative meaning. What does it mean? When you receive spiritual grace, realize your being, and operate from the inner essence, all your excessive egoic qualities are transformed into light.
For example, your eloquence transforms into silence, and your mind and world say you have become dumb.
Your cleverness transforms into wisdom, and your mind and world say you have become stupid. Your constant striving, your hustle transform into effortless action, and your mind and world say you have become lazy.
The spiritual person may appear useless to the world and the mind, but they have become more useful than ever before. Spiritual awakening is the greatest service they can offer to the world. They have discovered a deep and abiding joy transcending the world's fleeting pleasures. This joy does not come with sorrow or require constant striving.
The spiritual person is no longer a slave to worldly desires, but he already realized the master within that created the whole universe. When you become conscious, you transform your dark qualities like anger, envy, and jealousy into life-saving tools too. How?
Whenever you feel that you have these dark qualities within you, go consciously into these dark emotions, feeling them fully in your inner body. Just go deeper into the pain and feel those emotions within yourself. While feeling those emotions, don't let it turn them into dysfunctional thoughts. Be wary of the mind's inclination to fabricate a story, justifying these emotions with you as the helpless victim.
Now, go deeper into your being and transcend those emotions, thoughts, and even your inner body. Go into the nothingness of your being. Once you penetrate those dark qualities or emotions like this, by fully going inside, you will not resist or suppress them. Because whatever you resist, you always become that.
If you deny your anger, you will diminish your calmness. Because You persist in being angry, right? True or not? Let's say if you deny your fear, you diminish your courage because you persist in being fearful because you're denying it. If you deny your greed, you diminish your generosity because you persist in being greedy because you don't accept that I am being greedy.
If you deny your suffering, you diminish your healing because you persist in suffering. You don't see suffering as suffering. If you deny your confusion, that you are in confusion, you diminish your clarity because you persist in being confused. We think we resist certain states because they are there, but actually, they are there because we resist them.
And in this way, you face your dark side and transform it into light.
