Letting go is a huge topic n can be spoken in length for hours. So let’s just touch upon the after-effects of holding on/ not letting go.
One of the major causes of suffering is holding on n not letting go. We want to hold on to everything, and control everything, be it emotions, relationships or material things. We hold on to anger, vengeance, pain, sorrow, fear, wealth, greed, lust, ego, pride, addictions & whatnot. All this that we hold on to not only rots us from inside makes us negative, gives us worries n sickness… but also mirrors everything that we hold on to.
A simple relatable example – Even the most favourite food that we eat, we dump it the next morning. Imagine our plight if we hold on to our favourite food inside us…we will miserably🥴 suffer from acidity, gastric issue, heaviness n of course constipation. We take everything possible to give us relief.
😳imagine our body & plight when food is not digested nor dumped.. will be painful n miserable right…. now imagine our lives with all that we hold on to for years without taking a dump(letting go). Yes OMG🥴🤦, that my friend is how we get negativity n sickness in our lives, life gets stagnant n this also is one of the major causes of suffering not only through our lives but also in death.
That’s why Dumping – Letting go is very important. That’s why every scripture’s advice – to let go n live light, live in the now n not to carry forward.❤️Beautiful thing about letting go is… it makes a place for new bliss🌈 in life. it’s only when our bowl is empty… it’s refilled🌈.
……. the joy of letting go.
