Experiencing one's 'Shadow' while exploring the desert of the soul? Anonymous 2017-06-22 11:45:10 Post No. 19188999 [Report]

I would wager that anyone participating in genuine spiritual practice would say it is not all rainbows, balance, and inner peace. In fact I think they'ed say talk like that is a for sure sign your spiritual practice is bogus. Genuine exploration of the soul, the core self, and where it resides may well have a lot of highs, serenity, and unspeakable beauty. They are also trips to the abyss within the self, finding the thresh hold of where we end and where death waits to wipe us away to entropy. Or finding we are also as capable of monstrosity and perversion as any of the worst peers we have studied.

tl:dr If someones pitches a spiritual practice where the path to paradise doesn't run parallel the highway to the infernal abyss, its a safe bet they are self deluding, or following bullshit.

The Abyss, to me, is seen as a final, horrible answer to the question: "What does it all mean?". I do not believe it is our final destination, but a dark truth we all have to come to terms with eventually. Once we do, we will be able to look at ourselves and others as a source of the new and keep entropy at bay for as long as necessary.

Check't

Also, I agree with you OP.
If you walk a path, suddenly that path's opposite also becomes a possibility for you that you might lose yourself to.
