I feel like I am going crazy as well. I have been practicing yoga for over 10 years, and have been feeling very strange lately. I have had Karmas repeating themselves in fast motion; i get irritated extremely easy; I can't stand the way things are; I feel like nobody understands me and things seem upside down. All of my fears have come to the forefront all at once and I am starting to doubt everything.
Any advice?

  • breath. there is a great meditative method that I learned which I think applies. as you breath try to focus on emptying you're mind. things will come up and get in the way. as they do, do not get frustrated. this is natural. the idea is to let it all go by as though you were watching a reel of film. if something comes up that you feel strongly about then explore it, briefly. in my practice I find that all things can be traced to there root without the need to linger very long. This is the thing, this is how I feel about it, this is why I feel how I feel,this where these feelings come from. and once you have acknowlaged the feeling and the source of the feeling, move on, let it go. all things in life are opportunities to move closer to our true selves. the ego does not want to be one. for it sees itself as seperate. but the truth is one. fears are the tools of the ego which allow the ego to stay in charge. if all is already one then there truly is nothing at all to fear. all that happens is chosen to happen in the one mind. which is our true reality. address your fears. find there source. if you treat the symtom you can not cure the illness. free yourself from the idea of your karma. karma serves to illuminate. it is not a punishment. the mantra of "om mani padme hum" is the invocation of the buddah of compassion. in order to have compassion we must seek understanding. when we see the root, we know the why of things. this understanding leads to compassion,compassion leads to love, love leads to peace. love and peace kill fear. I hope this helps, namaste.

    Hi,

    My partner and I are both going through this very same thing. In July, he stated that it seems our egos are being put on the chopping block. I think it is very important for more of this topic to be discussed so we can all feel okay with who we are and what is going on. At times I feel as though I am going to climb out of my skin...or my heart is going to bust into many little pieces. My shoulders are up around my ears and I want to hide.

    Thank you
    Sherri

    Fear is flesh based, not spirit based, it is only a condition of the flesh.

    Fear is about loss.

    What could be lost or the potential to lose.

    But when we know the truth, that

    NO THING

    is ever lost,

    ........................................because energy is only transformative,

    Then we know no fear. Only trust.

    The freedom of that knowing...

    is the opposite of darkness

    which only means

    place of not knowing.


    Energy is only transformative!

    Trust!

    Blessings, Spirit Wolf
