A Delicate Balance - 133 - A Beautiful Thought

In these unusual times, we might find ourselves feeling intense extremes of emotions. Perhaps we’ve found a way to feel really good most of the time, but when something goes against our expectations, we begin to feel really, really bad.

It might seem like a tightrope walk, trying to monitor and modulate our emotions so we can stay in that space of relaxed contentment or excitement.

But a tightrope walk isn’t the best analogy… that would mean that the stakes were very high – perhaps even life and death.

A better analogy comes from Swami Muktananda, describing the world as a “play of consciousness”. We are free to be at ease, to play and explore in the world, and with our emotions.
