Crasses et Voluptés

 When we really start to let go, what needs to rise to the surface rises to the surface. The mind may not want this material to arise; as I said, many spiritual people unknowingly use their spiritual discipline to suppress their unconscious.

When we stop suppressing, our unconscious starts to come up and reveal itself. What do we do with this unconscious material that rises to the surface? Nothing. We simply allow it to reveal itself. It does not need to be analysed. What arises is, for the most part, unresolved conflict within us: emotions we’ve never allowed ourselves to feel fully, experiences we’ve never allowed ourselves to experience fully, pains we’ve never allowed ourselves to feel fully. All of this arises.

This unresolved material within us yearns to be experienced fully, without being relegated to unconsciousness.
