The Incarnated Spiritual Life Is Not an End to Feelings

Jesus also experienced emotional suffering on the cross and in the garden of gasemane. This tells us that the incarnated spiritual life involve living fully, completely with emotions including negative emotions. As long as there is a physical body, there will be physical pain. But you are not the body and not the self,. That realization is liberation. When we see that we are not the self, then suffering loses its hold over us. The power is broken, because the suffering is no longer happening to us.
