Understanding the Emotional Reaction

After learning about spiritual enlightenment, many people experience an emotional reaction that includes sadness, emptiness, and a sense of purposelessness. It is important to recognize that these emotions are natural and part of the ego's defense mechanism. Allow yourself to feel these emotions without overreacting or exaggerating them. Understand that these initial emotions will dissipate over time as you get more accustomed to the truth of spiritual enlightenment.
