Duncan Trussell on: Being a Spiritual Omnivore, Whether Psychedelics Are a Bridge to the Divine, and How the Gates of Hell Are Locked From the Inside
10% Happier with Dan Harris
Embrace the Duality of Existence
The experience of powerful and dark emotions, symbolized by the music that resonates with themes of loss and despair, highlights a fundamental duality in life. If deep sorrow can pull one inward like a whirlpool, then it stands to reason that an opposing force, representing hope or light, must also exist. This duality suggests that both darkness and beauty are inherent in life's spectrum, possibly reflecting philosophical insights seen in traditions like Shivism, which acknowledges the coexistence of light and dark. However, personal preferences vary; not everyone may find solace or beauty in darkness, and many might seek uplifting narratives through literature or spiritual texts that offer guidance and comfort.
