Dealing with the dark side

Carl Jung said, “Everyone carries a shadow, and the less it is embodied in the individual’s conscious life, the blacker and denser it is.”

Suddenly, the dark side shows up. Killed a small lizard today.

Yoda says that fear is the only darkness. Ultimately it is fear that killed the lizard. Irrational fear rules much of your decision and worries. And the more you allow it to run your life, the more evil you will commit. Evil actions are mainly based on fear. Much of it being irrational.

Yet, this darkness lives in the mind. Accompanying the mind like a persistent shadow. Causing heaviness. Actions committed based on fear result in darkening the  mind. Filling it with secret guilt and regrets.Taking you deeper into its grasp. Seek refuge. Remember God. The source of all. Untouched by darkness.
