Kundalini and Mental Health

My teaching approaches crying as a release of what has remained held, rather than a failure to remain spiritually composed. Do not add another struggle by demanding that every emotion stop immediately. Give yourself rest and ordinary physical care while understanding what is moving through your experience. The central instruction is to meet this vulnerable phase with attention and care, instead of treating emotional expression as something you must suppress to progress.

The Dark Night of the Soul, in my teaching, is a passage into the unknown in which familiar identities and sources of belonging no longer provide a roadmap. Its deeper direction is the movement from a limited sense of self toward consciousness and freedom. I emphasize the Guru's presence because this is not merely an intellectual question about awakening: the person needs guidance while the old life is being challenged and a different way of being is emerging.
