Spiritually Overwhelmed.

Quote.

When your mind and heart are truly open abundance will flow to you effortlessly and easily.

Question:

Do you think that we can be spiritually overwhelmed? 

Response:

Yes, that is certainly possible and even common at some point in our spiritual journey. When St. Paul had the vision of Jesus, he fell down and was actually blinded for days. There are many of saints and other spiritual aspirants who in one way or another were overwhelmed or incapacitated physically, mentally and emotionally when their divine, unconditioned self was revealed to their small ego self.It is a lot to process and the initial impact can be hard to assimilate right away. But eventually the spiritual experience does get integrated into your life and instead of being overwhelming, it becomes your core identity.

Love,
Deepak

    This is true, for some who may experience this way a psychological overwhelming as CG Jung would say. As for myself a gradual learning and preparation led to a peak experience which did become part of my core identity. Many books and meditative practices have led me to higher and stronger peak experiences. Also, the role of "evil" in Man`s life can create a highly charged atmosphere or energy when the ego boundaries are further broken down and true experiences occur. Yet, careful preparation is necessary for the growth of the " Physic Being" to grow, as Sri Aurobindo`s Integral Yoga has been shown to be a true path to Satori.
