It is where you come to understand the nature of the spirit, if you do not know emptiness, then you cannot know the joy of the Being. The knack for experiencing the Being causes emptiness. From the emptiness begins the fullness.
On one side of emptiness is misery and on the other side of emptiness is joy.
That is what Buddha said: ” The whole world is misery and what is to be achieved is emptiness.
Doubt and Closeness Doubt cannot come where there is a sense of closeness.
Doubt needs distance to appear. You never doubt something that is dear to you, close to you.
The moment you doubt, it is no longer dear to you; a distance has come. You may doubt yourself, but you do not doubt that which is yours.
Self- doubt is a lack of closeness to oneself. A sense of belonging, closeness, intimacy are all the antidotes for doubt.
– Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
