Mark, it's the *absolutism* of statements like this that
I'm commenting on. What you say in the last sentence
above is SIMPLY NOT TRUE.
I and many of my friends have had severe emotional pain
and trauma just fucking GO AWAY as a result of spiritual
sadhana that did not require us to focus on it or "go
through it." Leave some room in your pronouncements for
other possibilities, eh? :-)
I am *NOT* saying that I don't think dealing with emotional
issues is not a good thing for some people if they swing
that way. But is it the ONLY way such issues can be
resolved? No way.
