Is the spiritual advice to ‘let it go’ a dangerous act of denial?

DSCF9133A There is a spiritual argument among some psychics, clairvoyants and healers when it comes to the pains of life to ‘let it go’ because none of it really matters, because none of it really exists.


If none of it really exists, then what about love?

What do we do with love?

What is the spiritualist’s position on love?

Love is part of this world, the world that some argue does not exist. Does love, therefore, not exist?

I guess, however, that spiritualists will argue that, yes, love does exist.

But how can it when it belongs in a world where they argue ‘nothing exists’.


If some gurus and healers counsel us to ignore pain but not to ignore love then doesn’t that lead to enormous internal conflict? Both love and pain co-exist.  They co-exist in the realm of the physical; they co-exist in the physical body and they co-exist in the mind. You cannot simply ignore one because it is a mind-trick yet not ignore the other (which, if you follow some Vipassana thinking must also be a mind-trick). In the realm of healing on the level of the physical body, you cannot let go of one yet hold onto the other. This leads to bodily confusion and further pain.


So, rather than letting one go and embracing the other, why not embrace both? Instead of letting-go pain, why not love it instead? Instead of counseling people to ‘let it go’ because ‘it doesn’t exist’, why don’t spiritualists counsel everyone to love their pain and to admit that this world does exist.


Love is the bridge between both worlds: between the world of heaven and the world of earth.


Earthlings use it to get to god.

From earth it opens the doors to heaven.

But, at the same time, godlings should use it to get to earth instead of stating from their perspective that ‘it (earth) doesn’t exist’ in a dangerous  act of denial.


If this world, where we find ourselves now, does not exist, then love must similarly not exist. Yet it does.

And that reveals the flaw in the ‘let it go’ argument.
