Synthesized from Source
outcome
"The ego panics at the approach of spiritual energy, fearing its own demise, and in that fear, it tightens, obstructing the natural flow of tears, laughter, and love. Surrender to the piercing arrow of transformation, and watch the blockages dissolve."
According to Osho, emotional blockage arises from the ego’s panic and resistance as spiritual energy begins to melt you—the old identity fears “dying,” clings to control and its small vested interests, and therefore tightens. This fear-based resistance obstructs the natural flow of tears, laughter, and love. When you surrender and cooperate with the piercing “arrow,” the blockage dissolves and transformation unfolds.
Your ego gets scared of changing and holds tight, which blocks your feelings; relax and trust, and your heart will open.
