But relaxing into those intense emotions is exactly what Pema Chödrön advises in this clip from her online retreat, Turn Your World Around.

Even the intense and challenging emotions in our lives can be part of our path to waking up. Anger becomes an opportunity, not an obstacle, as we relax into what is and find it workable.

So could i visualise myself as the mahakala version of any energy im struggling with? Fear, self dislike etc...embodying the difficult energy in service of the basic underlying ground (groundlessness) energy?

I faced a series of gradual traumatizing n shocking experiences on wisdom from past 5-7 years .still not recovered.i didnt learnt how to transfer,transform,control the energy. I felt many times there is somebody sitting in forehead have all control on my speech,senses,body organs.during that moments, i only become a viewer.icould twice or thrice only heard it's voice in 5-7 years.
