Being Awareness in the Face of Emotion

A man compliments Rupert’s new haircut and asks about the Tantric approach to emotion. Rupert replies that we cannot bring a feeling closer, as it is already closer than close. When we feel uncomfortable emotions like sadness, we often reject or avoid them. Instead, Rupert advises welcoming and embracing these feelings. In the Tantric approach, we stand as awareness in the face of emotion; we devour it.
