The Art of Letting Go

    Letting go things , persons and places on a perfect note which you love the most   and become integral part of you is an Art. However letting go of strong emotions , feelings and desires which captivated you is a bigger Art and requires accomplished practice. How to let go these feelings which becomes fabric of life on a harmonious note without any acrimony,fight,bad mouth ,bad intention and so on !!


    This cannot be done at once .It needs practice and learning of previous such unsuccessful exercises of letting go. It also needs blessings of the place, environment and above all motivation from entire body ,mind and heart to become successful.

    One should also know this that letting go is akin to death. Both requires moving on to a place of surrender to what is , and allowing for a transition to something new.
Failure to do so will trap you forever in the land of " no more and not yet". Letting go and moving on are two separate but linked processes.

    Letting go is more than a decision , it is  behavior ,it is about surrendering the dreams of what you imagined and embracing the fullness of current reality.


    Failure to move beyond denial makes acceptance next to impossible. Anger impedes letting go,frequent anger is actually to avoid the pain. You have to face the emotion , not to transfer to others  through anger. It is easier to be mad and sad. Extend compassion toward yourself. Forgive to eliminate bitterness. Acceptance is the final stage of letting go. No longer even long for what was, rather seeing how loss is transformed and creating new possibilities. 


Knowing what made you hooked will help in letting go. Letting go is closure and not an end. Letting go is emotional and spiritual release. Closure takes practice. Letting go means not to indulge in thoughts , memories,fantasies,or wishes. Time and distance are best friends on letting go. Time is not only enough but distance in three ways, emotional distance,physical distance and mental distance.
