There is also an area or emotional intelligence that we either possess or lack. The disorders of the sixth chakra are just as dramatic. Far more intense than a sour stomach. The shadow here in an unwillingness to look at ourselves, to determine and face our fears. A clouded mind cannot see reality accurately, and brings confusion and deception.
Critical judgment can spring from our unconscious fears.
This is where we reject the counsel of others and fear discipline. A primary fear of the mental area is also the complete fear or denial of the shadow side of ourselves. There is an important factor that is worth noting here. Just as forgiveness originates in the heart, the concept and practice of detachment originates here. Development of both of those abilities as a way of life can ce critical of our overall mental, psychological and even physical health.
