Just when you feel all hope is gone, things will get better when morning comes at last. What the proverb beautifully relates is that when you have reached your lowest ebb in a downward spiral of negativity, dawn arrives and brings light and hope to you.&nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The dark night of the soul is just what the proverb describes: an existential crisis that drags you to the ground. A situation so severe and evidently hopeless that it makes you question everything you ever thought to know. Not only that, but it also takes you all your interest in the joys this material world has to offer. Your senses are deprived\u2014if not deadened\u2014for a certain period of time.&nbsp;Don&#8217;t lose your faith during this time. Instead, seek God.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><!--more--><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">But during this period of mental stillness and \u201cself-inflicted\u201d sensory deprivation, you will come to a really important conclusion. You will realize what is really important to you in your life. A realization so profound and powerful that it will change the way you regard your situation for the rest of your life. I, for instance, began to realize that friendship and family were more important to me than anything else in the world. Sports cars were just a pile of nicely fashioned junk; likewise, the technological tools were are playing around in this modern era. Just a scrapheap.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The dark night of the soul is the point where your life has reached a fork in the road with only two directions to choose from.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">And just as one has to go through a really tough period in life until things become better, an individual will experience their <strong>darkest hour<\/strong> of the soul, which will transform their life forever. In my opinion, it will change your life for the better in hindsight to wisdom, insight and a broader understanding of life in general. One only has to have the courage, so to speak, to see <a title=\"When a door closes a window opens\" href=\"https:\/\/www.planetofsuccess.com\/blog\/2012\/when-a-door-closes-a-window-opens\/\">the windows that open when a door closes<\/a>. Just as one can <a title=\"Stop to worry about failing\" href=\"https:\/\/www.planetofsuccess.com\/blog\/2011\/stop-worrying-about-failure\/\">learn from failures<\/a> there is a lot to gain from the dark night of the soul, even though it is a very rough and painful period of time that makes one feel like all hope is lost.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Everything happens for a reason.<\/span><\/em><br \/>\n<em><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Something good comes out of everything that happens.<\/span><\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">And this is exactly what happens during the dark night of the soul, even though in a somewhat tougher and more painful manner.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The Dark Night of the Soul<\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">But all hope is not lost, far from it! In fact, a far more powerful and wiser individual arises out of such a situation.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">In a sense, the dark night of the soul is necessary for an individual\u2019s growth and development. It is the integral part of a life\u2019s journey that turns everything upside down and leaves only the things behind that are important for the voyager and their progress. Without such an experience there would be no room for growth. There is no progress without struggle, as they say.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">If you are experiencing your personal <a title=\"Eckart Tolle on the Dark Night of the Soul\" href=\"http:\/\/www.eckharttolle.com\/newsletter\/october-2011\">dark night of the soul<\/a> at this moment in time, it is important that you do not give up! Don\u2019t allow it to consume your hope for a better future.&nbsp;Don&#8217;t allow it to destroy your faith. Don\u2019t let it take all your courage. Try to stay as calm as possible and see how things unfold. The three primordial questions about existence might arise, maybe for the first time in your life. &#8220;<em>Who am I? Where did I come from? And where am I going?&#8221;<\/em> If you have the courage to pursue these questions you will find the right answers that will provide you a new hope. Hint: seek J e s u s.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Whatever is happening to you at this moment will pass eventually, making room for something new and positive. Remind yourself that something good evolves out of everything bad that happens to you. With this kind of powerful mindset, nothing will be able to stand in your way. Have the courage to seek for the new opportunities that will arise as you are experiencing your darkest hour.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">In more technical terms, the dark night of the soul is the process that quietens the mind and brings the soul to a peaceful serenity. And one day you will look back at what you\u2019ve gone through, how it affected you and how it profoundly changed your whole life.&nbsp;Then you know it was worth it.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Have you already experienced your dark night of the soul?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The famous proverb \u201cIt\u2019s always darkest before the dawn,\u201d emphasizes that in the darkest hour of the night\u2013symbolical for situations when all hope feels lost\u2013darkness has reached its peak, from which it constantly gets brighter until the light starts to illuminate the world again.
