Dr. Pillai: Why spiritual people are depressed. It is depressing to consider this, but I love the spiritual people. I have known them forever, not only in this lifetime, but in many lifetimes also. Why are they depressed? It’s a very important question. Historically speaking, the spiritual people already go through an exploration of their own Consciousness which involves depression, and eventually they are able to come out of it, at least some of them.
But the whole search is depressive because it is anti-world. It’s very interesting that Osho, when he was alive, someone asked this question, but the question was slightly different. The question was, somebody asked: “Why spiritual people are so poor?”
He said: “It is very simple. Because they are spiritual people; they are not material people.” So here the question is: “Why spiritual people are depressed?”
I can think of one ancient text called “Yoga Vasishta”. It is easily 1,000 years old, or according to some other people, it is timeless and many thousands of years old. There is this Yogi who has been meditating for a long time and he sat in the Himalayas and he was “OM’ing” all of his life. One day he happened to watch some procession going on and then this was a procession that was on the occasion of the king’s birthday. There was music, there was dance, and people were, you know, in a very happy mood.
And then he said to himself, the Yogi,: “This is life. What am I doing here, “OM’ing” all of the time? I have become so depressed.” Then Yoga Vasishta says, “As soon as this thought came into the mind of this Yogi, and because he happened to be a Yogi, he quickly finished his lifetime and then was reborn as the King.” You know, it makes sense.
So, the lesson here is: One has to really develop a proper relationship with the world of Maya, the world of Illusion. Illusion is what is going to give you, you know, joy or happiness. So when deprived of senses, you are likely to go into depression. So I want to talk about this at some length through a [Google] Hangout. The title will be the same: “Why Are Spiritual People Depressed?” Look forward for the announcement. God Bless.

    I became spiritual after I was depressed. I wanted more out of life and that was why I was depressed. Although I can dip back into it when I become completely submerged in it.

    Depression is a sign to change. Figure out why your depressed and change how you define that experience. I used to be alone, but i redefined that feeling to all and one, which i derived from the word all+one, the key is change. Remember, letters are abstract, just like symbols.

    wat I thought is... depression occurs only in the course of spituality. ....... not after attained enlightenment. ..... because the one whos enlightened goes to inner nothingness....in.which he feels absolutely nothing...... . so theres no question of depression or anger. ...its all in the material world.. not in spiritual world...

    Be careful not to disown your negative emotions though. When one arises, YOU will still be aligned. It will only be your mind that isnt. Now is now. Even if you're happy or angry. When one arises, let it come and explore it. Meditate. You might find something through it.

    Interesting how Vasishta was brought up, though a different passage was used- when I am depressed, I often think of how Rama was as well, and that brings me some hope and joy. Though I have yet to fully conquer it! At the same time, it frustrates me, as I see it as a sign of my immaturity, and how far I have to go.

    I didn't know that spiritual people are depressed. Those who are really spiritual vibrate on different level than the energy of depression takes place. It is impossible to stay in those upper high frequencies and be depressed at the same time. Same like it is impossible to be depressed when you are really laughing from your heart.

    I think initially depression is what leads us on the path to spirituality and enough spiritual practice eventually increases our vibration which equals bliss :).

    I know depression is because you are not following your true passion whatever that is for you, they can feel lost. For me this spirituality and enlightenment thing just leaves me giggling the hole way through, there can be struggles but they are just so trivial, at times it can be hard when a lot of changes are going on but hey it doesn't matter.

    Thanks this is some great information that you have to develop a sense of the world and yes most often spiritual people are depressed, I think they see things around them happening opposite to their thoughts and the religion, I think they worry about the world, people and anything that can be relatable, so they have a sense of depressive symptoms

    How speed equals vacancies of the humane nutrition of happenstance inner change and all it's possibilities? Should we even look? If you could only get to any given destination by thinking it. That you had no physical movements just arrivals. How long might it take for you to wish you could experience physically passing through all the geographic's and people that decorate them on the path to destinations? How long before the paths to destinations and all their decorated human aliveness were the peak experiences sought ongoing? I don't swallow my food whole. I chew it. If I bite my ice cream and not lick it? I get brain freeze. 🙏🏻

    Ha. For me there's a flat- ness after being back stage with the tooth fairy. If you look at all with the eyes of the creator your spoiled of the unknowing guest. You cry every day for humanity. Deeply aware of the pretense of personas suffering through their acts. All most everywhere too. What's more depressing then taking that personal? At such a point of consciousness. It's not numbing, it's something else. At least for me, a little bit always. It's kinda like being an unconditional parent of humane continuance is the highest you can be.
