how is negativity part of the spiritual?

Answer 1

Think of it this way: the energies of Life and Death not only depend on each other, they in fact create each other. All that lives must die, and death nourishes new life.

Smaller degrees of negativity are important because they help keep things in balance. When life gets out of control, it pyramids against itself until it begins to create death.

Negativity is a warning. It keeps energy in check, pointing out that there is a problem, an inbalance, or a dysfunction happening. This provides opportunity for correction. If the correction does not occur, the negativity will get stronger - scream a little louder, if you will, until the issue gets addressed or diffused.

Kind of like pain. Pain's function is to say "Ahem, something is not working right here." There is a defect in some people that they can't feel pain. So they wind up causing themselves serious injuries in everyday activities because their bodies don't tell them when to stop or be careful. They could turn a fracture into a deformation or chew their own tongues off.

The best way to hangle negativity is not to reject it, but understand and embrace it.

Answer 2

75% of the Gospel is negative according to 1 Cor. 15:3-4.
1. Christ died - negative
2. for our sins - negative
3. He was buried - negative
4. Then he rose again - positive
It's not a matter of dealing with negative versus positive. The issue is dealing with reality and being able to face it whether it's negative or positive. Often, we can't move in a positive direction until we recognize the negative need to do so.
Some people are so concerned with not being negative that's they'll soon be candidates for the funny farm. The only reason anything in spirituality is positive, is because it defeats the negative - like in Ephesians 2:1-7. Check it out!
