Sadhguru

Is it wrong to feel intense grief, and how do I grieve without getting stuck in it?

Shiva's intense grief, without entanglement

When his wife was burned alive, Shiva's grief was very intense, and if he had not grieved he would not be considered divine. Yet he was not entangled in it.

Even trees bleed in their own way when grief happens to them, and animals grieve. Do you think Shiva is less than that? His grief is very intense, but he is not entangled in it.
