The Price of Jealousy (KB)

What is the punishment for a jealous person? Living a life with jealousy. When we are jealous, nothing is ever enough—all we feel is lack. Therefore, jealousy is both the cause and the effect of our suffering; the seed of jealousy itself is the consequence. Each day that we live with jealousy, we are in crisis. We feel entitled and cannot break free from these thoughts. Jealousy is its own punishment. Essentially, jealousy is inability to appreciate what we have. When we feel we lack something, we create jealousy. But if we can identify the negative emotions we have, we can work on transforming them into the opposite of what they represent. Using spiritual tools and the power of our own consciousness, we can turn a feeling of lack into a feeling of abundance and, in the process, gain unity with our spirit.
