Why Emotions Overwhelm You — A Yogic Look at the Inner Mechanics
A participant once asked, “Why do emotions sometimes become so overwhelming that they completely take over me?”
First, let us get one thing straight — emotion is not your problem.
If emotion were the problem, being alive itself would be a serious mistake. Fortunately, existence is far more intelligent than that.
What overwhelms you is not emotion, but the speed and distortion of inner movement compared to the size of your awareness. When awareness is small, even a small surge of energy feels unbearable. When awareness is expansive, even intense emotions pass like a breeze.
Yoga is not about calming yourself down.
Yoga is about becoming large enough.
Arishadvarga: Not Emotions, But Inner Distortions
In yogic science, the human system is understood with great precision. Certain fundamental inner tendencies are identified as the Arishadvarga — the six inner enemies:
Kāma (compulsive desire), Krodha (compulsive anger), Lobha (compulsive greed), Moha (delusion), Mada (intoxication of identity), and Mātsarya (jealousy).
These are not moral failures, and they are not emotions.
They are distortions in the movement of prana caused by misidentification.
Yoga does not brand you as good or bad.
Yoga simply asks: Do you know how this system works, or are you running it blindly?
Kāma: The First Mental Distortion
Let us look at Kāma, because this is where most people get completely confused.
Kāma is shaped by memory, imagination, and comparison.
Memory gives you the past.
Imagination projects the future.
Comparison measures you against others.
When these three start looping compulsively, you enter what yoga calls samsara.
Please understand this clearly — samsara does not begin with marriage.
Marriage may intensify it, yes, but samsara begins much earlier.
Long before you fell in love, long before you got married, you were already cycling through memory, imagination, and comparison. You were already looping. The only difference is — at that time, the pranic charge was low, so you did not call it “overwhelming emotion.”
You were already in samsara when you were secretly admiring the neighborhood girl.
You just didn’t lose sleep over it — that’s all.
Samsara simply means cyclical movement.
Not a social institution. Not a wedding ceremony.
It is a psychological and energetic loop.
When Kāma intensifies, this loop accelerates.
Then longing turns into obsession, imagination becomes compulsion, and prana floods the system. Now you say, “I am overwhelmed.”
Nothing new has happened.
Only the speed has increased.
When Arishadvarga Take the Driver’s Seat
When any of the Arishadvarga dominate, prana begins to move faster than awareness can handle.
Kāma intensifies into obsession and emotional flooding.
Krodha spikes into heat, shaking, and loss of speech clarity.
Moha creates confusion, fear, and paralysis.
Mada makes identity fragile, leading to rage or collapse.
At this point, intelligence steps aside and reaction takes over.
This is what people describe as “being taken over by emotion.”
In yogic terms, this is simply loss of inner command.
Why Yoga Never Fights the Arishadvarga
Now comes the most important part.
Yoga never tells you to suppress desire, kill anger, or destroy ego.
That kind of thinking comes from fear, not understanding.
The Arishadvarga are not enemies to be destroyed.
They are raw energies distorted by unconsciousness.
If you fight them, they become stronger.
If you suppress them, they go underground.
If you indulge them, they bind you further.
Yoga chooses the intelligent option — transformation.
What Happens When Awareness Is Stable
When awareness is stable and prana is balanced, something beautiful happens.
Kāma does not disappear — it becomes creative longing.
Krodha refines into clarity and decisive force.
Lobha transforms into intensity and commitment.
Moha dissolves into clear perception.
Mada matures into dignity.
Mātsarya sharpens into discernment.
Nothing is rejected.
Nothing is glorified.
Everything is upgraded.
This is why yoga is a science, not a belief system.
So What Is Overwhelming Emotion, Really?
Let us say this in one clean sentence:
Overwhelming emotion is what you experience when Arishadvarga move prana faster than your awareness can hold.
The emotion is not attacking you.
Life is not punishing you.
You are simply not present enough.
It is like sitting in a powerful vehicle without knowing where the brakes are.
The Yogic Solution: Expansion, Not Control
Yoga does not offer emotional management.
It offers inner mastery.
By stabilizing the body, regulating the breath, refining perception, and expanding awareness, the human system becomes capable of holding intense energies without distortion.
Then emotions no longer overwhelm you.
They enrich you.
Life does not become dull —
it becomes intensely alive and effortlessly free.
That is not philosophy.
That is yoga.
A Yogic and Quantum View of Human Health — with Parth
Energy Distortions Creating Disorders
A participant once asked Parth,
“If everything is energy, then why does the body fall sick?”
Parth smiled and said, “That question is already half the answer.”
Because when you see life only as flesh and chemistry, disease looks like an accident.
When you see life as energy and intelligence, disease reveals itself as a process.
Before the body collapses, energy collapses.
Before energy collapses, awareness collapses.
From Energy to Disorder: Where It All Begins
Modern quantum science is slowly arriving at a realization yogic sciences have held for millennia — the human body is not a solid structure. It is a dynamic quantum field of energy and information.
Science uses terms like:
Quantum coherence
Biofield dynamics
Electromagnetic communication
Cellular information networks
Yoga uses one word: prana.
When prana flows coherently, the body experiences health.
When prana is distorted, the body begins to express disorder.
This is not spirituality.
This is inner mechanics.
Energy Distortion Is the First Disorder
Most people think disorder begins in the body.
Parth says, “No — that is the last place it shows up.”
Disorder begins as:
incoherent energy movement
repetitive mental loops
unconscious emotional surges
In yogic terms, this is samskara disturbing prana.
In quantum terms, it is loss of coherence in the human energy field.
Once coherence is lost, intelligence leaks out of the system.
Arishadvarga: The Roots of Energetic Distortion
Yogic science identified six fundamental distortions long ago — the Arishadvarga.
They are not psychological flaws.
They are energetic distortions with biological consequences.
When these forces dominate, prana moves compulsively, not consciously.
Kāma: Memory, Imagination, and Comparison
Parth explains Kāma very simply:
Kāma is desire shaped by memory, imagination, and comparison.
Memory pulls the past.
Imagination projects the future.
Comparison keeps you restless in the present.
This looping is what yoga calls samsara.
Please understand this clearly —
you do not enter samsara when you get married.
You were already looping long before that.
Marriage may intensify the loop, but you were already cycling through memories, imagination, and comparison — even before you fell in love with your neighborhood girl. You just did not feel overwhelmed then. That is all.
In quantum language, this is repetitive information cycling without renewal.
When this loop intensifies, prana distorts.
First emotion shakes you.
Then hormones follow.
Then organs comply.
Krodha, Moha, and Mada: When Energy Loses Intelligence
When Krodha (anger) dominates, energy becomes explosive. Heat rises, breath shortens, neural coherence drops. Speech loses clarity.
When Moha (delusion) dominates, perception collapses. Fear appears without cause. The nervous system freezes.
When Mada (identity intoxication) dominates, the system becomes fragile. Any challenge feels like a threat — leading to rage or withdrawal.
Parth reminds us, “This is not moral failure. This is misalignment.”
Overwhelming Emotion Is a Quantum Mismatch
Parth puts it very plainly:
Overwhelming emotion is what you experience when energy moves faster than awareness can hold.
In yogic terms:
Prana exceeds buddhi.
In quantum terms:
Energy becomes incoherent due to lack of conscious observation.
Awareness is not passive.
Awareness is the stabilizing principle.
How Energy Distortions Become Disease
If distortion continues unchecked:
prana disrupts the nervous system
nervous imbalance alters hormones
hormonal imbalance stresses organs
organs lose rhythm and memory
What you call disease is simply distortion that has settled into form.
Quantum medicine now talks about:
biofield disruption
cellular memory
loss of intercellular communication
Yoga has always called this samskara lodged in the body.
Why Suppression Makes Disorders Chronic
Modern systems often try to suppress:
emotion
symptoms
behavior
Parth says, “Suppression does not heal — it postpones.”
What you suppress does not disappear.
It migrates — deeper into the system.
That is why unresolved emotional energy often returns as chronic illness.
Transformation, Not Control
Yoga never teaches control.
Control creates tension. Tension breeds disorder.
Yoga teaches expansion of awareness.
When awareness is stable:
Kāma becomes creative longing
Krodha becomes clarity and force
Lobha becomes intensity
Moha dissolves into knowing
Mada matures into dignity
Mātsarya sharpens into discernment
Same energy.
Higher intelligence.
Health Is Coherence
Health is not the absence of disease.
Health is coherence.
Quantum coherence.
Energetic coherence.
Existential coherence.
When coherence is restored, the body knows how to heal.
When awareness is established, disorder cannot sustain itself.
This is not belief.
This is alignment with the laws of existence.
Final Word from Parth
Your body is not broken.
Your emotions are not enemies.
Your energy is not against you.
You simply need to restore intelligence to the system.
When energy flows consciously, disorder has nowhere to stay.
That is yoga.
That is true medicine.
