Emotions – sadness, anger and joy

Tears create ripples in the time and space of your inner being

Watch On YouTube Listen to Podcast

Emotions – sadness, anger and joy

Tears shed.

From the medial of the eye (by the bridge of your nose) tears of deep seated sadness release.

From the middle of your eye, tears of bitterness and anger emerge.

From the outer corners tears of pure laughter, joy and sweetness flow.

Every tear represents your inner feelings.

Express, never suppress.

The body always feels lighter for it.

The tears of Sadness

From the medial of the eyes arise Vata tears. Vata is the Dosha in Ayurveda connected to the combination of the elements Ether (Akasha) and Air (Vayu).

Vata tears are said to be astringent and bitter to taste. Cold to the touch and filled with emotions of grief, sadness, loneliness, fear and suppressed emotions. Often scarce or dry in nature due to the inner feelings of vulnerability. Dry tears are a sign that the nervous system is in panic mode.

When we feel nervous, vulnerable or sad we often go so deep within that the tears have no way of being able to fully express themselves out. Vata is like the entering into a black hole from which people become lost within their multitude of thoughts.

The tears of Anger

Pitta is the Ayurvedic Dosha formed from the elements of mainly Fire (Agni) and a smaller percentage of Water (Jal).

These tears are hot in nature and salty and sharp to taste. They may sting the eyes on leaving and create salt stains on pillows and the cheeks of the person.

Tears arising from the middle of the eye are said to relate to emotions of anger, jealousy, frustration, hate and competition.

The tears of anger even burn our own eyes. The science of the body is truly fascinating.

The tears of Joy

From the outer corners Kapha Dosha tears flow. Kapha is made up of mainly Water (Jal) and a smaller percentage of Earth (Prithvi) elements.

These sweet, thick and heavy tears are the result of feeling love and grief. Deep seated emotions arise from Kapha because it is a heavy Dosha.

Tears of compassion flow from these eyes.

There is a joy and freedom in crying that can not be explained but should be experienced by all.

The magic

28th December 2025 at 19:52.

I was ready for bed but a gentle thought asked me to go take photos of all of my Conscious Whispers paintings. This was on my agenda for the following day. I hesitated at first but couldn’t shake the feeling that I should just go and comply to this heart calling.

I began taking photos in order. As I came to the oil painting of Emotions something changed. When I pull the painting from the stack of paintings I notice my hand feels wet. My first thought “which idiot managed to pour water on my painting?”. I wiped the surface clean. I had taken the photo at 20:12 and I place the photo back in its stack.

“Wait a minute”

There is no water on any of the other paintings. I rechecked the painting of Emotions and could still feel the water on my hand. I came to a light pause for just a few seconds before continuing to take photos.

As I am taking photos of the other paintings I am sitting in the silence of the wonder that my painting (or rather God’s painting) had come to life. As much as I wanted to sit and just experience that magic there was another part to me which advised me to keep going and to carry on taking photos.

I thought to myself “how will I ever share this story with anyone?” It was then I realised it was never for anyone else to see or experience it was for me and my heart’s journey.

That’s the power of Emotions.
