The knots of the heart are untied when the light of wisdom shines upon the darkness of ignorance.
Mundaka Upanishad
2.2.8
Meaning:
Our mental complexes, fears, and attachments are like tight knots that restrict our joy. These knots are made of false beliefs. Direct spiritual knowledge dissolves these beliefs and sets the soul free.

Daily Application

Whenever you feel a tight emotion like jealousy or anxiety, bring the light of truth to it. Ask: Is this feeling based on reality or a fear of the ego? Truth is the only thing that can untie the heart.
