The Negative Emotions 07/11/2016 Please see the various works of David R. Hawkins (especially Letting Go) for the best discussion and commentary on this subject. Here we will discuss only a few in less detail. Shame: Shame is fairly simple to elucidate. It is only concealed pride. One feels shame for not doing what they think they should do, or doing what they think they should not. Thus shame is, clearly, a mark of suffering—wanting things to be other than they are. Shame, or any one of these “negative” emotions, is not bad
