Emotional Cleansing occurs when a Connection Experience leads to the instant falling away of anger, enmity, and hatred. Emotional Cleansing is a Connection Outcome that often occurs during an intense Connection Event.

Notes

The Spirit of the Lord had touched them, and all their enmity and hatred had vanished like the dew before the rising sun.[1]

...but it seems to me the Lord just took...something like a barnacle-scraper...and scraped my heart all out clean, and I haven't felt anything wront there since![2]

God does not allow us to drink of this water of perfect contemplation whenever we like: the choice is not ours; this Divine union is something quite supernatural, given that it may cleanse the soul and leave it pure and free from the mud and misery in which it has been plunged because of its sins.[3]
