OVERCOME THAT WHICH IS NEGATIVE

Develop the power of resistance. Maintain the ideal of pure divine love and active service. Generate positive counter-currents of energy to combat the downward negative currents of desire. Ever remain in a positive state.
Overcome all negative thoughts by entertaining positive thoughts. Rise from impurity, impotence and faintness of heart. Be bold. Be always cheerful. Cultivate divine qualities such as mercy, forgiveness, peace, tolerance and patience. Destroy the negative qualities of arrogance, egoism, pride, lust and anger. You are then bound to attain the highest knowledge and bliss.
