Don't act on negative thoughts

Satnaam

Ok,  pls don't act on negative feelings. It's good you noticed it. Then look inside and see you want something,  don't get it,  then blame others.

Every single hope,  want and expectation in the human mind is fulfilled by one of the 330 million devi devtas.  That's how we worship them, by keeping in wants. And unfulfilled wants keep us in delusion, disappointment and depression.

Changing your thinking changes your world.  When we are running late we just think,  thanks God you gave us more time to do simran. Try and change every negative the mind gives you into a positive.  We see that's what baba ji does all the time.

Satnaam simran in the morning and evening,  satnaam thoughts,  words and deeds all day long.  Then Satnaam comes to you. Pure can only come to pure.

Practise forgiveness all day long,  keep forgiving those who cause anger inside you. When we forgive others God also forgives us for our sins (of getting angry).

Think about why we find it hard to forgive? Because we want them to suffer, like they made us suffer.  "you hurt me, I hate you".  And by forgiving our ego thinks, "you hurt me and I let you get away with it."   but then we can't actually do much in terms of revenge ,  so we just end up burning ourself, and it makes not one drop of difference to them if we are hating them or not. So when we forgive others, it's actually to make our mind let go of them. And what about justice? Trust in God,  his law of karma ensures every last action is repaid in full.   Only ego wants to hold on, the soul doesn't have nothing but kindness and Compassion for all. Like a baby doesn't hate anyone or hold grudges. Or swear at a baby and it makes no difference to them. We get older and start making rules about what is right and wrong, and then act in certain ways as expected by society and our five thieves. Then we are trapped.  So forgiveness is to free the angry fist that has got our soul by the throat. It's more for us than for the others.

So it comes back to how are we going to live in peace with our own mind. Which at the end if the day is the only one with us 24/7 tormenting us.  Even husband, inlaws, kids etc are only with us for a few hours of the day. So our aim is to live in peace with our own mind.   And what takes away the peace? Five thieves steal our amrit.  So we have to turn every negative into a positive.  If anger comes in,  ego will try and fool you into the story that it's husbands fault or inlaws fault.  But dont listen to ego, look inside and right now catch the thief giving you those thoughts... Hey its anger.  So anger is causing you pain right now, not husband or inlaws... Heck they aren't even in the bus with you right now, so it's just your thoughts, not the other person.   So turn anger thoughts into forgiveness thoughts.  I forgive you,  God bless you,  goodbye. Start doing simran, satnaam satnaam  satnaam.

Then we have to repeat the process everytime anger thoughts come in.  And they will come alot because we have made it into a habit to indulge those thoughts over the years. So it's going to take some time to undo them. It gets easier, then one day they just stop.

Baba ji maharaj spent every day for seven years picking the negative thoughts and throwing them out of their mind.  That was their bhagti.  We have to do the same in our meditation.

Now they say a negative thought even if it tries to come, it can't come in.  Their mind is just pure light now, no mind.

God gives us a gift and we are supposed to share it with others. It uplifts them and us at the same time. So you have gift of singing, use it.  Of you don't then your goodness rots away. Har bisarath Tere gun galia.
