Positive Thinking

No event can occur without having a positive, definite cause behind it.

Ananda is a state of supreme bliss, the joy of pure conscious existence and energy, as opposed to a life controlled by external sensations and emotions, which are subject to the whims of life and matter, and their positive and negative reactions, such as joy and sorrow, pleasure and pain.

Dear brother, do not lose your mental balance due to affection, and be convinced in your heart that the outcome will be positive.

The king, filled with good thoughts, will become deeply devoted to me.

The mind should be withdrawn from evil thoughts and always directed towards good thoughts.

Through persistent hopefulness, firm resolution, and the grace of the great god, the fruits of one's actions are obtained without delay.

A person with a pure mind, who has purified their heart, can eliminate the positive and negative effects of their actions and attain eternal bliss through the enlightenment of their inner spirit.

Yudhishthira always said, after letting go of anger and arrogance, 'Give to each what they deserve,' and he only heard positive words.

If the work were done from a spiritual height, it might lead to a sublimation or uplifting, or the creation of a new structure, forced by the sheer power of the influence from above. However, the lower being might not accept this change as its own, and it would not be a complete growth or an integral evolution, but rather a partial and imposed formation, affecting or liberating some parts of the being while suppressing or leaving others as they were.

All these opinions have been held by the human mind, and in all, there has been profit, even if we regard them as errors, because errors open doors to truth by destroying opposite errors and preparing an element for a new constructive hypothesis.

The Absolute's positives are the various ways it reveals itself to our consciousness. The negatives, in turn, bring forth the entirety of its absolute positivity, negating any limitation to the initial statements.

The ancient sages spoke of Brahman in both negative and positive terms. They said it is not this or that, but also that it is this, that, and all, because they understood that limiting it to either positive or negative definitions would lead to a loss of its true nature.

We mistakenly think we've succeeded in defining the indefinable when we've only described it through exclusive negation, even though we're compelled to conceive of it as a supreme positive and the cause of all positives.

The problem then changes entirely. The question is no longer how did God create suffering and evil for His creatures, but how did the sole and infinite Existence-Consciousness-Bliss allow into itself that which is not bliss, its positive negation.

His idea of the ultimate state is one where everything positive is absolute, without any negative aspects. This includes knowledge without error, bliss without suffering, power without limitation, and a complete sense of being without any defects.

If we dedicate even a small portion of our wealth and time to cultivating positive thoughts, we can create a new civilization right now.

How can we build a new civilization? By creating a new and positive thought-force.

The mind's only impurity is base thoughts and desires. Protect your good thoughts like a vigilant watchman guarding a treasure.

Send a steady stream of positive thoughts and goodwill to all of creation.

Be vigilant and only allow good thoughts to enter your mind.
