Dear Friends,
What you fill your mind with determines what flows out - fear gives rise to more fear, and resentment fuels further resentment. The only way to remove negative thoughts is through displacement: by replacing them with healthier, uplifting ones. When deeply internalized, the most powerful and transformative thoughts are spiritual. These sacred words condition the mind and shape the personality, allowing the divine to work through you and bringing forth true, lasting values in life.
A man's life is what his thoughts make of it.
