| levels, it is possible temporarily to accept the negative as a passing stage, in the understanding that | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| acceptance one ceases the struggle. One accepts the negative without finality and with an objective, non-indulgent attitude | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| The total being cannot ever totally want the negative. Pain and suffering are always the result of | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| hate, isolation and fear, or the positive and negative directions. The outer layers of personality must suffer | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| and awareness of where they themselves desire the negative. Now this is an exceedingly important new phase | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| be or not to be aware of his negative desires. There are, of course, degrees of awareness | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| the awareness of a deliberate desire for the negative exists, the more you will be in control | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| not aware of its deliberate desire for the negative, the suffering must be infinitely greater than any | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| doubt, and hopelessness. The moment awareness of the negative desire has been attained through the painstaking struggle | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| before you are capable of giving up the negative desires, because you do not yet understand the | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| made these initial inroads to awareness of the negative desires must be careful to extend this awareness | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| aware, to some extent at least, of a negative desire and nevertheless ignore that this negative desire | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| a negative desire and nevertheless ignore that this negative desire is the immediate cause of any number | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| who have caught the first glimpses of your negative desires have gained a new strength and a | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| can be when you no longer have the negative desires, even though you do not yet know | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| know why and how you insist on the negative desires and why you harbor them in the | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| should try their very best to find their negative desires. On the surface the majority of people | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| in themselves from the mechanism that wishes the negative result. The work on this path continues with | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| this path continues with becoming aware of deliberate negative desires, or of the avoidance of positive results | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| your psyche, you see how the positive and negative attitudes are self-perpetuating. Take, for example, any healthy | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| dynamism. The principle is exactly the same in negative situations. The self-perpetuating forces, in this instance, can | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| material realms. The personality level that wants the negative and pursues that direction creates a new world | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| of attitudes, thoughts and feelings -- create this negative world. There are many variations, degrees, and possibilities | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| and possibilities, according to the strength of the negative desires, the awareness of both positive and negative | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| negative desires, the awareness of both positive and negative desires, and the balance between the two. You | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| experience, or even your direct desire for the negative. You will see that this difference constitutes another | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| world you live in manifests the positive, the negative, and presents a combination of the two. All | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| within yourself. Where you are relatively free from negative desires, it will be fairly simple and easy | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| your fellow creatures, you must be in the negative world, in a self-perpetuating negativity that you sow | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| a similar fight within. Both the positive and negative directions are attached to the pleasure principle. It | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| makes it so difficult to give up the negative direction and change. The positively and negatively oriented | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| and the resulting tension between the positive and negative pulls. If it were possible, for the sake | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| risky and painful and so reverts to the negative and the denial. Since this is so painful | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| the denial. Since this is so painful, the negative pleasure principle attaches itself to it, making the | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| more bearable. A will then revel in the negative situation. In the meantime, the pain of isolation | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| meeting. At times A's positive direction meets B's negative one; at other times they are reversed; at | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| they are reversed; at still other times, both negative currents are out, both withdraw or antagonize one | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| temporarily venture into the positive, but since the negative principle still exists in them, the positive position | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| so divided, so defensive and apprehensive that these negative emotions about the positive direction produce negative results | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| these negative emotions about the positive direction produce negative results sooner or later. These are then attributed | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| emotions about it. It is inevitable that the negative direction must again take over after such periods | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| after such periods of mutual positiveness, until the negative, destructive, and denying side is fully understood and | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| denying side is fully understood and eliminated. The negative, the denying and destructive direction would not be | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| the still existing, because not yet fully recognized, negative pleasure principle attaches itself to your understanding of | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| the other you build up until the old negative pleasure principle has reappeared in a new guise | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| and freedom because you again indulge in the negative pleasure principle. This is an example of how | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| in another person, I immediately bring out the negative, the hostility and rage, and I am blinded | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| and rage, and I am blinded by these negative feelings. I cannot see anything positive or understand | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| the thought, I want to give up the negative. I want my pleasure to be attached to | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| and why do you believe that wanting the negative is safer for you than wanting the positive | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| allowed yourself to be taken over by the negative force. Therefore it does not occur to you | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| up the pleasure that is attached to a negative situation. What has weakened you was that you | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| you was that you lost awareness of your negative desires. You had repressed, denied, and hidden them | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| with yourself. Had you been aware of the negative desires, you would not have been able to | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| swept away by the self-perpetuating force of your negative desires, which you have consciously ignored until now | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| spirit, cannot take command consciously to fulfill your negative desires. This can happen only with positive desires | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| because of the gnawing guilt -- inevitable when negative desires exist whether or not one is aware | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| of others. It is exactly because of the negative direction of your desires that you do allow | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| I usually concentrate too much on studying the negative aspects, centered on the father image. I have | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| Then you will be aware of your main negative desires concerning your identity as a man. QUESTIONER | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| you always know this. Every admission of something negative that exists in you contributes more toward the | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| - - the ensuing chain reactions must be negative, confining, destructive and disagreeable. Let us take any | 141 RETURN TO THE ORIGINAL LEVEL OF PERFECTION |
| nature of the self-perpetuating chain reaction. When a negative chain reaction is activated, each link -- which | 141 RETURN TO THE ORIGINAL LEVEL OF PERFECTION |
| laws of perfect functioning are violated, the more negative chain reactions come into being. The mental and | 141 RETURN TO THE ORIGINAL LEVEL OF PERFECTION |
| become possible for you to retrace the various negative chain reactions, find the appropriate laws, and change | 141 RETURN TO THE ORIGINAL LEVEL OF PERFECTION |
| that any misconception in your psyche that creates negative chain reactions results from your not wanting to | 141 RETURN TO THE ORIGINAL LEVEL OF PERFECTION |
| truth. This then results in one of those negative, self-perpetuating chain reactions. The ignorance that all possibilities | 141 RETURN TO THE ORIGINAL LEVEL OF PERFECTION |
| yourself to a considerable degree in such a negative chain reaction, with all its pain and frustration | 141 RETURN TO THE ORIGINAL LEVEL OF PERFECTION |
| -- which leads you to cling to the negative -- then you are no longer far from | 141 RETURN TO THE ORIGINAL LEVEL OF PERFECTION |
| couldn't face it -- and all the old negative, destructive emotions returned. I suffered and suffered; I | 141 RETURN TO THE ORIGINAL LEVEL OF PERFECTION |
| to a guilt feeling because I get a negative, destructive pleasure out of it. If I would | 141 RETURN TO THE ORIGINAL LEVEL OF PERFECTION |
| to liberate itself. When a person experiences the negative results of such an escape from the self | 142 THE LONGING FOR AND THE FEAR OF HAPPINESS -- THE FEAR OF RELEASING THE LITTLE EGO |
| working magnetic field, or positive self-perpetuating energy. The negative magnetic fields of one's life experience denote not | 142 THE LONGING FOR AND THE FEAR OF HAPPINESS -- THE FEAR OF RELEASING THE LITTLE EGO |
| the positive energy fields good luck and the negative bad luck. When you try to directly control | 142 THE LONGING FOR AND THE FEAR OF HAPPINESS -- THE FEAR OF RELEASING THE LITTLE EGO |
| your energy without being able to change a negative field into a positive. However, you can directly | 142 THE LONGING FOR AND THE FEAR OF HAPPINESS -- THE FEAR OF RELEASING THE LITTLE EGO |
| directly control all that which makes up the negative magnetic field. That is, you can examine yourself | 142 THE LONGING FOR AND THE FEAR OF HAPPINESS -- THE FEAR OF RELEASING THE LITTLE EGO |
| a deep change requires. When caught in a negative magnetic field, a person cannot press for change | 142 THE LONGING FOR AND THE FEAR OF HAPPINESS -- THE FEAR OF RELEASING THE LITTLE EGO |
| will must be used to discover what the negative self-perpetuating field consists of, why it exists, and | 142 THE LONGING FOR AND THE FEAR OF HAPPINESS -- THE FEAR OF RELEASING THE LITTLE EGO |
| controlling ego. Since your destructiveness comes from a negative magnetic field and perpetuates it still further, letting | 142 THE LONGING FOR AND THE FEAR OF HAPPINESS -- THE FEAR OF RELEASING THE LITTLE EGO |
| let go as long as there is a negative magnetic field in any area of your life | 142 THE LONGING FOR AND THE FEAR OF HAPPINESS -- THE FEAR OF RELEASING THE LITTLE EGO |
| volitional faculties to uncover in what specific areas negative magnetic fields manifest. Ask what are the specific | 142 THE LONGING FOR AND THE FEAR OF HAPPINESS -- THE FEAR OF RELEASING THE LITTLE EGO |
| Ask what are the specific areas of the negative magnetic fields? See them clearly and precisely. However | 142 THE LONGING FOR AND THE FEAR OF HAPPINESS -- THE FEAR OF RELEASING THE LITTLE EGO |
| that you see both the positive and the negative areas side by side. There is no one | 142 THE LONGING FOR AND THE FEAR OF HAPPINESS -- THE FEAR OF RELEASING THE LITTLE EGO |
| is no one among you who has only negative magnetic fields. When you compare these two modes | 142 THE LONGING FOR AND THE FEAR OF HAPPINESS -- THE FEAR OF RELEASING THE LITTLE EGO |
| feel relaxed about uncovering the nature of the negative magnetic fields. This, of course, is your path | 142 THE LONGING FOR AND THE FEAR OF HAPPINESS -- THE FEAR OF RELEASING THE LITTLE EGO |
| you to immediately understand the existence of particular negative fields. You will also see that until now | 142 THE LONGING FOR AND THE FEAR OF HAPPINESS -- THE FEAR OF RELEASING THE LITTLE EGO |
| will be able to change its direction. The negative fields contain all your destructive patterns of believing | 142 THE LONGING FOR AND THE FEAR OF HAPPINESS -- THE FEAR OF RELEASING THE LITTLE EGO |
| letting go of outer control. But once the negative magnetic fields are known and understood, they already | 142 THE LONGING FOR AND THE FEAR OF HAPPINESS -- THE FEAR OF RELEASING THE LITTLE EGO |
| be trust. The more positive and the fewer negative fields exist in your human psyche, the greater | 142 THE LONGING FOR AND THE FEAR OF HAPPINESS -- THE FEAR OF RELEASING THE LITTLE EGO |
| in any other genuine way than by correcting negative fields with their ever-repeating undesirable and painful patterns | 142 THE LONGING FOR AND THE FEAR OF HAPPINESS -- THE FEAR OF RELEASING THE LITTLE EGO |
| be self-evident when you understand how and why negative fields work, why they exist, and the fact | 142 THE LONGING FOR AND THE FEAR OF HAPPINESS -- THE FEAR OF RELEASING THE LITTLE EGO |
| principle that trust is justified, that underneath these negative fields there is something that can be trusted | 142 THE LONGING FOR AND THE FEAR OF HAPPINESS -- THE FEAR OF RELEASING THE LITTLE EGO |
| more this vaster power, even underneath the strongest negative self-perpetuation, is contacted -- because such negative process | 142 THE LONGING FOR AND THE FEAR OF HAPPINESS -- THE FEAR OF RELEASING THE LITTLE EGO |
| strongest negative self-perpetuation, is contacted -- because such negative process is only conceived in your own outlook | 142 THE LONGING FOR AND THE FEAR OF HAPPINESS -- THE FEAR OF RELEASING THE LITTLE EGO |
| and you will soon sense an overall larger negative energy field which you block because you evade | 142 THE LONGING FOR AND THE FEAR OF HAPPINESS -- THE FEAR OF RELEASING THE LITTLE EGO |
| I mean in an actual case. Because the negative magnetic field exists in you, letting go of | 142 THE LONGING FOR AND THE FEAR OF HAPPINESS -- THE FEAR OF RELEASING THE LITTLE EGO |
| of all assert the fact, Here is a negative field. This negative field need not exist. It | 142 THE LONGING FOR AND THE FEAR OF HAPPINESS -- THE FEAR OF RELEASING THE LITTLE EGO |
| the fact, Here is a negative field. This negative field need not exist. It is not something | 142 THE LONGING FOR AND THE FEAR OF HAPPINESS -- THE FEAR OF RELEASING THE LITTLE EGO |
| be changed, provided I understand exactly why the negative field exists and what makes it a negative | 142 THE LONGING FOR AND THE FEAR OF HAPPINESS -- THE FEAR OF RELEASING THE LITTLE EGO |
| negative field exists and what makes it a negative, self-perpetuating process. Therefore, I declare that I am | 142 THE LONGING FOR AND THE FEAR OF HAPPINESS -- THE FEAR OF RELEASING THE LITTLE EGO |
| As I have indicated in the past, a negative self-perpetuating field can only exist when the pleasure | 142 THE LONGING FOR AND THE FEAR OF HAPPINESS -- THE FEAR OF RELEASING THE LITTLE EGO |
| you to find and determine where positive and negative magnetic fields exist in you. It can also | 142 THE LONGING FOR AND THE FEAR OF HAPPINESS -- THE FEAR OF RELEASING THE LITTLE EGO |
| help you to consider the possibility that the negative can be reversed if you truly desire this | 142 THE LONGING FOR AND THE FEAR OF HAPPINESS -- THE FEAR OF RELEASING THE LITTLE EGO |
| not see this loss or absence as a negative sign. But when one believes that If I | 144 THE PROCESS AND SIGNIFICANCE OF GROWING |
| moralizer refuses to give up his or her negative trend, moralizing brings more negativity in its wake | 145 RESPONDING TO THE CALL OF LIFE |
| a key not only to where you are negative in expressing your desire, but also where you | 145 RESPONDING TO THE CALL OF LIFE |
| your innermost being, somehow you always find that negative concept of life. There is direct interaction between | 146 POSITIVE CONCEPT OF LIFE-FEARLESSNESS TO LOVE-BALANCE BETWEEN ACTIVITY AND PASSIVITY |
| is direct interaction between your faults and a negative concept of life. This interaction always works both | 146 POSITIVE CONCEPT OF LIFE-FEARLESSNESS TO LOVE-BALANCE BETWEEN ACTIVITY AND PASSIVITY |

| motion by your negative concept of life, your negative beliefs expand even if you are hardly aware | 146 POSITIVE CONCEPT OF LIFE-FEARLESSNESS TO LOVE-BALANCE BETWEEN ACTIVITY AND PASSIVITY |
| hardly aware of them. And because of your negative beliefs, you take a defensive position toward life | 146 POSITIVE CONCEPT OF LIFE-FEARLESSNESS TO LOVE-BALANCE BETWEEN ACTIVITY AND PASSIVITY |
| to you. In other words, you take a negative assumption for granted. Once you see this, you | 146 POSITIVE CONCEPT OF LIFE-FEARLESSNESS TO LOVE-BALANCE BETWEEN ACTIVITY AND PASSIVITY |
| as it is impossible to transform from a negative to a positive attitude, concept, or characteristic by | 146 POSITIVE CONCEPT OF LIFE-FEARLESSNESS TO LOVE-BALANCE BETWEEN ACTIVITY AND PASSIVITY |
| you connect your fear of loving with your negative concept of life on the one hand, and | 146 POSITIVE CONCEPT OF LIFE-FEARLESSNESS TO LOVE-BALANCE BETWEEN ACTIVITY AND PASSIVITY |
| may see a very important connection between the negative concept of life, which also implies your innermost | 146 POSITIVE CONCEPT OF LIFE-FEARLESSNESS TO LOVE-BALANCE BETWEEN ACTIVITY AND PASSIVITY |
| often believe this pathwork to be destructive or negative. It must appear that way from the viewpoint | 147 THE NATURE OF LIFE AND HUMAN NATURE |
| assume that the ultimate reality of life is negative, as you fear the ultimate reality of yourself | 147 THE NATURE OF LIFE AND HUMAN NATURE |
| the ultimate reality of yourself also to be negative. This is so hard to face that you | 147 THE NATURE OF LIFE AND HUMAN NATURE |
| believe either the fake good feelings or the negative ones they produce to avoid death and nothingness | 147 THE NATURE OF LIFE AND HUMAN NATURE |
| opposite state. The justification manifests as a destructive, negative world view to justify a personal fear. The | 147 THE NATURE OF LIFE AND HUMAN NATURE |
| fully seeing it. Illusion also means producing unreal negative emotions. This, too, may be subtle. Both positive | 147 THE NATURE OF LIFE AND HUMAN NATURE |
| This, too, may be subtle. Both positive and negative false emotions can be so subtle that it | 147 THE NATURE OF LIFE AND HUMAN NATURE |
| dramatized. Again, this may apply to positive or negative emotions. Dramatizing negative emotions is just as frequent | 147 THE NATURE OF LIFE AND HUMAN NATURE |
| may apply to positive or negative emotions. Dramatizing negative emotions is just as frequent as pretending positive | 147 THE NATURE OF LIFE AND HUMAN NATURE |
| and clung to. Artificial feelings, both positive and negative, serve to alleviate the terror of non-feeling, which | 147 THE NATURE OF LIFE AND HUMAN NATURE |
| of false feelings. Artificial production of positive and negative feelings are both equally damaging, but each breeds | 147 THE NATURE OF LIFE AND HUMAN NATURE |
| level. False positive feelings breed irreconcilable conflicts. False negative feelings, after a time, appear as real negative | 147 THE NATURE OF LIFE AND HUMAN NATURE |
| negative feelings, after a time, appear as real negative feelings. They begin to envelop you and involve | 147 THE NATURE OF LIFE AND HUMAN NATURE |
| much more frightening and peace-robbing than a real negative feeling. You all know that on this temporary | 147 THE NATURE OF LIFE AND HUMAN NATURE |
| that on this temporary plane of existence real negative feelings do exist, real anger, real fear, real | 147 THE NATURE OF LIFE AND HUMAN NATURE |
| such division tend to think, Here are my negative feelings. I wish I could have positive feelings | 148 POSITIVITY AND NEGATIVITY: ONE ENERGY CURRENT |
| feelings instead. Or you believe that after the negative emotions are dissipated, a new set of feelings | 148 POSITIVITY AND NEGATIVITY: ONE ENERGY CURRENT |
| not been eliminated in previous existences, the outer negative conditions will create a severe blockage, freezing the | 148 POSITIVITY AND NEGATIVITY: ONE ENERGY CURRENT |
| mass. When no previous blockages exist, the outer negative conditions will create only a temporary disturbance in | 148 POSITIVITY AND NEGATIVITY: ONE ENERGY CURRENT |
| the relationship between the inner and the outer negative conditions responsible for the blockage are thoroughly understood | 148 POSITIVITY AND NEGATIVITY: ONE ENERGY CURRENT |
| immature ego faculties make adequate dealing with the negative condition impossible. An outer negative condition can therefore | 148 POSITIVITY AND NEGATIVITY: ONE ENERGY CURRENT |
| dealing with the negative condition impossible. An outer negative condition can therefore never be totally responsible for | 148 POSITIVITY AND NEGATIVITY: ONE ENERGY CURRENT |
| be the final activating factor, bringing the dormant negative inner condition to the fore. The place in | 148 POSITIVITY AND NEGATIVITY: ONE ENERGY CURRENT |
| fore. The place in the soul where outer negative conditions activate the dormant inner negative condition is | 148 POSITIVITY AND NEGATIVITY: ONE ENERGY CURRENT |
| where outer negative conditions activate the dormant inner negative condition is the very point at which the | 148 POSITIVITY AND NEGATIVITY: ONE ENERGY CURRENT |
| trust to distrust, and so on. Finally, the negative power becomes so unbearable that the feelings connected | 148 POSITIVITY AND NEGATIVITY: ONE ENERGY CURRENT |
| important for them to understand specifically that a negative emotion cannot be replaced by a different positive | 148 POSITIVITY AND NEGATIVITY: ONE ENERGY CURRENT |
| have understood that the painful aspects, meaning the negative expression, can be abandoned, while the pleasurable aspect | 148 POSITIVITY AND NEGATIVITY: ONE ENERGY CURRENT |
