| give up the negativity. If you will not give it up you do need the illusion that | 176 OVERCOMING NEGATIVITY |

| be admitted that you do not want to give this up. You must see what price you | 176 OVERCOMING NEGATIVITY |
| is not established, you cannot really want to give up the negativity. You must see the heavy | 176 OVERCOMING NEGATIVITY |
| pay to be truly motivated to want to give it up. It is not enough to give | 176 OVERCOMING NEGATIVITY |
| give it up. It is not enough to give it up because you ought to, knowing that | 176 OVERCOMING NEGATIVITY |

| is not easy. How can you want to give up the various ways in which you violate | 177 PLEASURE -- THE FULL PULSATION OF LIFE |
| in genuine pleasure only to the degree you give up the false, negative pleasure. You must find | 177 PLEASURE -- THE FULL PULSATION OF LIFE |

| unfulfillment, your unhappiness, and your inner refusal to give up persisting negativity. Only when this is worked | 181 THE MEANING OF THE HUMAN STRUGGLE |
| for the sake of a momentary satisfaction you give in to these destructive impulses? When questions like | 182 PROCESS OF MEDITATION (MEDITATION FOR THREE VOICES: EGO, LOWER SELF, HIGHER SELF) |
| allow it -- to overcome the temptation to give in again and again to destructive impulses. Such | 182 PROCESS OF MEDITATION (MEDITATION FOR THREE VOICES: EGO, LOWER SELF, HIGHER SELF) |

| destructiveness, negativity, or evil -- whatever name you give it. The great difficulty you are up against | 184 THE MEANING OF EVIL AND ITS TRANSCENDENCE |
| assumptions. Their attitudes express this underlying life-orientation. To give up selfwill does not diminish the free spirit | 184 THE MEANING OF EVIL AND ITS TRANSCENDENCE |
| does it diminish your genuine dignity when you give up the pride that hides the evil. Evil | 184 THE MEANING OF EVIL AND ITS TRANSCENDENCE |
| thus confronted with an insoluble predicament: either you give up all pleasure connected with overspending and irresponsibility | 184 THE MEANING OF EVIL AND ITS TRANSCENDENCE |
| either/or problems. How can you really want to give up irresponsibility if responsibility implies living on a | 184 THE MEANING OF EVIL AND ITS TRANSCENDENCE |
| self-expression? Since you do not really want to give up the irresponsibility, you feel guilty. Thus you | 184 THE MEANING OF EVIL AND ITS TRANSCENDENCE |
| as such, you will also find how to give it expression without infringing on others, without violating | 184 THE MEANING OF EVIL AND ITS TRANSCENDENCE |
| negation, even then it is often impossible to give it up. At this point you do have | 186 VENTURE IN MUTUALITY: HEALING FORCE TO CHANGE NEGATIVE INNER WILL |

| and activate the best in others. This may give the other persons an inkling of what they | 188 AFFECTING AND BEING AFFECTED |
| in touch with those who are ready to give them love and help. Thus they spread evil | 188 AFFECTING AND BEING AFFECTED |
| and are, as I said, free enough to give their best, undefended. However, this does not yet | 188 AFFECTING AND BEING AFFECTED |
| off everything and anything that life has to give so abundantly. Thus, the defenses are to your | 188 AFFECTING AND BEING AFFECTED |
| too limited. But I do not intend to give you an impractical abstract lecture. According to its | 189 SELF-IDENTIFICATION DETERMINED THROUGH STAGES OF CONSCIOUSNESS |
| other hand, how can you truly want to give up these negative traits or even fully face | 189 SELF-IDENTIFICATION DETERMINED THROUGH STAGES OF CONSCIOUSNESS |
| diligently and conscientiously to shed the mask, to give up defenses, and to overcome the resistance to | 189 SELF-IDENTIFICATION DETERMINED THROUGH STAGES OF CONSCIOUSNESS |
| ways; learning from mistakes and failures; refusing to give up when immediate success fails to arrive; putting | 189 SELF-IDENTIFICATION DETERMINED THROUGH STAGES OF CONSCIOUSNESS |

| this room. Every once in a while I give a lecture which is an outline or blueprint | 190 IMPORTANCE OF EXPERIENCING ALL FEELINGS, INCLUDING FEAR - DYNAMIC STATE OF LAZINESS |
| in short, the path. I will attempt to give an overview of all that we have covered | 190 IMPORTANCE OF EXPERIENCING ALL FEELINGS, INCLUDING FEAR - DYNAMIC STATE OF LAZINESS |
| your being. There you can let go, and give yourself freely to all the accumulated feelings which | 190 IMPORTANCE OF EXPERIENCING ALL FEELINGS, INCLUDING FEAR - DYNAMIC STATE OF LAZINESS |
| the fear itself, this fear will very quickly give way to another denied feeling. The denied feeling | 190 IMPORTANCE OF EXPERIENCING ALL FEELINGS, INCLUDING FEAR - DYNAMIC STATE OF LAZINESS |
| that the specific focusing and conscious direction you give to your meditations evokes an inner guidance in | 190 IMPORTANCE OF EXPERIENCING ALL FEELINGS, INCLUDING FEAR - DYNAMIC STATE OF LAZINESS |
| examining what is at stake. You have to give consideration to the fundamental question which can be | 190 IMPORTANCE OF EXPERIENCING ALL FEELINGS, INCLUDING FEAR - DYNAMIC STATE OF LAZINESS |

| hopelessness -- which is always unbearable -- will give way to a new insight which will lead | 191 INNER AND OUTER EXPERIENCE |
| alternating with your present feelings. By learning to give up the fight against them, you will, for | 191 INNER AND OUTER EXPERIENCE |
| and people for the next incarnation that will give an opportunity to bring this dormant, unassimilated material | 192 REAL AND FALSE NEEDS |
| and loved because they will be able to give themselves the self-esteem they could not feel when | 192 REAL AND FALSE NEEDS |
| Real needs never require others to comply and give it to you. Only to the little self | 192 REAL AND FALSE NEEDS |
| when the soul is ready to love and give, which must never be confused with the neurotic | 192 REAL AND FALSE NEEDS |
| remains slighted. Once you are truly ready to give up the old case, start to live in | 192 REAL AND FALSE NEEDS |
| the past. This means that you discover and give up the false needs that have accrued from | 192 REAL AND FALSE NEEDS |
| emphasis shifted to factors outside yourself. If you give voice to this irrational side, you will find | 192 REAL AND FALSE NEEDS |
| to the false need that says, You must give me what I need, what I insist upon | 192 REAL AND FALSE NEEDS |
| be this way, not that way. Life must give me this; I must have it. When you | 192 REAL AND FALSE NEEDS |
| present. Then you have no choice but to give up the future. The energies that are being | 192 REAL AND FALSE NEEDS |
| life now make up for it all and give to you gratuitously, leaving you as a recipient | 192 REAL AND FALSE NEEDS |
| help and the guidance I am privileged to give you. I have been asked to give a | 193 RÉSUMÉ OF THE BASIC PRINCIPLES OF THE PATHWORK: ITS AIM AND PROCESS |
| to give you. I have been asked to give a résumé of the teachings which I have | 193 RÉSUMÉ OF THE BASIC PRINCIPLES OF THE PATHWORK: ITS AIM AND PROCESS |

| Yet it will prove helpful because it will give all of you a better understanding of the | 194 MEDITATION: LAWS AND VARIOUS APPROACHES-SUMMARY (MEDITATION AS POSITIVE LIFE CREATION) |
| your hatred, your demanding love -- and truly give it up, you can meditate first for your | 194 MEDITATION: LAWS AND VARIOUS APPROACHES-SUMMARY (MEDITATION AS POSITIVE LIFE CREATION) |
| it is such an important point. Many people give up meditation because it does not seem to | 194 MEDITATION: LAWS AND VARIOUS APPROACHES-SUMMARY (MEDITATION AS POSITIVE LIFE CREATION) |
| to work. They disregard their unconscious ambivalence and give up. If, for example, you have a strong | 194 MEDITATION: LAWS AND VARIOUS APPROACHES-SUMMARY (MEDITATION AS POSITIVE LIFE CREATION) |
| traits one does not wish to face and give up, or residual feelings one does not wish | 194 MEDITATION: LAWS AND VARIOUS APPROACHES-SUMMARY (MEDITATION AS POSITIVE LIFE CREATION) |
| you have not yet experienced. You must then give this possibility a chance -- an honest chance | 194 MEDITATION: LAWS AND VARIOUS APPROACHES-SUMMARY (MEDITATION AS POSITIVE LIFE CREATION) |
| doubts it could be true. Yet I will give it a further chance. Right here at this | 194 MEDITATION: LAWS AND VARIOUS APPROACHES-SUMMARY (MEDITATION AS POSITIVE LIFE CREATION) |

| by wanting more than you are willing to give, you violate another important cosmic law, so that | 194 MEDITATION: LAWS AND VARIOUS APPROACHES-SUMMARY (MEDITATION AS POSITIVE LIFE CREATION) |
| to get more than I am willing to give, then my conviction will be lacking. Or, if | 194 MEDITATION: LAWS AND VARIOUS APPROACHES-SUMMARY (MEDITATION AS POSITIVE LIFE CREATION) |

| and deserve it because you are willing to give up all negative, obstructing attitudes. This total commitment | 194 MEDITATION: LAWS AND VARIOUS APPROACHES-SUMMARY (MEDITATION AS POSITIVE LIFE CREATION) |
| specific purpose, similar to the way I now give my power to you. It will in its | 194 MEDITATION: LAWS AND VARIOUS APPROACHES-SUMMARY (MEDITATION AS POSITIVE LIFE CREATION) |
| the word sacrifice becomes indeed ludicrous, for you give up nothing to gain everything. In the last | 195 IDENTIFICATION WITH THE SPIRITUAL SELF TO OVERCOME NEGATIVE INTENTIONALITY |
| be fully acknowledged and accepted before you can give them up. It is impossible to let go | 195 IDENTIFICATION WITH THE SPIRITUAL SELF TO OVERCOME NEGATIVE INTENTIONALITY |
| life: an attitude that expresses no desire to give, to love, to contribute, to reach out, to | 195 IDENTIFICATION WITH THE SPIRITUAL SELF TO OVERCOME NEGATIVE INTENTIONALITY |
| the destructive, cruel, and brutal attitudes, you always give an impression that you cannot help being the | 195 IDENTIFICATION WITH THE SPIRITUAL SELF TO OVERCOME NEGATIVE INTENTIONALITY |
| want to withhold any longer, but want to give the best of myself to life. I do | 195 IDENTIFICATION WITH THE SPIRITUAL SELF TO OVERCOME NEGATIVE INTENTIONALITY |
| not need my spitefulness and truly desire to give it up. I want to reach out and | 195 IDENTIFICATION WITH THE SPIRITUAL SELF TO OVERCOME NEGATIVE INTENTIONALITY |
| it up. I want to reach out and give to life and receive equally the best life | 195 IDENTIFICATION WITH THE SPIRITUAL SELF TO OVERCOME NEGATIVE INTENTIONALITY |
| But when you reaffirm the senseless refusal to give up negative will, it is because you are | 195 IDENTIFICATION WITH THE SPIRITUAL SELF TO OVERCOME NEGATIVE INTENTIONALITY |
| whatever degree this may hold true, you cannot give up the lower self. The refusal to do | 195 IDENTIFICATION WITH THE SPIRITUAL SELF TO OVERCOME NEGATIVE INTENTIONALITY |
| that my reality ceases to exist when I give up my negative intention and will? Is this | 195 IDENTIFICATION WITH THE SPIRITUAL SELF TO OVERCOME NEGATIVE INTENTIONALITY |
| choice. It cannot be claimed that when you give up your negative intentionality you will instantly experience | 195 IDENTIFICATION WITH THE SPIRITUAL SELF TO OVERCOME NEGATIVE INTENTIONALITY |
| very real. At the same time, it will give you a new key to use the equipment | 195 IDENTIFICATION WITH THE SPIRITUAL SELF TO OVERCOME NEGATIVE INTENTIONALITY |
