ANNIHILATE CONFLICT
When you are in a harmonious environment your mind picks up any excuse to be in conflict. So often small things are enough to create big turmoil. If you have a conflicting environment you tend to seek harmony ... Have you noticed this?
Ask yourself this question: Do you seek harmony in every situation or do you seek to widen the differences and prove your righteousness?
When your survival is at stake, you don't complain that nobody loves you. When you are safe and secure you start demanding attention. Many people create conflict in order to get attention.
The seed of negativity and the tendency for conflict in you can only be annihilated by Sadhana.

Decision And Confusion
Sri Sri: Decision comes only when there is confusion. When there is no confusion then there is no decision. For example, if there is a piece of wood and a biscuit on your desk, you don't decide which one to eat, isn't that right? Decision is always about choice and choice is always confusing. So, all decision-makers are confused! (Laughter)
Action is spontaneous when there is no actor. In you, there is an actor and there is a witness. An actor is either confused or decisive, but the witness realizes that the action is spontaneous and smiles.
The more decisions you make, the more confused you are, and as a result you swing between pain and pleasure. The more the witness grows in you, the more playful and untouched you are. Trust, faith, love and joy all manifest in and around you.
Are you confused, decided or happy now?
Eberhard: Confusion is too strong of an expression. Is it not rather "choice"?
Urmila: We are decided that choice is confusion. (Everyone laughs)
Hans Peter: Is there any freedom without confusion?
Sri Sri: When you are confused, there is no freedom.
Hans Peter: What is freedom of choice?
Sri Sri: Confusion! (Laughter)
