Obstacles in Spiritual Life – 18
Remember the two words: alertness and awareness. Be aware of what you think. Be alert and root out bad thoughts when they come. The mind has a habit of thinking good and bad at the same time. When I entertain bad thoughts nobody can know. It is in the secret chamber of my mind. God has created the mind like that. It is not our fault; it is a challenge that God has given us. Fight it out, fight out the bad thoughts. That is called spirituality. If we study ourselves we will be aware when bad thoughts come. Here the trouble is that we tend to enjoy them. Fight it, knowing that it is not going to do any good to anyone or to myself.
