No More Negativity!
From this moment on, no more negativity. Let me explain … Negativity is any talk or thought about your own incapacity to find the truth. Negativity is any despair in you: ‘I can’t do it. No matter how hard I try, I can’t do it. I am so dense. I am so unenlightened. I am so this, I am so that.’ And do you know who’s speaking? It’s the ‘talker’ - a subconscious condition of pain and lack of communication that’s inside every one of us, and has been, for a long, long time.
You love the truth, although you might not know it all the time. In loving the truth, you love God, and in loving God you love life … That’s your purity. The talker is always emphasising the negative, but how about acknowledging your purity?
Stay with the acknowledgment of the purity. Because purity is your love of truth. Your love of truth is so subtle, so fine, all you can say is, ‘I love the truth. I’m not sure what the truth is, but I love it.’
In that moment of loving the truth, or acknowledging your purity, there is a great absence in you. You don’t know what you are loving. You don’t know who’s loving. All you know is, ‘I just love it. I will never give up because I can’t stay away from it. I just love it.’
That’s the purity of love. That’s the purity of humility. That’s the purity of giving up the talker, the negative one...
You love something. Something inexplicable. You truly love it and you’ve never been able to give it up. No matter what you do, somehow or other it keeps calling you back...

Can you see the truth?
