00:00:02,400 --> 00:00:05,900
Ordinarily, when we reflect on
addressing impurities in the
2
00:00:05,900 --> 00:00:11,000
nature, whether in the mind, the
emotions, the vital nature, or
3
00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:15,400
the physical body, we tend to
fixate upon the weakness or
4
00:00:15,400 --> 00:00:20,200
limitation, we have identified
and work to directly control
5
00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:25,900
change or suppress.
It, this is what may be termed a
6
00:00:25,908 --> 00:00:30,800
negative approach to
purification A positive approach
7
00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:34,800
consists of building up the
psychological force of Peace,
8
00:00:35,500 --> 00:00:41,200
which in and of itself, prevents
many of the disruptions that we,
9
00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:45,000
otherwise would want to change,
or remove from our nature.
10
00:00:46,100 --> 00:00:50,900
The deeper, the piece, the less,
the outer impulses can disturb
11
00:00:51,100 --> 00:00:54,800
and disrupt it all cultivating.
Peace in.
12
00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:59,100
The being is a progressive
process over time, there can be
13
00:00:59,100 --> 00:01:03,500
a conscious effort to not react
to the impulses that ordinarily,
14
00:01:03,500 --> 00:01:07,800
would create a disturbance.
And this may Aid in the opening
15
00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:12,700
to the higher Force as it
descends, from above, and fills,
16
00:01:12,700 --> 00:01:15,800
the being with the true peace,
that resides.
17
00:01:15,900 --> 00:01:21,800
Those higher planes.
Fewer open do notes quote, it
18
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:27,400
Purity is more a condition than
a substance piece helps to
19
00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:33,200
purify since in peace.
Disturbing influences, cease and
20
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:37,500
the essence of Purity is to
respond only to the Divine
21
00:01:37,500 --> 00:01:42,500
influence and not to have an
affinity with other movement.
22
00:01:43,900 --> 00:01:47,900
If you get peace, then to clean
the vital becomes easy.
23
00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:52,200
If you simply clean and clean
and do nothing else, you go very
24
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:57,100
slowly for the vital gets dirty
again, and has to be cleaned a
25
00:01:57,100 --> 00:02:01,200
hundred times.
The piece is something that is
26
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:05,600
clean in itself.
So to get it is a positive way
27
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:11,700
of securing your object to look
for dirt only and clean is the

negative way in quote, reference
