👉 Eradication of evil tendencies

Many times, morally sound people are seen indulging in ill-stuffs. The reason for that is, the ill tendencies are deep-rooted somewhere inside them and they pop up as and when they get opportunity.Just like for a person who keeps thinking about stealing things, it's not difficult to do so whenever he gets a chance. A person who might be highly knowledgeable in his physical appearance but has evil tendencies in his mind, would be ultimately considered an immoral person. Because of pressure of social etiquette, even though the physical action did not take place but it was always present in its subtle form in his mind. Thus if opportunity was there, the sin would have been committed.

So continuous efforts must be made to remove bad tendencies hiding in subtle mind. Therefore it is absolutely necessary, that whatever bad tendencies we find in our actions, thoughts and personality, we gather positive thoughts contradictory to these tendencies and do arrangements to make them available to mind again and again.

The eradication of bad thoughts is only possible by current of good thoughts.
