Ms. Laxmi Thrylokya asked: Pādanamaskāram Swami, How to be always with positive energy and how to always avoid negative energy?
Swami replied:- Awareness and its modes called thoughts are modifications of energy only. Thoughts linked to the divine goal of God are always positive and thoughts linked to world are always negative. The positive energy means satisfaction, courage and happiness. The negative energy means tension, fear and misery. If you concentrate your mind towards to God you will get positive energy. If you concentrate your mind to the world you will get negative energy.

Re: How to be always with positive energy?
Post #2How about this: The way to avoid negative energy is... not to avoid it. Love the bad, because there will always be some bad.
You can easily avoid the worst, but maybe you shouldn't try.
You might not want to eat ramen noddles. You only want to eat food that costs $1 or more. That's perfectly reasonable. Nobody wants to eat ramen all the time.
But then, the $1 meal is the worst meal. Then, you want anything other than that. Pretty soon it's all goat cheese and caviar, and that's average.
So just... love the bad. Eat ramen sometimes. Think about death. Listen to the saddest stories and songs you can find, but also the happiest.
