Emotional and spiritual foods...[part 2]

Get rid of negative emotions.... that is jealousy.... read and digest...


The barrier of jealousy inhibits one to live the life of moderation.
This race of competitiveness pushes all love behind,
dismisses all gratitude,
tears up all sympathy,
secreting within an acid that burns any response from the heart,
allowing the mind to whip upon you its bruises of pride.


As the wounds of jealousy get more infected,
one begins to react to its pain by depicting more aggresiveness and less compassion.
This fire has consumed the hours of rest,
it has pinched from one his sense of satisfaction,
it has given one only the disease of restless thoughts and has taken away the identity of humanness,
leaving one to be the animal that stands on its two feet of desperate desire and constant unfulfillment.


A need will only be fulfilled,
My dears, but the "want" of another's "need"
will never satiate or appease the eye that burns in worldly wakefulness.
Know, My dears, that when one is thirsty, water is his only need -
any other cold drink will only salute the fancy of his taste buds,
quenching little or no thirst.
