Anger, greed, attachment, and aversion

are the diseases of the mind

which make meditation, knowing who you are, impossible.

Anger arises only when there are two

and this two-ness is ego.

Anger, greed, hypocrisy, lust, and jealousy

all are mighty enemies on the battlefield,

but conquer ego and you will conquer all of these.

Do not get involved in anger, greed or lust,

these are the ego, don’t let yourself be involved.

If greed interests you, be greedy for Freedom!

If you are angry then be angry with God,

and if you must lust, desire the Union with your Heart.

Check the flowing river of mind by damming it

and then channeling it or the dam will break

due to floods of anger and greed.

The channels must irrigate in the right direction.

Then anger, greed, and grief will run harmlessly.

So let them arise and as they do

know that you are the Source and forget about them.

Remember only your True Self,

like this you can face all circumstances!
