DOUBT AND SUSPICION

I was happy since you could keep an open mind in spite of having persistent doubt and suspicion. Doubt and suspicion may and can happen again. It is always best to keep a balanced mind in these situations. It is even better if no decisions are made during that time. It is also better if care is taken so that the chain of thoughts is not formed while in doubt. If thoughts about doubt and suspicion keep coming; it means that you are supporting the thoughts. Life of these thoughts keep prolonged as a result of this support. We need to work to reduce the force, speed and strength of these thoughts. Occasionally such doubt may spring up to show us the right way. Whenever there is a feeling of doubt and suspicion, it is better if there is peace, balanced mind and equanimity within preventing us from being entangled in web of doubt and suspicion.
