Positive Thinking: From Negative Thoughts to Positive

To see any one incident, there are two different viewpoints. One is a positive vision and another a negative vision. Positive vision means an approach that finds out the good in any kind of situation. Whereas negative vision implies an attitude of finding flaws even in good circumstances. For example, if someone has given us half cup of tea, then a person with negative vision gets angry that, “Only this much tea?”; whereas, the person with a positive vision thinks just the opposite, “Doesn’t matter if it’s half a cup, but I got some tea at least!” So, positive thinking comes from positive vision.

Negative is in the favour of intellect and positive is in favour of heart. If we see, every suffering in the world is due to adverse, meaning negative vision. Violence, lies, stealing and adultery in the world are all said to be negative. Whereas truth, non-violence, non-stealing and chastity are all said to be positive.

There can be both positive as well as negative in our own vision or in the vision of those near and around us. But mostly, in today’s era, we get to see more of negative. Is our vision positive or negative? How can we recognize that? What causes negativity? How does negativity impact us and others? What is the power of positive thinking? How to be positive in life? What is the key to turning negative into positive? Here, we get a detailed analysis of all these questions, with the help of which, we can shift from negative thoughts to positive and are able to experience happiness and peace in life.

Spiritual Quotes on Positivity

  1. In this world, only the ‘positive’ will give you happiness; the ‘negative’ will give you nothing but a great deal of grief (dukh).
  2. Every matter in this world is to be taken in a positive way. If you turn towards the negative, you will go in the wrong direction and cause others to do the same.
  3. We should maintain only one stance, 'To see positive.' The world is treading on the path of positive and negative. Sooner or later they will turn that negative into a positive, so why not maintain a positive stance right from the beginning?
  4. In trying to divide the negative, a lot of time is wasted, whereas if we go with the positive, it happens immediately, automatically! Why are you unnecessarily wasting time in trying to push aside the inauspicious [negative] karma?
  5. There are only two things, ‘positive’ and ‘negative’. If you remain negative, whom would nature help? We should not have ‘negative’ in our dictionary.
  6. ‘We’ win over ‘negative’ with ‘positive’.
  7. There is tremendous energy in the word ‘yes’ and tremendous weakness in the word ‘no’.
  8. The world is stuck because of the word ‘no’.
  9. Satsang means the coming together (yog) of the eternal (sat); it is the coming together of good things, of positive things. And the coming together of negative things causes misery.
  10. Antray (obstacles) are created by speaking completely negatively; and 'positive' does not create obstacles.
  11. Always speak in a positive manner because there is a Soul within the person you are talking to. When something positive happens, it is wrong to say anything negative about it. All these problems arise because one states the negative in that which is positive. And whenever you say, “No harm done,” the instant you say this, tremendous changes take place from within. So always speak positively.
  12. The whole world has constantly wandered around in ‘negativity’ and died. This ‘Akram’ [science] is a fine ‘positive’ path.
  13. Good inner intent, higher inner intent, is one’s ‘positive’ effort with which one will go to higher life forms. And wrong inner intent is one’s negative effort, which will take one to the lower life forms. And the real self effort is that which one does after he becomes the Self (Pure Soul) which takes one to moksha.
