not going to enjoy my life.” If you do not throw it away, it is like keeping the peels and seeds of fruit until they rot and smell and invite insects into your home. So you go to the root of that negative event or thought, and you become so alert that like a furnace, your intense awareness burns all the previous karmas.
You can use the vibrations of words, mantras, positive meditation, self-affirmation, self-investigation to neutralize old vibrations and free. yourself from them. Taking the responsibility on yourself and using your own power of awareness, you will realize that the intensity of your meditation is strong enough to free you.
By following these two practices, samvara and nirjara, sentient energy becomes liberated from the power of insentient karmic matter. It is like drying up a lake. Stopping unpleasant vibrations from coming in is like preparing a frame or a dam so that new water will not come in. Then you let the heat of the summer sun dry the rest, just as you allow the fire of your meditation to burn old accumulated karmic vibrations. Then the place where the lake used to be is dry and ready for use. Similarly, consciousness which has become clear and cleansed, can experience a blissful prosperous life.
