Spiritual Wisdom:

"Visualize your aggressive forces being put into the service of positive aims. You can claim refutation of negative influences. You can talk to your own false thoughts with firmness and reasonableness. See yourself doing that. Invite Christ to be your assistance in this endeavor. Then claim with all the vigor at your disposal, all the aggression that is beginning to transform from negative to positive, that you want only the will of God; that you trust that the will of God will bring you the best you could ever hope for; that any distrust of the will of the Highest is a lie you need to rid yourself of. The more aggression you put into such declarations and intents, the better the seeds will grow in your soul substance.
 
"Your aggression itself needs to be transformed. This will enable you to become who you are meant to be -- who you actually are already on another level of reality. Perhaps some of you can occasionally begin to visualize another picture of yourself. Imagine your real being, free from all the encumbrances that burden you now. Whether these encumbrances are in your body, in your psyche, or in your relationship to others and the world, does not matter. They are all expressions of pain, the pain you suffer from some untruthfulness contained within your psyche. It is not easy to ferret out what this untruthfulness may be. Sometimes it is right on the surface and will become clear to you after only a slight effort on your part to want to see it. Other times, your defensive blocks blot out your own view, but they are nevertheless obvious enough to others who could help you if you let them. This is why working with others is such an important aspect of this pathwork -- both in the helper/worker relationship as well as in groups, as well as in your interactions in your daily life. But then there is also untruthfulness so deeply buried that it may take a long time and much trial before you can make it rise to a sufficient surface level to be recognized.
 
"Once the untruthfulness is on the surface, and you are able and willing to see and confront it, this is the moment in time when aggression can be transformed. This is also the moment when a further visualization can take place. Imagine that your true being -- which means your being in truth, all in truth -- observes that suffering part of you, the part that is squeezed into a smaller world in which you sometimes appear to suffocate. Your real being that is without any shades of untruthfulness, error, distortion (sin) is therefore in total well-being. There is no pain there. This true being observes your earth being that has undertaken to correct the distorted part. It observes with compassion for the momentary difficulties, but without tragedy, for it knows that all is well and that the temporary suffering must lead to salvation." (PL #258)

"All doubt is evil. But since evil has no permanent substance, you can easily dispel it. You need to bring your positive aggression to bear upon it, which is very contrary to the usual habit. Usually all aggression is put into the service of lower self aims, while an apathetic, passive attitude exists vis-a-vis the good you desire to receive from life. At the same time, it is equally true to state that you are passive and apathetic when you are enveloped in the negativities that stem from your unpurified self and that therefore draws evil forces to you. It then seems much easier to let all aggression out in a destructive way and give in to these negative influences, without using any of your aggressive aspects to either dispel them or to assert the positive forces within and around you."
