I remember in your talks.. To keep a separate part of yourself and when I go with there, I learn to step back. Also, when with my children, I am actually working on this. Why am I unable to do it at times when I don’t want to hit my children? I tried it worked. Then, after just a month, I again happen to lose it and React, how to tell or train the mind? Do I need to work on the inner child, etc? Like the Mother also says, it stains our consciousness and spoils their Character?
It takes time, as nature tends to move in fixed groves of habit. But with persistence and perseverance, adding prayers for Her Grace to our own efforts. The one practice we need to incorporate in our everyday life is to step back before speaking, to delay the first impulse, and to reflect upon the consequences of what we feel like speaking before we do so. With practice and persistence, the change comes.
Affectionately,
