Quote:

ESSENCE: In the salok, Guru ji state the five mental attributes that affect living. These being lust, anger, greed, attachment and egotism. Guru ji pray to be blessed so these are banished.

Guru Arjan Dev ji in Astpadi 6, 2nd stanza cite the comfortable clothes, comfortable sleeping, the honor from the world, guidance to stay principled. Guru ji remind that the creator and provider of all such should not be forgotten, one should instead be aware twenty four hours, should speak of such, should contemplate and find rest and completion of life.

Please note all errors are mine and I stand corrected.

Sat Sri Akal.

Sat Sri Akaal,
Focus on ਬਿਨਸਿ ਜਾਇ

Nature cause thoughts, (positive and negative)
Thoughts cause emotions (positive and negative),
emotions cause actions(positive and negative)

Understanding of this,
connects one to nature,
causing balance in thoughts, emotions and actions.

In balance state negative appears to disappearਬਿਨਸਿ ਜਾਇ.
Reference:: Sikh Philosophy Network http://www.sikhphilosophy.net/sukhmani-sahib/37906-sukhmani-sahib-astpadi-6-sabad-2-a.html

But balance state is difficult to maintain.

As to positive state,
gravity acts and negative appears.

One seeks all positive bu negative appears as part of true nature.

Who accepts for ultimate negative, gets ultimate positive.
Reference:: Sikh Philosophy Network http://www.sikhphilosophy.net/showthread.php?t=37906

Life is like a coin, bigger the head (positive), bigger the tail (negative)

One who accepts both achieves balance.
