Seeker-Something I have been doing lately, when my negativities come up, is to say to myself: Just relax and be with Swamiji.

Swamiji - That is one way of resolving, by diverting it to your Goal, your Sadhguru, your God. It will take time though. In between you will have certain tussles, but that is a way to practice until it clears. If negativities continue, then be compassionate. You have to pay the price for everything. It does not mean that you are forgiven right away. Paying the price means that whatever is needed to change, God or Guru will provide for you. And there lies the whole thing. When we divert things to God, we take it for granted that God will take care of everything. But now God is dealing with you. This is what it means to pay the price, but the ultimate outcome is divine. See what you can resolve. What you cannot resolve leave upon God, your Guru, or your Goal. God never interferes with us, be sure.

Your Sadhguru will never interfere unless you bring the case to him. If you want to keep quiet and hide it, he also hides it. But that will create problems in your life. So, wherever you can resolve, you have a freedom to do so. Do not be complacent about solving problems; it will create other problems. Resolve if you can, if not call God for that. If you cannot let go, be a quiet observer. Pause before you think or act. Then you will not be carried away or identified with the phenomena and get lost in them. This detached witnessing or un-identifying makes you gradually relax.
