Good News! The Mara has been Defeated
“3. In my every action, I will watch my mind,
And the moment destructive emotions arise,
I will confront them strongly and avert them,
Since they will hurt both me and others.”
Remember to observe our own minds at all times. If we can stay vigilant, we shall not be carried along by our habitual nature.
No matter what we come across in life, try to restrain and refrain ourselves from following our habitual nature, then all things will go well.
