Hi Lal,

I do get those defiled thoughts from time to time. I will try to ignore them as much as I can. Don’t give them attention and they will usually go away on their own. For those defiled thoughts that are more difficult to deal with, I will perform self-admonishment. I will try to dictate terms with my mind and let it see the grave danger of persistently clinging on to those lustful, angry thoughts.

If I am being insulted, I will just take it as a retribution for something that I had done in my past life and at the same time train my forbearance.
