To think negatively about a wall would bring some harm
upon you because the loss will only be one-sided, whereas
even a single negative thought towards a living being is very

do pratikraman afterwards, the faults will be erased. Therefore,
wherever there is friction, do pratikraman so it comes to an
end.
For those who do not clash with anybody, I guarantee
they will attain liberation (moksha) in three lifetimes. If you
clash, you must do pratikraman. All those clashes will continue
as long as sexual relations continue. Sex is the root cause of
clashes. He who conquers sexual instincts conquers all. Such a
man impresses all who see him.
