==Reply to your question=.
Thank you for replying to my question quickly. I feel guilty doing simran because i feel as if gods bringing these thoughts to my mind about harming other people.Is god creating these thoughts?Am i in control of my own mind(free will)?Or is god in control of my mind and he creates such thoughts or any thoughts(both positive and negative thoughts)?The reason why i ask this is because people say that god does everything.i also feel guilty to do simran because i feel that maybe god is punishing me for doing bad deeds ,in my past life,and as a consequence, he is punishing me by making me have these thoughts.I am struggling with these thoughts and its hard for me to get these thoughts out of my head.
Question: If we have negative thoughts about harming another person is it okay to do so? Do we have a free will or is it hukam from God that we should harm another person?
Reply: We have free will and accordingly we make numerous choices every few minutes; this is happening all the time and these decisions will result in our "karmas" and our karmas will governs what happens to us in the future. You cannot always control the thought that come to your mind - so if you have bad thoughts, don't blame yourself; it your mind playing tricks. But never follow any bad thoughts that you get in your mind. Your actions are under your control so exercise control and always act in a positive way. When you start acting positively, the "shataan" in the mind will be subdued and you will get less and less negative thoughts.
Live a positive life; do sewa and simran; remember God and less negative thoughts will come to the mind. I hope this short reply helps. Kind regards, Hari Singhtalk 21:22, 11 March 2013 (CDT)
