How do you remove thoughts?

Answer 1

A thought, or a group of thoughts, may be good or evil; and to remove them both, is both a lie, and impossible. So, to not obey a right thought, is to deny yourself good; and to remove a negative thought without judgment, (judging without respect or piety), is to love deception.

Now these things must come first, and in the doing of them is the knowledge of how to remove thoughts; this knowledge also can be used to your undoing. Also, don't be afraid of undergoing some pain during this walk, because you will.

But if you would understand, it is in the doing of judgment against those thoughts: some people will not do judgment, and wither away; and some will do judgment, and go against it to the damming of their souls; and some will do judgment, and do right by it, and find peace with God.
