I thought of the discussion in the thread "Negative Emotions, Thoughts and How to Counteract Them" sparked by a quote posted by Joe.
Maybe it can be helpful in the context of this thread, how to productively deal with the emotions rising in connection to what is going on in the world right now, with all what we may experience in our immediate environment and in ourselves as well (and thus may help "out-do" 4D STS in the longer run as they feed on negative emotions that "dock" onto us & which we are then indulging).
Here's the quote for reference:
It seems that this "disease" as it's being mentioned is not ours in the original sense, but alien. It can be connected to the Predator's Mind. Don Juan also mentions, that the Predator's Mind, which is not our mind, is a morose one - being synonymous to "grumpy", "sourly", "bitter".
FWIW

Here's the quote for reference:
"To replace all negative attitudes toward the existing world by a feeling of confidence and love toward the new world which is being born, toward the still unborn child that is the future of mankind. [The Cs recently also said, that there will be a new reality to be explored after chaos passed.]
To arouse in oneself constantly this love of the future of humanity. Every time one observes in oneself some kind of negative attitude, to take this as a reminder that we human beings live on this earth in order to serve, particularly to serve the future.
And to serve with love, with hope, with confidence that it is possible for mankind to be born again.
Such a positive attitude should enter into our behavior, into our speech. But to this have some force, we have to deprive something else. That is, we acknowledge that one can really work against negativity, to take away energies which currently flow into negative thought, postures and feelings, and to form them toward the other.
This is a very hard thing that I am proposing to you because, in all of us, negative habits are so ingrained. [But, a journey of 1000 miles is being accomplished step by step - it just has to be begun with the first step.]
In the very midst of feeling compassion, one finds oneself finding fault, judging.
This is the disease that has overcome mankind, and we are all infected by it. Some very lucky people have escaped this disease, they have some lucky immunity from it.
It is very fortunate to know such people. It is an extraordinary thing to see such rare and healthy souls in the midst of so much that is diseased and distorted.
It is a technical matter. It is not a matter of thinking "it would be nice to be like that". It is a matter of knowing how to bring oneself to that place where our attitudes are under our own control, where it is possible for us to say THIS and not THAT." [A practical approach, guided by knowlege, which is furthered towards acting out the good that one chooses for while avoiding the bad one doesn't want (in the Pauline sense).]
It seems that this "disease" as it's being mentioned is not ours in the original sense, but alien. It can be connected to the Predator's Mind. Don Juan also mentions, that the Predator's Mind, which is not our mind, is a morose one - being synonymous to "grumpy", "sourly", "bitter".
They gave us their mind! Do you hear me? The predators give us their mind, which becomes our mind. The predators’ mind is baroque, contradictory, morose, filled with the fear of being discovered any minute now.
