Don't believe your thoughts. If you believe what you're thinking and act on that, you enable that to keep going...and if you disbelieve your thoughts by pushing away or rejecting, that is a negative form of activity. So what do we do? Start by sitting down and witnessing the way in which you believe.

Sokuzan's dharma talk is inspired by several lines from Trimsatika (Thirty Verses) of Vasubandhu. From one translation:

"As long as consciousness does not see

That subject-object distinctions are simply forms of consciousness

Attachment to twofold grasping will never cease"

Something comes at us like in the form of negativity and rather than just receiving emotions, we tend to “flip it” into something else and look instead at all of the reasons it should or shouldn’t be happening. We miss the opportunity to see reality.
