How Can We Protect Ourselves from Harmful Desires?

559Question: How can we work correctly with the desires that distract us from spirituality when even the force of overcoming and coming closer to the group does not help?

Answer: Pray to the Creator so that He will give you the ability to protect yourself from this desire that you consider harmful.

All our desires are from the Creator. Everything that is in us is from the Creator.

So let us find out from Him what is good and what is not good and what we need and what we do not need.

If some thought not directed at the purpose of creation distracts you, leave it, do not try to correct it somehow, and try to distract yourself from it.
