| This means that karma and images make a vicious circle? ANSWER: Of course. If you will reread | 41 IMAGES: THE DAMAGE THEY DO |
| is actually eros. You find yourself in a vicious circle and think that marriage is a hopeless | 44 THE FORCES OF LOVE, EROS, AND SEX |
| abstain from it. Thus one of those oft-mentioned vicious circles came into existence. Because of the belief | 44 THE FORCES OF LOVE, EROS, AND SEX |

| peace. Be blessed. Be in God. 50. THE VICIOUS CIRCLE Greetings, my dearest friends. God bless this | 50 THE VICIOUS CIRCLE |
| you. Tonight I shall discuss one of the vicious circles that is very common among human beings | 50 THE VICIOUS CIRCLE |
| to the level of your emotions where this vicious circle exists. Even if you are aware of | 50 THE VICIOUS CIRCLE |
| you are aware of some parts of the vicious circle, use these words to search for all | 50 THE VICIOUS CIRCLE |
| you consciously think and react according to the vicious circle; realize that it is hidden. It will | 50 THE VICIOUS CIRCLE |
| a certain limited logic of its own. The vicious circle that is my subject tonight begins in | 50 THE VICIOUS CIRCLE |
| aggression. This is the second part of the vicious circle. The need for love that cannot be | 50 THE VICIOUS CIRCLE |
| also present. A further chain reaction in this vicious circle is the personality's split in its desire | 50 THE VICIOUS CIRCLE |
| split between love and hate, which started the vicious circle, causes further splits, as you can see | 50 THE VICIOUS CIRCLE |
| inferiority feelings. You have to uncover the whole vicious circle and see its lack of reason; you | 50 THE VICIOUS CIRCLE |
| and inferiority serve to further close the great vicious circle. Again, your unconscious little voice argues, I | 50 THE VICIOUS CIRCLE |
| guilt becomes -- all ensuing points in the vicious circle become worse and worse as life goes | 50 THE VICIOUS CIRCLE |
| Remember that the sick personality in which this vicious circle is strong can never take that risk | 50 THE VICIOUS CIRCLE |
| you give are unconsciously based on the great vicious circle, you can never receive love in return | 50 THE VICIOUS CIRCLE |
| you cannot identify the various points of the vicious circle in your emotions, the existence of the | 50 THE VICIOUS CIRCLE |
| become aware, point by point, of the great vicious circle. After the emotions have come to the | 50 THE VICIOUS CIRCLE |
| will help you further to break your personal vicious circle. Thus you will become free and independent | 50 THE VICIOUS CIRCLE |
| aims. So, my dear friends, work through this vicious circle and experience how it is active in | 50 THE VICIOUS CIRCLE |
| no age limit, and cease only when the vicious circle is made conscious. Some people may develop | 50 THE VICIOUS CIRCLE |
| time in connection with one of the fundamental vicious circles in the human being. When a breakdown | 51 IMPORTANCE OF FORMING INDEPENDENT OPINIONS |
| to bring you unfavorable results, which create a vicious circle as you rebel even more strongly against | 51 IMPORTANCE OF FORMING INDEPENDENT OPINIONS |
| going on in this way you create a vicious circle: the more you hold opinions not your | 51 IMPORTANCE OF FORMING INDEPENDENT OPINIONS |
| can how every wrong inner condition creates a vicious circle, apart from the great vicious circle I | 51 IMPORTANCE OF FORMING INDEPENDENT OPINIONS |
| creates a vicious circle, apart from the great vicious circle I discussed last time. The only way | 51 IMPORTANCE OF FORMING INDEPENDENT OPINIONS |
| -- and thus begin to break this particular vicious circle. On the other hand, if you arrive | 51 IMPORTANCE OF FORMING INDEPENDENT OPINIONS |
| general guilt feeling that arises from the main vicious circle. Hence, you are compelled to have an | 51 IMPORTANCE OF FORMING INDEPENDENT OPINIONS |
| hinders you in coming out of your own vicious circle. The guiltier you feel about possible wrongs | 52 THE GOD-IMAGE |
| dissolution of this -- and all other -- vicious circles you may be caught in. Understand that | 52 THE GOD-IMAGE |
| yourself too much. In the lecture on the vicious circle, I told you about your guilts, about | 53 SELF-LOVE |
| not before. Until then, you cannot break your vicious circle. But at the breaking point -- once | 53 SELF-LOVE |
| integrate sexuality with love feelings. This creates a vicious circle. The more the existence of sexuality is | 54 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| are running around in one of those famous vicious circles: the wrong motive makes you feel even | 56 CAPACITY TO WISH -- HEALTHY AND UNHEALTHY MOTIVES IN DESIRE |
| of yourself, deep in your soul. Hence a vicious circle, always built on a false premise, is | 57 THE MASS IMAGE OF SELF-IMPORTANCE |
| existence of these two images together causes a vicious circle. One current is: I need to be | 57 THE MASS IMAGE OF SELF-IMPORTANCE |
| by looking away from it. Thus the following vicious circle is created: the guiltier you feel, the | 57 THE MASS IMAGE OF SELF-IMPORTANCE |
| blames his or her surroundings. So a particular vicious circle comes into existence, which goes like this | 58 THE DESIRE FOR HAPPINESS AND THE DESIRE FOR UNHAPPINESS |
| wishes, which they constantly inflict upon me. The vicious circle works like this in one direction: I | 58 THE DESIRE FOR HAPPINESS AND THE DESIRE FOR UNHAPPINESS |
| mentioned, particularly in one lecture about the basic vicious circle, that self-punishment and self-destructiveness are very strong | 58 THE DESIRE FOR HAPPINESS AND THE DESIRE FOR UNHAPPINESS |
| what I have told you tonight, the basic vicious circle will become clearer and more understandable to | 58 THE DESIRE FOR HAPPINESS AND THE DESIRE FOR UNHAPPINESS |
| people involved, create very unfavorable chain reactions and vicious circles. Not only does the very same principle | 65 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| can be loved and will be loved. The vicious circle would be broken. Now, what is this | 69 THE FOLLY OF WATCHING FOR RESULTS WHILE ON THE PATH; THE VALID DESIRE TO BE LOVED |
| The effort to maintain your illusions causes many vicious circles and chain reactions. As you learn to | 71 REALITY AND ILLUSION CONCENTRATION EXERCISES |
| and unfair demands. Thus you are in a vicious circle. Disapproval strikes a chord in you because | 71 REALITY AND ILLUSION CONCENTRATION EXERCISES |
| to it. The escape is part of a vicious circle. The reality is so bleak precisely because | 71 REALITY AND ILLUSION CONCENTRATION EXERCISES |
| fantasies, the more you spin around this unending vicious circle. For how can reality ever fit into | 71 REALITY AND ILLUSION CONCENTRATION EXERCISES |
| benign chain-reaction is set in motion, replacing the vicious circle that existed before. Intuition is the highest | 72 THE FEAR OF LOVING |
| it, for this is a chain reaction, a vicious circle. It is useful to start by finding | 73 COMPULSION TO RECREATE AND OVERCOME CHILDHOOD HURTS |
| perceive reality, you begin to break the repetitive vicious circle. As you truly perceive such a mutual | 73 COMPULSION TO RECREATE AND OVERCOME CHILDHOOD HURTS |
| In unawareness, two people will set up a vicious circle operating from one to the other, and | 74 CONFUSIONS AND HAZY MOTIVATIONS |
| with rejection in such a way that the vicious circle between you will be avoided. That is | 76 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS (Compiled from Private Sessions and Earlier Lectures) |

| It is very important to see how this vicious circle works. But this cannot be done until | 83 THE IDEALIZED SELF-IMAGE |
| people involve themselves more and more in a vicious circle. Unaware that the very solution they undertake | 84 LOVE, POWER, SERENITY AS DIVINE ATTRIBUTES AND AS DISTORTIONS |
| pleasure, and ecstasy. So another one of these vicious circles comes into existence. The more one is | 84 LOVE, POWER, SERENITY AS DIVINE ATTRIBUTES AND AS DISTORTIONS |
| find yourself in another one of those unfortunate vicious circles. True safety comes from seeing the people | 85 DISTORTIONS OF THE INSTINCTS OF SELF-PRESERVATION AND PROCREATION |
| more dependent and helpless -- and so the vicious circle continues in atoning for your rebellion against | 88 RELIGION: TRUE AND FALSE |
| nothing to hold on to. This creates another vicious circle. In other words, if you do not | 90 MORALIZING -- DISPROPORTIONATE REACTIONS -- NEEDS |
| into a benign circle, after having broken a vicious one. QUESTION: What is the difference between moralizing | 90 MORALIZING -- DISPROPORTIONATE REACTIONS -- NEEDS |
| you find yourself trapped, caught in your own vicious circle of continuing to do what is against | 92 REPRESSED NEEDS - RELINQUISHING BLIND NEEDS - PRIMARY AND SECONDARY REACTIONS |
| to experience reality. This, in turn, creates many vicious circles, which then make it even more difficult | 98 WISHFUL DAYDREAMS |
| to defend yourself more, and two full- fledged vicious circles are set into motion. One is a | 101 THE DEFENSE |
| circles are set into motion. One is a vicious circle within yourself, and the other a vicious | 101 THE DEFENSE |
| vicious circle within yourself, and the other a vicious circle between yourself and others, which triggers your | 101 THE DEFENSE |
| you: the more you are caught in a vicious circle, the more difficult it is to break | 102 THE SEVEN CARDINAL SINS |
| of self-deception and pretense which brings you into vicious circles and inner conflicts destroying your happiness and | 116 REACHING THE SPIRITUAL CENTER-STRUGGLE BETWEEN LOWER SELF AND SUPERIMPOSED CONSCIENCE |
| conscience. You find yourself in one of those vicious circles we have so often mentioned. As long | 116 REACHING THE SPIRITUAL CENTER-STRUGGLE BETWEEN LOWER SELF AND SUPERIMPOSED CONSCIENCE |
| known, the less it is feared. Although a vicious circle exists in which fear dulls the senses | 130 FINDING TRUE ABUNDANCE BY GOING THROUGH YOUR FEAR |
| exists in which fear dulls the senses, every vicious circle can be broken. You may argue that | 130 FINDING TRUE ABUNDANCE BY GOING THROUGH YOUR FEAR |
| at least partially, are destructive and malignant. This vicious circle between life's malignancy and one's need to | 138 THE HUMAN PREDICAMENT OF DESIRE FOR, AND FEAR OF, CLOSENESS |
| give you greater strength to come out of vicious circles and self-generating negative attitudes and will make | 139 DEADENING OF THE LIVE CENTER THROUGH MISINTERPRETATION OF REALITY |
| of cycles or circles -- whether benign or vicious -- is always the principle of self-perpetuation. Autonomy | 140 CONFLICT OF POSITIVE VERSUS NEGATIVE ORIENTED PLEASURE AS THE ORIGIN OF PAIN |
| cling to what you know. This creates a vicious circle, in that the dualistic rules and precepts | 143 UNITY AND DUALITY |
| other person's inner problem is seen as interacting vicious circles. When you truly realize that the situation | 148 POSITIVITY AND NEGATIVITY: ONE ENERGY CURRENT |
| The connection between hurt and pleasure engenders a vicious circle. The more painfully the pleasure principle of | 149 COSMIC PULL TOWARD UNION -- FRUSTRATION |
| the tension. Opposition grows, conflict increases, and the vicious circle continues. The evolutionary problem for every single | 149 COSMIC PULL TOWARD UNION -- FRUSTRATION |
| is therefore to deeply comprehend and experience this vicious circle without misjudging the negative connection between contact | 149 COSMIC PULL TOWARD UNION -- FRUSTRATION |
| to a state of bliss. Here is the vicious circle: The more you sell out, the less | 150 SELF-LIKING: THE CONDITION FOR UNIVERSAL STATE OF BLISS |
| betray your truth. One can escape from the vicious circle only by working on a path of | 150 SELF-LIKING: THE CONDITION FOR UNIVERSAL STATE OF BLISS |
| dare not ever relinquish. You get into a vicious circle: the more you press in the wrong | 153 THE SELF-REGULATING NATURE OF INVOLUNTARY PROCESSES |
| decrease it, thereby getting deeper involved in the vicious circle. The only way to reverse it is | 153 THE SELF-REGULATING NATURE OF INVOLUNTARY PROCESSES |
| fundamental levels. When people are involved in the vicious circle, it is because they base certain assumptions | 153 THE SELF-REGULATING NATURE OF INVOLUNTARY PROCESSES |
| others. Here, again, is one of those famous vicious circles that result from every error instituted in | 155 FEAR OF SELF -- GIVING AND RECEIVING |
| itself. Now let us go back to the vicious circle, which perpetuates itself when a healthy procedure | 155 FEAR OF SELF -- GIVING AND RECEIVING |
| on meeting what is feared. Thus in the vicious circle the love forces are feared because they | 155 FEAR OF SELF -- GIVING AND RECEIVING |
| human tragedy, for you thus move into a vicious circle. Whenever a misconception is accepted as truth | 157 INFINITE POSSIBILITIES OF EXPERIENCE HINDERED BY EMOTIONAL DEPENDENCY |
| a misconception is accepted as truth, immediately a vicious circle comes into being paralyzing the pleasure forces | 157 INFINITE POSSIBILITIES OF EXPERIENCE HINDERED BY EMOTIONAL DEPENDENCY |
| and powers of your adult state? The particular vicious circle I mentioned before is this: When you | 157 INFINITE POSSIBILITIES OF EXPERIENCE HINDERED BY EMOTIONAL DEPENDENCY |
| for their own benefit and delight. Thus the vicious circle continues. The continued frustration, which you believe | 157 INFINITE POSSIBILITIES OF EXPERIENCE HINDERED BY EMOTIONAL DEPENDENCY |
| word of truth to you. The more this vicious circle goes on, the less pleasure remains in | 157 INFINITE POSSIBILITIES OF EXPERIENCE HINDERED BY EMOTIONAL DEPENDENCY |
| This is yet another aspect of the same vicious circle. The less you see yourself as responsible | 157 INFINITE POSSIBILITIES OF EXPERIENCE HINDERED BY EMOTIONAL DEPENDENCY |
| is much too limited to comprehend this. A vicious circle comes into existence when the ego is | 158 THE EGO'S COOPERATION WITH OR OBSTRUCTION OF THE REAL SELF |
| against you. This is one of the important vicious circles you stubbornly refuse to change into a | 159 LIFE MANIFESTATION REFLECTS DUALISTIC ILLUSION |
| benign, good and wise. It is also destructive, vicious, evil and stupid. This does not make it | 159 LIFE MANIFESTATION REFLECTS DUALISTIC ILLUSION |
| complaining and feeling victimized you are in a vicious circle. The destructive projections and blaming of others | 161 UNCONSCIOUS NEGATIVITY ENDANGERS SURRENDER OF EGO TO INVOLUNTARY PROCESSES |
| run around in circles, and it becomes a vicious circle, because the less life gives you as | 166 PERCEIVING, REACTING, EXPRESSING |
| and inner conflict, which in turn create a vicious circle. An examination of any inner problem and | 171 SPIRITUAL LAWS |
| the above-mentioned conflict, which led to the following vicious circle: the more he tries to be masculine | 171 SPIRITUAL LAWS |
| of delight in every way, you continue a vicious circle. The result must be frustration and limitation | 172 THE LIFE ENERGY CENTERS |
| to represent your essence. This is indeed a vicious circle, for true self-esteem can, of course, come | 174 SELF-ESTEEM |
| is the case, you remain trapped in a vicious circle. In order to come out of this | 174 SELF-ESTEEM |
| negative thoughts. See yourself brooding in the same vicious circles; see yourself almost willfully pursuing the same | 175 CONSCIOUSNESS: FASCINATION WITH CREATION |
| a person becomes involved with any number of vicious circles simultaneously, which seem difficult to break. It | 176 OVERCOMING NEGATIVITY |
| must find a way to break through the vicious circle in which you are caught, which goes | 177 PLEASURE -- THE FULL PULSATION OF LIFE |
| makes you inordinately frightened of it. So the vicious circle continues. The fear induces a cramp that | 182 PROCESS OF MEDITATION (MEDITATION FOR THREE VOICES: EGO, LOWER SELF, HIGHER SELF) |
| that depresses you even more. This becomes a vicious circle. The first depression -- or fear, or | 183 THE SPIRITUAL MEANING OF CRISIS |
| depressed will be set off in the self-perpetuating vicious circle. The consciousness of the person becomes more | 183 THE SPIRITUAL MEANING OF CRISIS |
| finds a breaking point. It avoids the many vicious circles within the human psyche and in relationships | 183 THE SPIRITUAL MEANING OF CRISIS |
| secret cheating and self-rejection exist. Within the larger vicious circle, a smaller ingrown one is then at | 187 (THE WAY TO HANDLE) ALTERNATION OF EXPANSIVE AND CONTRACTING STATES |
| is the closed, contracted state. Thus a larger vicious circle becomes a self-perpetuating force in your life | 187 (THE WAY TO HANDLE) ALTERNATION OF EXPANSIVE AND CONTRACTING STATES |
| God. To find the key to breaking this vicious circle, the conscious volitional self must make a | 187 (THE WAY TO HANDLE) ALTERNATION OF EXPANSIVE AND CONTRACTING STATES |
| causes it, you must remain trapped in the vicious circle I described. Thus, the first step out | 187 (THE WAY TO HANDLE) ALTERNATION OF EXPANSIVE AND CONTRACTING STATES |
| you must learn in order to break the vicious circle is to observe your own contracting movement | 187 (THE WAY TO HANDLE) ALTERNATION OF EXPANSIVE AND CONTRACTING STATES |
| of feelings, thoughts and attitudes. You create the vicious circle we are discussing. A dearth of good | 187 (THE WAY TO HANDLE) ALTERNATION OF EXPANSIVE AND CONTRACTING STATES |
| Hidden guilt is devastating, because it creates a vicious circle by itself that maintains the destructiveness. The | 188 AFFECTING AND BEING AFFECTED |
| are the two extremes which lead to a vicious circle. But do you not have other options | 189 SELF-IDENTIFICATION DETERMINED THROUGH STAGES OF CONSCIOUSNESS |
| becomes distorted, it will form part of a vicious circle, from which it is always difficult to | 191 INNER AND OUTER EXPERIENCE |
| difficult to extricate oneself. Another part of the vicious circle is the denied anger and rage for | 191 INNER AND OUTER EXPERIENCE |
| see-saw of submission and rebellion, which is another vicious circle. You submit to another's equally insatiable, unreasonable | 191 INNER AND OUTER EXPERIENCE |
| spurious, limited results, and doubt will close the vicious circle by reinforcing the withholding of commitment. Because | 192 REAL AND FALSE NEEDS |
| one's sense of deprivation, so that a continuous vicious circle seems to entrap the person in a | 192 REAL AND FALSE NEEDS |
| with it. All repression and all hiding create vicious circles and negative chain reactions: the false needs | 192 REAL AND FALSE NEEDS |
| channels affect all other levels. They always create vicious circles which entrap you in hopeless situations. It | 193 RÉSUMÉ OF THE BASIC PRINCIPLES OF THE PATHWORK: ITS AIM AND PROCESS |
| that as long as you move within a vicious circle there is no hope. But the moment | 193 RÉSUMÉ OF THE BASIC PRINCIPLES OF THE PATHWORK: ITS AIM AND PROCESS |
| there is no hope. But the moment the vicious circle is broken, you are liberated from the | 193 RÉSUMÉ OF THE BASIC PRINCIPLES OF THE PATHWORK: ITS AIM AND PROCESS |
| your mental attitudes and behavior which create a vicious circle. This always means to basically change a | 193 RÉSUMÉ OF THE BASIC PRINCIPLES OF THE PATHWORK: ITS AIM AND PROCESS |
| in what way it leads you into a vicious circle. You need to ask, How does this | 193 RÉSUMÉ OF THE BASIC PRINCIPLES OF THE PATHWORK: ITS AIM AND PROCESS |

| Here you have the choice of either a vicious or a benign circle. The vicious circle is | 194 MEDITATION: LAWS AND VARIOUS APPROACHES-SUMMARY (MEDITATION AS POSITIVE LIFE CREATION) |
| either a vicious or a benign circle. The vicious circle is: If I unconsciously hold back and | 194 MEDITATION: LAWS AND VARIOUS APPROACHES-SUMMARY (MEDITATION AS POSITIVE LIFE CREATION) |
| are responsible for your unfulfillment. And so the vicious circle continues. Some of you have a momentary | 196 COMMITMENT: CAUSE AND EFFECT |
| caught in one of the most tragic of vicious circles: because you imagine that you cannot face | 201 DEMAGNETIZING NEGATIVE FORCE FIELDS -- PAIN OF GUILT |
| How are you ever going to break the vicious circle unless you use this key? Go into | 201 DEMAGNETIZING NEGATIVE FORCE FIELDS -- PAIN OF GUILT |

| How can you ever get out of the vicious circle and the bind that you are caught | 209 THE ROSCOE LECTURE: INSPIRATION FOR THE PATHWORK CENTER |

| Once again we can observe two circles, one vicious, the other benign. When you stay in fear | 212 CLAIMING THE TOTAL CAPACITY FOR GREATNESS |

| the vicious circle continues. As you transform the vicious circle into a benign circle, almost inadvertently you | 212 CLAIMING THE TOTAL CAPACITY FOR GREATNESS |
| a few years the principle of benign and vicious circles of human attitudes, which is only a | 214 PSYCHIC NUCLEAR POINTS |
| principle I explain here. Wherever you discover a vicious circle within your psychic system you feel caught | 214 PSYCHIC NUCLEAR POINTS |
| call the breaking point, where you transform the vicious circle into a benign circle by changing the | 214 PSYCHIC NUCLEAR POINTS |
| breaking point I mentioned in connection with the vicious circles. The latter is a deliberately sought measure | 214 PSYCHIC NUCLEAR POINTS |
| this. Many explosions and re-formations of the same vicious circle must ultimately come to the point of | 214 PSYCHIC NUCLEAR POINTS |
| is an ongoing chain reaction -- really a vicious circle. You may start out with the concept | 221 FAITH AND DOUBT IN TRUTH OR DISTORTION |
| not be fulfilled in a real sense. A vicious circle was established as you strove to get | 224 CREATIVE EMPTINESS |
| a fulfillment that was previously quite impossible. Whatever vicious circles used to confine him will now turn | 229 WOMAN AND MAN IN THE NEW AGE |
| a game then reinforces the negative belief. The vicious circle accelerates, and you find it ever more | 236 THE SUPERSTITION OF PESSIMISM |
| move and live fully. So we have a vicious circle here: because you fear the movement and | 241 DYNAMICS OF MOVEMENT AND RESISTANCE TO ITS NATURE |
| all life. Obviously, this leads to the inevitable vicious circle: If life is meaningless, all you can | 244 BE IN THE WORLD BUT NOT OF THE WORLD -- THE EVIL OF INERTIA |
| more meaningless all life will appear. Thus the vicious circle continues. Still, many of you have made | 244 BE IN THE WORLD BUT NOT OF THE WORLD -- THE EVIL OF INERTIA |

| is a cyclic process, leading to benign or vicious circles. A fuller understanding will take you to | 249 THE PAIN OF INJUSTICE -- COSMIC RECORDS OF ALL EVENTS, DEEDS, EXPRESSIONS |
| pain. These two kinds of pain create a vicious circle. Nevertheless, they are two entirely different kinds | 249 THE PAIN OF INJUSTICE -- COSMIC RECORDS OF ALL EVENTS, DEEDS, EXPRESSIONS |
| each other as the sequential emotions within a vicious or a benign circle are different, even though | 249 THE PAIN OF INJUSTICE -- COSMIC RECORDS OF ALL EVENTS, DEEDS, EXPRESSIONS |
