Jealousy

What is best practice for a person to escape when temporarily swayed by feelings of Jealousy?

I would say, the best practice is to devote the mind to thoughts on higher things. The 9th house indicates a universal perspective, the perfect antidote to thoughts at a lower level like jealousy. Worshipping the God indicated by the 9H will help activate 9H thoughts.

Yes indeed...

The phalasruti says clearly, neither anger, nor jealously, nor avarice, nor degrading thoughts ever beset one who is ever devoted to that Purushothama...

Also you can meditate on the God you like most before sleep every night for 15 to 20 minutes. That will also help. But before that have a bath and wear washed clothes. Sit before the idol or picture and close your eyes and meditate. Initially other thoughts will intervene but slowly they will start to disappear.
You may probably dislike many but still even if you happen to meet them on the way, it will not affect you provided you follow as above.

Thank you Ramanan Sir. But unfortunately it got rejected due to multiple submission. But I submitted only once-may be some system problem. Regards.
