Doubt

DOUBT, INDECISION    [the tshoms] What is indecision? It is to be in two minds about the truth, and its function is to serve as a basis for not becoming involved with postive things. Indecision is the mental event in which one oscillates between two extremes concerning the four truths and the relationship between one's action and its result.

This indecision creates obstacles for everything positive and in particular for the vision of the truth. But if one sees the truth, indecision is overcome and one speaks of applying oneself to getting rid of those preconceptions which can be removed by seeing the truth.
