Will there be karma from unwholesome thoughts with no intention and action? How do we treat such unwholesome thoughts? Do we observe the thought or do we suppress it?

My understanding is there's karma for unwholesome thoughts. However it is lighter compare with unwholesome actions. We observe the thoughts and let it go. There's a Buddhist saying : 不怕念起,只怕觉迟. It means it's ok that thought arises but we must be aware of it. Not afraid to have thoughts but afraid that we do not realise them as unwholesome thoughts and let them continue to be train of thoughts.
