“Most of the time we are not in control of ourselves. Our mind is always distracted with something – our enemies, our lovers, our friends, hope and fear, attachment, aggression – there is always something. The world controls our minds; we have little control over it.
Even though the real essence of mind is not rigid, our mind has become rigid because of our basic insecurity. But we can train our mind.
