Mind is consciousness, which has limitations. We are originally unlimited and perfect. Later on we take on limitations and become the mind…There is no mind to control if you realise the self. The mind having vanished, the self shines forth.

He is the true hero who fights to protect the helpless; though cut limb from limb, flees not the field.
