Don’t let your mind bully your body into believing it must carry the burden of its worries.

-Scriptures "Astrid Alauda"

No matter how much ever your brain understands, ultimately it is the "mind" that needs to be transformed. Because of wrong decisions being taken in an enraged state of mind, the brain may decide n-number of times not to get angry again, yet, as soon as there is an inkling of anger in the mind, you will invariably end up being angry.

-Deep Trivedi

If the mind becomes balanced and detached, and comes to dwell in its own true home, imbued with the love of God, then it enjoys the essence of supreme spiritual wisdom; it shall never feel hunger again.

-Sri Guru Granth Sahib "Sri Guru Granth Sahib"

It is the Path of the Good Mind which Thou hast manifested to me, O Ahura! Whereby the welldoers, in accordance with the teaching of the Spiritual Guides, acting in harmony with Truth alone, Shall pass onward to the assigned reward of which Thou art the bestower, O Mazda! This precious reward of Thine, O Mazda, Thou givest by way of the Good Mind, Thou givest to those who perform actions through knowledge and pure thought; who attempt for the progress and development of the world; fulfil God’s desire and try for the progress of God’s Will through truth and righteousness.

-Scriptures "Yasna 34, Verse 13-14"

Now you worship His Form, you repeat His name; ignoring His orders. Without practicing the discipline laid down by Rama to purify the mind, all else is mere show, empty rituals.

-Sathya Sai Baba "Sri Sathya Sai Baba"

DNA and Genes influence your body, not your mind.

-Deep Trivedi

Slowly and steadily cleanse the mind; sharpen the intellect, purify the senses, and win grace.

-Vedas "Atharva Veda"

'Mind' not only understands all the mysteries of existence but can also reveal their influence, in the life of any individual of this world with the precision of a clock... But then it is difficult to understand that instead of delving into our mind, what sort of trivial tasks have we entangled ourselves in?

-Deep Trivedi

Sin - virtue, respect - disrespect, good - bad, success - failure, are all divisions created by the brain. At the level of mind, they are nothing but useless notions.

-Deep Trivedi

Other than our 'mind', what is it that we have, which we can call our own? Everything else is gifted by nature and made usable by science. At the same time, if you talk of joy of mind, it lies in "art". But then it is difficult to understand that in this process, where do we feel the need for these 'so-called religions'?
