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"

Develop a mind of equilibrium. You will always be getting praise and blame, but do not let either affect poise of mind: follow calmness, the absence of pride.

-Srimad Bhagavad Gita "Bhagwad Gita 6.12-15"

Our mind is full of amazing powers but simultaneously, it has numerous disorders and negativities too. Because we are unable to conquer the negativities, we miss out on its marvellous powers as well.

Our biggest problem is the complete contrast in the nature of brain and mind. Majority of the people do not even realize the separate existence of the two. As a result, their entire life gets crumbled and destroyed in the constant friction between their brain and mind.

-Deep Trivedi

The mind exists in a state of “not enough” and so is always greedy for more. When you are identified with mind, you get bored and restless very easily. Boredom means the mind is hungry for more stimulus…it is not satisfied.

-Eckhart Tolle "Eckhart Tolle"

The guru cannot awaken you; all that he can do is to point out what is. The guru can give you words; he can give you an explanation, the symbols of the mind, but the symbol is not the real, and if you are caught in the symbol, you will never find the way.

-J. Krishnamurti "J. Krishnamurti"
