The mind is the instrument, the flywheel, and the thickest comrade of man. Through it, one can ruin oneself or save oneself. Regulated and controlled, channeled properly it can liberate; wayward and let loose, it can entangle and bind fast.
Once we surrender our mind to Divine Grace completely, we will be taken care of in every way.
Let your aims be common, and your hearts of one accord, and all of you be of one mind, so you may live well together.
To understand the immeasurable, the mind must be extraordinarily quiet, still.
Those who read books cannot understand the teachings and, what’s more, may even go astray. But those who try to observe the things going on in the mind, and always take that which is true in their own minds as their standard; never get muddled.
Win over the ill-natured man by goodness…Make haste in doing good; check your mind from evil; for the mind of him who is slow in doing meritorious actions delights in evil.
