-Eckhart Tolle "Eckhart Tolle"
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'?
-Deep Trivedi

-A Spiritual Leader "Buddhadasa Bhikkhu"
A man, who realises the potential of his mind by means of introspection and contemplation, does not lack self-confidence. He has control over his mind and he is able to realise its full potential.

Delusion is a sort of demonic force. People’s original mind is pure but it becomes perverted due to delusion and other karmas.

Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that you may prove what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.
-Bible "Romans 12.2"
The despair, anger, worries, frustration, etc. hidden in your mind can only be
eliminated by understanding the "science of mind".
