Don’t let your mind bully your body into believing it must carry the burden of its worries.
-Scriptures "Astrid Alauda"
The empires of the future are the empires of the mind.

DNA and Genes influence your body, not your mind.
-Deep Trivedi
Our 'mind' is as old as the existence; whereas our brain is of this birth. Hence, the thinking of mind is boundless whereas in the case of brain, it is limited. Since there is no possibility of unanimity of action between the two, we end up living in confusion.
-Deep Trivedi

A man, who realises the potential of his mind by means of introspection and contemplation, he does not lack self-confidence. He has control over his mind and he is able to realise its full potential
-Vedas "Sama Veda"
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.
-Ramana Maharshi "Ramana Maharshi"
Only the person who knows how to strike a balance of mind can be happy and
successful in life. Sin - virtue, good - bad are the teachings which disturb the
equilibrium of our mind and unfortunately, these are the teachings which our
religious gurus and scriptures are giving us in abundance. As a result, only one
among millions is able to be happy and successful and that too, he who escapes
their clutches.
-Deep Trivedi
If one speaks or acts with pure mind, because of that happiness follows one, even as one’s shadow that never leaves.
-Dhammapada "Dhammapada 1-2"
To understand the immeasurable, the mind must be extraordinarily quiet, still.
-J. Krishnamurti "J. Krishnamurti"
