mind

A mind is a simulation that simulates itself.

Yes: I exist inside my body.I__ not carrying the sun and the moon in my pocket.I don__ want to conquer worlds because I slept badly,And I don__ want to eat the world for breakfast because I have a stomach.Indifferent?No: a son of the earth, who, if he jumps, it__ wrong,A moment in the air that__ not for us,And only happy when his feet hit the ground again,Pow! In reality where nothing__ missing!(6/20/1919)

The more death, the more birth. People are entering, others are exiting. The cry of a baby, the mourning of others. When others cry, the other are laughing and making merry. The world is mingled with sadness, joy, happiness, anger, wealth, poverty, etc.

Even when in the midst of disturbance, the stillness of the mind can offer sanctuary.

The unconscious mind is a vast repository of experiences and associations that sorts things out much faster than the slow-moving conscious mind.

A cheap writer has an expensive thoughts.

Meaning grows in the mind, but the shape and form of the act remains.

Suffering builds character and impels you to penetrate life__ secrets. It__ the path of great artists, great religious leaders, great social reformers. The problem is not suffering per se, but rather our identification with our own ego: our divided, dualistic, cramped view of things. __e are too ego-centered,_ Suzuki tells Cage._ The ego-shell in which we live is the hardest thing to outgrow. We seem to carry it all the time from childhood up to the time we finally pass away.

I keep telling myself sensible things, but I never seem to listen!

Cosmic consciousness is the next level of holistic perception.

Peaceful mind is Masterpiece.

It's always the mind that needs quietening and the heart that needs listening to.

The link between the spirit and the mind is the deep heart".~R. Alan Woods [2012]

Too much time is wasted listening to the noise of the mind - and too little is spent living from the love and power of the heart.

Friendships - and indeed most relationships - are measured in the closeness of hearts, minds and soul ties... not in the distance of physical miles or even the passing of time.

A mind is not weighed by its magnitude, but by the dimensions of its thoughts.

Solve your problems or your problems solve you.

There is no greater prize than a quiet, peaceful mind.
