Our thinking mind…

June 14th, 2008 by Locke in Daily Life, Meditation, Spiritual Journey

Our minds are always in intense activity. This is not so good.

We should know how to give up our thinking mind, our busy mind.

In order to go beyond our thinking faculty, it is necessary to have a firm conviction in the illusion of our mind.

When we  just observe the illusion we begin to feel the calm, peaceful mind.

When we start to cope with it we will be involved in illusion.
