Even your thoughts are in your control🔗

Understand: mind is an action! It is not a solid thing as you imagine. It is changing every moment – like walking or talking!

Suppose you are walking.

If you don't want to walk, what do you do?

You just stop walking, that's all!

If you are talking, and you don't want to talk, what do you do?

You just stop talking and remain in silence.

In the same way, mind is also an action. If you don't want to 'do' it, don't do it, that's all! When you can stop walking, stop talking, why not stop thinking?

But we never believe that we can stop our thoughts when we want! Especially the 'professional seekers' - they come and tell me, 'No, no, no! I have tried for years! Controlling the mind is impossible!'

Please understand, mind is a very subtle action of yours. YOU are doing it. Is there anybody else sitting inside you and doing it? No! It is YOU who is doing it. When it is you who is doing it, why can't you change the flow of thoughts, or stop them at your will?

So look in a little. It needs just a little shift in the approach, a little shift in the attitude, a little shift in the understanding – that's all. Empower yourself with this one understanding.

• v Write down all the areas of your life where you shrink from expressing yourself fully eg. in a relationship
• v For each of these areas, write down the thoughts you have, the words you utter and the actions you take.
• v Identify where you are not taking responsibility for that aspect of your life; where you are waiting for the external situation to change instead
• v Choose any one area and declare your responsibility for creating that new situation. Identify what has to change for that to happen.
  • v For one week, follow up with yourself and record your progress.

Enriching is you taking responsibility, with integrity and authenticity that you are committed to continuously enriching, which is expanding life in and around you!
