Mind can control itself by just choosing to stop the self-talking of the ego or self. When mind controls itself, so to speak, all the thinking that is generating these inner experiences of desire and fantasy will go away. Mind can control itself with a simple method. Just start to say a phrase like: " I love all life, " or just, 'stop, stop, stop " and as long as you as mind are willing to continue this chosen self-talk, the self-talling words that create the feelings of suffering will subside, or cannot arise, because mind speaks, thinks, only one thing at a time. As long as mind chooses the self-talking words, the self-talking thinking cannot proceed. So take a break from your painful thoughts and substitute, " Love is my nature " or I AM ALL, and as longs as you can continue that, it will be still inside with no experience of sufferring. Try it, it works. And just remember, that talking to me is just talking to yourself. Larry Epston www.epston.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
