Controlling the mind/letting go

[Guest guest]

My two cents: In yoga meditation, you don't try to control the mind as

much as you let stray, negative, and/or obsessive thoughts simply roll

away like water on a non-porous surface. All you do is to look at the

thoughts popping to your mind, then you ask yourself if they are

useful, productive, and constructive--and if they aren't you let go of

them. If you fight them, it'll become virtually impossible to let go.

The attempt to repress thoughts forms attachment and additional

negative and obsessive thought patterns.

 

Love & light,
