Directing Your Mind


Now let’s spend a few words talking about “thoughts”. Thinking – all the time – is a characteristic of the mind and no-one is able to “not” think (unless you are an exceptional meditator who is capable of reaching superior states of mental silence). A normal mind is continuously active, it never stops. Thoughts are things that are born, exist, develop and often digress, in a never-ending flow of  unspoken, but absolutely real words. Here a question arises, that you should ask yourself, “Am I in control of my thoughts?”. Analyze how your mind works, because such work does not develop in the same way for everybody. Try and see if you are able to lead your thoughts in the direction you want, or if you are unable to eliminate or just minimize nagging, annoying, tormenting thoughts. It's a useful exercise.
