Mind

The mind is not controlled, but regulated. The first step is the practice of meditation, where the mind is put upon a specified exercise. I call it an exercise because the mind is brought to bear upon a single subject, and all intruding or disturbing thoughts are allowed to drop off by non-attention. Non-attention is the greatest weapon to fight thoughts because, my Master says, thoughts without our attention have no power. So, at a single stroke, in meditation, "by throwing one stone we get two fruits." We train the mind to hold one thought while simultaneously excluding all unnecessary thoughts.
