of the body, must be trained to function.
With intense practice, the hands learn
the skill to use a pen, to write.
A child will stumble, several times,
before it learns to walk with confidence.
In the same way, you must
exert control on the mind
by not allowing it to stray,
or else you, My dears, will never know peace.
The mind is like a camera
that will capture all that the
body encounters and will
develop each moment into
a series of thoughts that it stores in its bank.
The mind continues to function,
even when the body remains inactive,
replaying sporadic thoughts of that
which it has already experienced
and stored in its memory.
It is like an automatic replay
button that plays without your
own knowledge, allowing you to
experience several unhappy
incidents of the past or even
your imaginary worries of the future.
