Your mind is an instrument, a tool. It is there to be used for a specific task, and when the task is completed, you lay it down. As it is, I would say about 80 to 90 percent of most people's thinking is not only repetitive and useless, but because of its dysfunctional and often negative nature, much of it is also harmful. Observe your mind and you will find this to be true. It causes a serious leakage of vital energy.
Eckhart TolleLearn from nature. See how everything gets accomplished and how the miracle of life unfolds without dissatisfaction or unhappiness.
Eckhart TolleJust as the sun is infinitely brighter than a candle flame, there is infinitely more intelligence in Being than in your mind
Eckhart Tolle
