Sutra 02 — Mind your mind
SUTRA 02 · CONTEMPLATION
MIND BLENDING, MIND BENDING! MIND ENDING.
“MIND yo!ur MIND”
Mind your mind
The wordplay moves from blending and bending the mind toward loosening identification with it. One reading takes the sutra as an invitation to observe thought, rather than accept every thought as a command or a complete account of reality.
A moment to reflect
Notice a recurring thought. Describe it to yourself as a thought you are having, then return to what you are doing.
