On Being Lost to the Mind - A Minute Meditation by Dhyan Vimal

Being lost to the mind is to be lost to everything else. One of the truth about being lost to the mind is to reject everything outside of itself, to use everything only to confirm the mind. And this is a kind of an arrogance. Where what I think and what I am and what I hallucinate is the only reality, I will never allow anything outside of it to be. Most all only look for something outside of it to confirm it. No, by this one isolates, one is violent to oneself and violent to everyone. Being aware of this, one may step into what is more than the mind.
