An inspiration from Amma’s ideas about ‘mind’.
We have trees and together they are called forests. We have drops of water and streams that become rivers. Similarly, we have thoughts that become ‘mind’. And our mind gets caught up in such thoughts. Meditation helps us disentangle ourselves from such obstructions.
At times we have to ‘walk away’ from such entanglements of the mind because they can weigh us down like an anchor when we are trying to free our thoughts and go away from the shoreline into the depths of peaceful contemplation.
