[QUOTE="spnadmin, post: 69986, member: 35"] Sikh80 ji A thought that comes and goes with me. When we are so very intense about "controlling our mind"-- having to work so deliberately at it, are we not still under the control of "mind?" Is our mind trying to control our mind (itself). Which suggests that we are still trapped in duality. The shabads may be telling us to give up control. Intuitive ease an alternative.
