Watch Your Mind and You Will Never Fight It

The mind is simply a computer, a tool. It can be used to ponder great thoughts, solve scientific problems and serve humanity. But you, in your lost state, told it to spend its time conjuring up outer solutions for your very personal inner problems. Instead of fighting the mind, just don't participate in it. The minute you stop putting your whole heart and soul into the mind as if it were your savior and protector, you will find yourself behind the mind watching it. That's how you know about your thoughts. You are in there watching them. Once you reach that state, your problems with the mind are over.
