For example, most of us think we are subject to those ideas that we don't have any choice about because the mind is generating them. But that is not the case. The reality is the mind is one of our tools. We are the boss of the mind. We get to tell the mind what to think on its own.”“Conscious breathing means taking conscious control of the breathing. In the same way that we talked about taking conscious control of the mind as a tool, we are now going to the breathing apparatus.”“We are born, we live a life and we die.
