The Mind

"You have three minds and two hemispheres. The negative mind first picks up the thought and tells you what danger there is in it. The positive mind tells you what you can make out of it. The neutral mind weighs all the pros and cons of it, the longitude and latitude, and offers solutions."

"The power to cut the intellect’s unwanted thoughts is what the meditative mind is. Your power as an individual is your power to cut the intellect’s thoughts…You think all the time. You don’t stop thinking, but you can cut it. When in this way, negative is cut with a vertical line, it becomes positive, it becomes a ‘plus.’ Finally your mind becomes habitual to becoming positive and that makes you saintly."

– SSS Harbhajan Singh Khalsa (Yogi Bhajan)

   “Let the remembrance of death be the patched coat you wear, let the purity of virginity be your way in the world, and let faith in the Lord be your walking stick.

   See the brotherhood of all mankind as the highest order of Yogis; conquer your own mind, and conquer the world.

   I bow to Him, I humbly bow.

   The Primal One, the Pure Light, without beginning, without end. Throughout all the ages, He is One and the Same.”

   – Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji
