A large percentage of what is happening in the mind is just mental diarrhea - running compulsively, all the time.

Your thoughts and emotions are the drama that you create in your mind. You must be able to direct it the way you wish

Irritation, anger, hate, and rage are just progressions. If you feel the mildest sense of irritation, that’s what you need to work on.

The moment you disidentify yourself from everything, the mind will become still.  

When you are truly meditative, there is no time and space for you. Time and space are consequences of the mind.
