Anything that you respond to is a product of your mind.
It is your mind that becomes angry.
It is your mind that becomes stubborn.
It is your mind that wants to get even.
It is your mind that is hurt.
It is your mind that becomes stubborn.
It is your mind that wants to get even.
It is your mind that is hurt.
But if you subdue your mind, tell me, where is the anger?
Where is the depression?
Where is the response to conditions? There isn't any.

When the mind is subdued there is only eternal peace and that peace is the self, consciousness.
Consciousness is always peaceful, always happy. It has nothing to do with conditions. All conditioning comes from the mind.

Therefore I say to you,
do not try to change conditions.
Do not try to change situations.
Simply learn how to control the mind by
making it passive and quiet, and then you will find that things turn out better for you than you can possibly ever hope for.

There are no problems.
There is nothing wrong.
Everything is unfolding as it should. Everything happens in its own time.
Space and time are illusions.
They really do not exist. They're stationary. Causation doesn't exist either.
No thing has a cause, therefore no thing has an effect. Cause and effects are again products of your own mind.

When the mind is quiet, karma ceases. Samsaras are non-existent.
There never was a cause for anything. But if you feel that in a previous life you did something wrong and now you are paying the price, or if you think that you did something wrong in this life and you’re paying the price, then you'll pay the price, because that's what you think.

There is virtually no price to pay, because nothing ever happened. If it appears to have happened to you then you
have to go through the consequences of having the effect return, or karma will come back to you, because that's what you feel, that's what you believe. It's all in your feelings and your belief system.

But if you feel as if you're born at every moment, every moment becomes brand new.
Where is the effect?
There is no time for any effect.
There is no space in which to have the effect. Space and time and causation become one, the present moment. And if
you feel like that then you can look into the future, which doesn't exist, and see what's happening. It all has to do with your mind. As long as you feel situations you know it's your mind that's doing it.
