USE FREE WILL TO ACT ABOVE THE MIND

I never insist that you must follow my directions. You will not repent in future if you think independently and then decide your course of action. Write down all the arguments that your mind presents (just as you are writing it to me) and then try to understand the deeper meaning and motive of the mind behind it. You will then see the real reasons behind the arguments. We should use our own free will and not be just guided by the mind. Even if you are going to do what your mind tells you to do, do not do it at that time. Do it after a while as if you are using your free will to do it and not following mind's decision. Once you practice this way you will get lot more understanding of your efforts to act above the mind.
