Mahatmas (higher souls) thought about dukkha in the mind and suggested to training the mind to make a difference. At the same time the biggest enemy in sentient beings is the energy of prana. So they thought the talk of cleansing the mind is not proper. Whatever happens in the mind is the result of prana so cleansing of prana needs to be done. It requires lessening of sexual desires, anger, greed. infatuation and jealously.
Field of Buddhi (intellect) is different than mind, chitta, prana and ego. Field of buddhi is independent. In sansar we understand the nature of a person by buddhi. Buddhi is a subtle sense that throws the light on the problem so we understand about sansar and its ways. We have correct understanding but buddhi is tinted by the colors of prana like desires, preferences, likings and covetousness and incorporates these qualities of prana in its decisions.
If you want to experience sukkha in dukkha, these two senses of prana and buddhi needs to be worked on. Buddhi can be sanctified by reducing sexual desires, anger, other desires, longing, beliefs and preconceived ideas.
