Power of the mind is in reality a very powerful energy. It is peaceful, deep and mysterious. When peaceful and stable mind is still and quiet in a Jiva, that Jiva can go over such a quiet mind, never otherwise. It is possible to experience glimpses of the Chetan (consciousness) at this level. Sadhak needs to have this experience while doing Life-Sadhana of being free from all kind of thoughts and in the end becoming thoughtless. At this level of development, Sadhak understands himself properly. He experiences the energy that can control himself by himself. Such is the art of life. So, first we will have to engage ourselves to quiet the mind from its unsteadiness, lack of peace, imaginations and half- haphazardness. This is the best path to guide the mind appropriately. It is also possible to control the mind with the help of the intellect when it is possible to keep focus and solitude in intellect commiserate with development of life and there is no delusion and imaginations about it in the intellect. Other way to quiet the mind, is to separate the mind from within. It is possible to quieten and balance the mind by both paths. So, it is profitable to continue with experiments.
