The Mind Machine

The ordinary mind, being a machine, has but one function: it creates and then goes about attempting to solve problems. It enjoys this game and will continue to play it as long as you allow it to do so, your entire life if it can. It is not concerned that you are suffering in many areas because of its games. You will come to understand through the meditation techniques that you are not your ordinary mind and that it has not nearly the importance which we attach to it. Richard Hittleman
