Sadhguru - mind and brain are different; mind exists only in its activity

Nov 17 aft
Now landed in Chennai domestic airport. My food rendezvous with M is cancelled as his place is flooded. Miss the food. Was looking forward to chettinad Briyani rice. Staying for awhile in domestic nicely renovated. The international airport is horrendous and check in counter won't be open. So got to stay here, at least the place is clean.

Mind is your business by Sadhguru
Mind and the brain are different things. The mind need not only the brain but many things to be active.
The brain is a physical object but mind is not a physical object. Your mind exists only in its activity. If u take off the activity, it does not exist. U don't know where it is because it exists only in its activity.
Every cell in ur body has its own mind. Ur genes carry memory and act out that memory.
If u turn off the mind, it is just off - it ceases to exist. If u turn it on, it is again. It is like a cinema. When a cinema is on, it is more real than real. A big drama is going on which is so real.
In ur experience of life, what is going on in ur mind is more important to u than what is going on outside of you. What ur tots and emotions says, is far more important than what the world is saying.
But if u turn it off, it suddenly ceases to exist. Then u see the ridiculous nature of ur mind. It creates such a drama, but it is so fragile. It is like a cinema - u turn it off, it is finished.

So true. Just now seeing a happy wealthy family and here I m traveling alone. Moments of wishful came but I hold myself back by watching breathe. I remember my contentment.

If the mind becomes a conscious cinema, there is no problem. U can enjoy the movie only if you can turn it on and off when u want to. Then it is a wonderful movie.

Soul
Suddenly tot of similarity with my control issue. Real power is when I m able to switch off and off my control. It already been done.
Now the mind and it is thru the breathe watching mode. No wonder Sadhguru prescribes hourly breathe watching.

If you know u are stupid, then u will not attach too much importance to ur tot and u will start looking at life. If u are looking at life more, ur intelligence will definitely flower. Then, tot is not a process, tot is not a problem, because bot much tot will be there.
 If u don't pay any attention to ur tot, it will just die. If you become like this, once in a way when you consciously think, it will become crystal clear.

Whatever the content of ur mind, it is just throwing itself out. Don't pay any attention to it unless u consciously bring it forth. If u consciously generate a tot, that is different. Then u will naturally create the kind of tot u want. Otherwise, these tots are just random happening. That should stop.

Soul
Yeap, tots of envy over others over Z is random happenings. In truth I don't want their life style. I just want mine.

The moment u identify urself with something u are not, u are finished - ur mind is in a continuous run.

Soul
Sadhguru said this during Samyama.
I m still having random tots on Z and needing a partner to feel security. I truly don't want to pay the price of such life style. I have chosen mine.
So what the identification. I used to think that having a partner stop my identity of being unlovable. But now I know I m and being lovable by others had nothing to do with me. Being lovable to myself is my focus.
Anyway, natal chart did say my dream is to have a true partner. For now focus on my inner partner.
