Sadhguru - when your mind is active, past exists

Nov 17 eve
Tot of my trip to ashram. At first tot that its for me to get close to Dhynalinga. But somehow it was a session of getting closer to Linga. I was not really drawn to her and infact avoided it but whenever I went to her place she won't let me go. I just stayed there.

The thing on the copper pot is truly funny. And now I be even closer to Linga cos I be drinking water from a copper pot graced by her.

Mind is your business by Sadhguru
The past is carried only in ur mind. Only because ur mind is active that past exists. The reality is only present but past exists through our minds. Or in other words, mind is karma. If u transcend the mind, u transcend the karmic bondage altogether in one stroke.
The fundamental thing is to learn how not to create new stick. Then, leaving the old stock is very simple.
The past does not exist but you are dealing with the non existent, going about as if it is a reality. Mind is the basis of this.
The whole effort of spiritual science is how to transcend the mind, how to look beyond the limitations of the mind.

The mind identification with Z is my main focus to ensure I transcend the mind. So if coffee is the first step, I m willing to pay.

Mind is your business by Sadhguru
All the influences of the world are entering u only through the instrument of the mind. If u can rise beyond the influence of ur mind in full awareness, then u are naturally one with everything.
Only when you create a little distance between u and the mind, between u and the body, u perceive the nature of the body and the mind. Otherwise it is all mixed up.
It is because people can't bear the torture of the mind that they have devised many ways in society to go below the mind.
Excessive eating, alcohol, excessive indulgence in physical pleasures, these are ways to go below the mind. People use them and for a few moments they can forget the torture.
