\u2028\u2028\u201cContemplation is an alternative consciousness that refuses to identify with or feed what are only passing shows. It is the absolute opposite of addiction, consumerism or any egoic consciousness.\u201d - Richard Rohr / contemplation is freedom / pause for thought / the mind should be our employee / \u201csattvic scrolling\u201d / if we could only monitor the mind / Jagrat (waking state), Svapna (dreaming state), Sushupti (deep sleep state) / in the waking state the mind experiences outward impressions - in the dreaming state, it creates its own impressions developed from the materials of the waking hours / Japa locks you into the sacred sound / \u201cFrom wherever the mind wanders due to its flickering and unsteady nature, one must certainly withdraw it and bring it back under the control of the Self.\u201d Bhagavad-gita 6.26
