STATE OF MIND. Simply a quiet awarenenss of here and now. The flow of thought is like water filling a pond... only when it is ready to flow off from will the mind be empty, free and open to beseech a reposeful ease. The tranquility of no thought....in spirit-action, the state of mind comes from the philosophy of 'serene reflection'. The clear consciousness of no-thought. In quietude, placidly free from tension, do nothing but revolve with the calm of your surroundings, respond like an echo, move like water, rest like a mirror. STATE OF MIND.
