Do not control the mind when it wanders. I will tell you why. The mind wanders because it has innumerable interests. If you control the mind so as to concentrate on any one thing, you will build a resistance to all other things. That is not understanding

The desire for a result, which is another form of conclusion-seeking, prevents understanding

There is no intellectual understanding; either we understand or we don't

---

To understand, the mind is must be still; the activities of knowledge must be in abeyance

---

Understanding is immediate, it is not of time
