“So the single most vital step on your journey toward enlightenment is this: learn to disidentify from your mind. Every time you create a gap in the stream of mind, the light of your consciousness grows stronger.

This means that you no longer take the content of your mind all that seriously, as your sense of self does not depend on it.”
