Mind Control Quotes

Mind Control. It is a disturbing idea. Terrifying. That a person loses their ability to think freely. That their will is manipulated. Mind control is not always what you see in science fiction movies. It might be a subtle marketing tactic. Or shrewd political propaganda. Or even an involuntary influence of certain groups. It is an **attempt to break an individual's will and impose an external vision**. Understanding its mechanisms is necessary to maintain the integrity of consciousness. These quotes address the dark side of human influence.

Some feel that you lose your independence if you don't let your mind just wander where it wants to, if you try to control it. But that is not the case. If your mind is proceeding in the correct way, one already has the correct opinion. But if your mind is proceeding in an incorrect way, then it's necessary, definitely, to exercise control.

Just as I sit down to meditate, all the vilest subjects in the world come up. The whole thing is nauseating. Why should the mind think thoughts I do not want it to think? I am as it were a slave to the mind.

It is important to understand that counterproducti ve actions of body, speech and mind do not arise of their own accord, but spring up in dependence on our motivation. Faulty states of mind give rise to faulty actions. To control negative physical and verbal actions, we need to tame our minds.

Avoid excessive merriment. A mind in that state never becomes calm; it becomes fickle. Excessive merriment will always be followed by sorrow. Tears and laughter are near kin. People so often run from one extreme to the other.
