The Mind Wants To Be Lost In Thought

The Daily Tejaniya for Aug. 15:

 

The mind works from habit patterns. 

I understand that these cause tension, but wisdom is weak and the habit patterns are strong.

Therefore, it is really important that I see what motivates my thinking.

I need to really watch and notice that the mind wants to think.

It wants to be lost in thought.
