When you go deep in meditation, the consciousness becomes very subtle, and your mind becomes fresh like a flower.

🌺Are we slaves of our mind?

I say no, because there is something beyond the mind, and that is the intellect. When the intellect is strong, it overcomes the impact of these factors on the mind. When the intellect is weak, then the emotions take over the mind.

Now, what if the intellect also gets affected?

Then there is something beyond the intellect and that is the Self. This is where meditation makes a big difference. When you go deep in meditation, the consciousness becomes very subtle, and your mind becomes fresh like a flower. In such a delicate state of consciousness, all thoughts move away, emotions get settled and you experience the most tranquil, most benevolent and most beautiful inner space.
