Mingyur Rinpoche writes that Buddhism and meditation is about controlling our minds, learning to break free of attachment and being able to recognize the bardos as we exist in them. My mind has always been my friend and my companion, but she is a wild thing flying around chasing fear and meaning. To control a mind like mine will always be a terrific endeavor. I take repetition, diligence, and forever recognizing the false thoughts, the attachments in me, and in understanding them, allow myself to become even further unbound to the illusions I have clung to.
