What does it matter however many thoughts rise?
At the very moment that each thought rises, if one vigilantly enquires
"To whom did this rise?', it will be known 'To me.
If one then enquires 'Who am I?", the mind will turn back to its source. and the thought which had risen will also subside.
By repeatedly practising thus,
the power of the mind to abide in its source increases.
