All my life, I have seen people who have controlled, denied, negated, sacrificed, controlled, suppressed, disciplined and tortured themselves. And I say, for what? For God, for truth? A mind that has been tortured is crooked, brutalised. Can such a mind see truth? Certainly not. You need a completely healthy mind, a mind that is whole, a mind that is holy in itself. Unless the mind is sacred, you cannot see what is sacred.
