What good is it to regret?
Begin now...
What use is it to forget?
Try it and do see...
Who are you if you’d know?
Go slowly and see....

The threatened mind is the egoistic mind. What is a threatened mind? It is an obstructed mind full of culturally parroted programming whereby images stuck in the thought patterns seek immediate outcomes as a means of self-preservation and ego gratification. It is a restless, repetitive, argumentative, antagonistic, comparing, contrasting, labeling, excluding and easily wounded mind. A mind tortured by the recollection of one’s rejected emotions.
