Right understanding (and right functioning) of the mind does not come from thinking, but from actively and attentively observing the complex constellation of energies and activities of mind.

“O corpo, desde o início da encarnação, está em processo de
deterioração. A alma busca a vida, mas o corpo naturalmente se move para
a morte. Embora o corpo tenha o potencial de viver determinado número
de anos, se a alma diz: ‘não quero mais’, ela entrega o corpo à própria
sorte; à mercê dos vírus, das bactérias e de todas as influências que
conduzem o corpo de volta para a terra.”

“From the beginning of its incarnation, the body is in the process of
deterioration. The soul seeks life, but the body naturally moves towards
death. Even though the body has the potential to live a certain amount
of years, if the soul says, ‘I don’t want to be here anymore’, it leaves
the body to its own demise. The body is then at the mercy of viruses,
bacteria and all the influences that make the body return to the earth.”
