When the mind is filled with relentless thinking, you become confined within its walls. Thoughts pull you into the past, push you into the future, and bind you with fear, desire, and confusion. As long as you are identified with your thoughts, you live as a prisoner inside your own psychological patterns. You mistake these thoughts for yourself and lose touch with the reality of the present moment.

But the moment you begin to see your thoughts, a sacred distance is created. You realise that thoughts arise and pass, while you remain the silent awareness behind them. In this seeing, the prison door opens on its own. Freedom does not come by fighting thoughts, but by witnessing them. Then Grace flows, the mind becomes quiet, and you experience the joy of simply being untouched, unbound, and deeply alive. Let’s pray to Sri Ammabhagavan to understand that one is a prisoner of thoughts.
