Assert Your Real Nature

Know that you are the true Self and you are not the mind that always changes, which gets into moods. Realize you are the Self. The Self understands equanimity. Even though the other part of the mind gets into different moods and feelings, you are not tainted by that. You know that is the nature of the mind and you can say, ‘Okay, today my mind is happy. Tomorrow it will be unhappy. Fine.’ See? You won’t identify yourself with that. You treat the mind as a separate entity, all the time asserting your real nature as the true Self.
