Our Amazing Minds

There are three major influences on our brains: adversity, meditation, and the mind. In our brains, all information gathers in the hippocampus. New skills and learning generate here. Old ideas come into competition with the new ideas being formed. In the magic of meditation, the brain starts to be able to focus more. Further, the mind is the brain's master. We direct the brain with our own minds. The conscious mind can direct and plant seeds in the subconscious mind. The journey is heading in one direction---and that's home. The mind is everything. What we think we become. -- The Buddha
