Self control or self restraint served as momentary control towards by-products of ignorance

The veil of ignorance is a natural phenomena that manifests and exists in the selfless minds upon the activation of conscious and semi-conscious awareness/perception/cognition under the state of consciousness and semi-consciousness.

It is neither something bad, nor evil, nor negative, nor bad karma, nor sinful, nor low intelligence, nor low education, nor lack of knowledge, nor shame, humiliation, condemn, punishment, or painful suffering deserving.

However, the minds that are functioning under the influence of the veil of ignorance, might be ignorantly performing actions/reactions/activities that would be hurting oneself and others and the surrounding environment under the influence of ignorance and its by-products.

It is highly important for all the selfless minds under the presence of conscious and semi-conscious awareness/perception/cognition to be engaging in the conscious active process of eradicating the veil of ignorance from the selfless modification of the mind, by the mind itself, out of its own conscious freewill, effort, perseverance, and determination, under the presence of intense yearning towards attaining liberation from ignorance a.k.a. attaining absolute knowledge of knowing the truth of things as it is, without being contaminated or influenced and conditioned by the existing inherited and/or adopted worldly passionate egoistic ideas, beliefs, values, desires, and practices in the mind.

Although whether the mind will attain direct realization towards the truth of the selfless impermanent limited conditional and non-self existence and function of all kinds of names and forms, or not, after engaging in persevered engagement in the process of eradicating the veil of ignorance, a.k.a. quieting the restless impure egoistic thought process/modification of the mind, is not important at all, however, the absence of the veil of ignorance in the mind under the presence of conscious and semi-conscious awareness/perception/cognition will definitely be benefiting all and everyone and everything in the world of many diversities that doesn't belong to anyone or anything, especially when the mind is still existing and functioning selflessly, impermanently, limitedly, and conditionally, even when the selfless impermanent limited and conditional momentary existence and function of the mind that is existing and functioning under the momentary existence and function of the specific physical body, doesn't even belong to the body and mind itself.

The highly useful/functional presence of self control or self restraint, that can be presence or absence, that can be developed and empowered, that can be weak or strong, it served as or played the role of the powerful momentary treatment or control that can hinder or minimize the mind from performing hurtful actions/reactions/activities through the selfless organs of action via the selfless physical body, that would be hurting oneself and others and the surrounding environment under the presence of the veil of ignorance, a.k.a. the idea of 'I', egoism, impurities, and restlessness, as well as the conscious and semi-conscious awareness/perception/cognition towards all kinds of inevitable painful suffering of the physical body - inevitable restless maintenance of ceaseless hunger and thirst, or inevitable process of growth, ceased growing, decay, and disintegration, and all kinds of evitable unnecessary suffering deriving from being ignorant towards the truth of Selflessness, Impermanence, Limitation, Conditional, and Non-self.

Self control, means NOT at all by external force/intimidation/threat/bully/discipline of being forced/intimidated/threatened/bullied/disciplined by some others, but coming from the conscious freewill and initiation of the mind itself, willingly and wittingly to be restraining itself from engaging in any kind of harmful actions/reactions/activities that would be harming oneself and others and the surrounding environment, under the presence of some basic correct understanding, or universal common sense, or conscience (not necessary the presence of complete correct understanding or absolute knowledge), as there are still some kind of impurities or hurtful destructive thoughts/ideas/desires ceaselessly arising and passing away in the thought process. All these hurtful destructive thoughts/ideas/desires don't turn into physical actions/reactions/activities under the presence of self control or self restraint, not being over-powered or determined by all those impurities or hurtful thoughts/ideas/desires that are all selfless, impermanent, limited, conditional, and non-self.

The more the presence of external interference by force, the more turbulent is the thought process, or the restless disturbed agitated modification/state of the mind. The veil of ignorance is becoming even more intense. It is the complete opposite direction towards calming and quieting the restless thought process/modification/state of mind.

Even if there is some 'forcing'/'pushing beyond certain existing limitation' coming from the mind itself during the process of quieting the restless impure egoistic thought current/modification/state of mind, it doesn't help to calm down the restless thought current but would agitate the restless state of mind even more. Or, the mind depends/relies on taking certain substances that will give momentary effect of calming the state of mind, but the mind will no longer be calmed if without taking substances with such calming effect, or when the momentary effect disappears, this is not what liberation is about, although, it does help the mind that is completely lost to stop hurting oneself and others or the surrounding environment, under the momentary control of certain substances/medical treatments.

Even the many different types of yoga and concentration/meditation observations and practices are also giving certain momentary effects of calming the state of mind, that are also impermanent, limited, and conditional. It is not the goal, or the objective, or the end of the practice. The mind needs to be able to go beyond even that momentary induced calmness deriving from engaging regularly in certain observations and practices, under the presence of non-grasping and the development of correct understanding, by inquiring towards the truth of everything (knowing Thyself) under that momentary state of calmness/focus/attentiveness that will also change and pass away.

The difference between undertaking the influential substances/drugs/medical treatments and the engagement in different types of yoga observations and practices, is that, there is the absence of conscious/semi-conscious self effort/control while being under the control/influence of some influential substances/drugs/medical treatments, just as under the state of unconsciousness/deep sleep/coma, which doesn't lead towards the annihilation of the veil of ignorance that manifests naturally during the state of consciousness and semi-consciousness, but there is the presence of certain degrees of conscious/semi-conscious self effort/control/inquiry/realization while observing and performing certain yoga observations and practices which will be empowering the degrees of self control under the presence of conscious freewill and effort, that will lead towards the annihilation of the veil of ignorance under the state of consciousness and semi-consciousness, without the need/addiction/dependence of depending on the momentary calming effects induced by certain influential substances/drugs/medical treatments, even if the decision and action of undertaking certain influential substances/drugs/medical treatments is out of the conscious/semi-conscious freewill and effort of oneself, and not being forced by some others without one's conscious consent or awareness.

The attainment of the momentary calmness state of mind that derives from or depends on the limited and conditional availability of certain substances/drugs/medical treatments or performing certain yoga and/or buddhism observations and practices, is not liberation.

The direct realization towards the unconditional peace that is timeless and attributeless that is always there as it is, unchanging beyond time, space, and causation, not being determined by the limited and conditional availability of certain substances/drugs/medical treatments or performing certain yoga and/or buddhism observations and practices, but is known/realized by the selfless mind under the state of consciousness and semi-consciousness, but under the absence of the veil of ignorance, under the presence of the absolute knowledge arising from seeing everything as they are, or under the presence of the correct understanding arising from self inquiry inquiring towards the truth of everything, under the conscious/semi-conscious state of clarity, is liberation.

That is why there was/is the advice from the past and present awakened buddhas and gurus about the importance of refraining from undertaking any kind of influential addictive intoxicants/drugs unless the mind is completely lost and that keeps hurting oneself and others and the surrounding environment, and hence, it needs to be controlled under the momentary effect/control/influence of certain substances/drugs/medical treatments, in order to stop hurting oneself and others and the surrounding environment.

That is why the highly importance of looking after the well-being of the mind by the mind itself, before it becomes too late to do anything (irreversible) upon the mind is completely lost and keeps hurting itself and others and the surrounding environment voluntarily/involuntarily and ignorantly, where it is highly important to rely solely on the development and empowerment of conscious/semi-conscious self control, self effort, and self inquiry to attain direct self realization towards the truth of everything, and realize the unconditional peace that is beyond the impermanent states of mind, including the momentary Sattvic/calmness state of mind, that can be induced by undertaking certain influential substances/drugs/medical treatments (not recommended unless the mind is completely lost), or via the active engagement in certain conscious/semi-conscious physical and mental observations and practices.

The mind needs to develop and have some basic correct understanding towards non-grasping, non-attachment, non-identification, non-craving, non-aversion, non-judgment, non-comparison, and non-expectation in the process of quieting the restless modification of the mind.

There is needless of self control or self restraint under the absence of the veil of ignorance (devoid of the idea of 'I', egoism, impurities, and restlessness, or the disturbed painful suffering state of mind), a.k.a. under the presence of clarity, or complete correct understanding, or absolute knowledge.

The presence of self control is highly useful and important when the veil of ignorance is still present and existing in the selfless modification of the mind, but it doesn't eradicate the veil of ignorance, if the idea of 'I' and egoism continuously gives rise to and empowers all kinds of impurities and restlessness.

The ignorant minds think and argue that, "If there is no I or self, who is there to be self controlled, or controlling oneself? Who or what is there to be accountable for all kinds of actions/reactions/activities and their consequences?"

Selflessness, as well as the absence of the ego, or 'I'lessness, doesn't mean that the selfless body and mind doesn't exist, or all these selfless names and forms don't exist.

It is the selfless impermanent limited and conditional momentary existence and function of the conscious/semi-conscious egoistic mind that is the one being aware of the restless impure egoistic modification of itself, and have the conscious initiation and effort to be modifying and rendering its own state of mind as well as controlling its own egoistic impure hurtful behaviors/actions/reactions/activities, consciously and semi-consciously, under the presence of conscious and semi-conscious awareness/perception/cognition.

All minds are selfless. While the selfless minds can be functioning either under the presence or absence of the ego and egoism.

Such as the partial or complete autistic minds are being born under the partial or complete absence of the ego (conscious/semi-conscious self acknowledgement, or the sense of separateness) and egoism (egoistic activities/actions/reactions/behaviors), biologically, naturally, and effortlessly.

Being autistic, is not at all a form of painful suffering to the autistic mind itself, but the surrounding others that are functioning under the presence and influence of the ego and egoism might be confused and disturbed by the quietness, non-talkative, non-sociable, non-interaction, non-communication, and the high sensitivity towards the over-whelming random inputs of the senses from the surrounding environment of the autistic mind, and hence, the surrounding egoistic minds might be in a state of disturbance or painful suffering, due to non-understanding towards the autistic mind doesn't behave 'normally' like all the others.

There is absence of egoistic conscious/semi-conscious good or bad intention/desire in the ego-less autistic mind, but only instinctive autonomous non-conscious urges to react instinctively towards certain condition and situation under the presence of the survival instinct, that also exists in the non-sentient living organisms, such as plants and in the sentient living organisms that haven't developed the idea of 'I' a.k.a. conscious/semi-conscious self awareness/acknowledgement, or the sense of separateness. It is not a bad thing at all, for the minds that are being born autistic. There is absence of conscious/semi-conscious perception of pleasurable enjoyment (clinging/craving) and painful suffering (aversion).

Meanwhile, an egoistic selfless mind can be functioning under the presence or absence of self control, and whether there's initiation and effort to minimize or avoid generating hurtful behaviors/actions/reactions/activities that would be hurting oneself and others and the surrounding environment that doesn't belong to anyone or anything, or not.

An ego-less selfless mind doesn't need the presence of self control to be functioning as what it is, as there is absence of egoism, impurities, and restlessness, or disturbance, desperation, and painful suffering.

Inquire the truth of everything. 

The persistent regular practice highly matters but the result doesn't matter at all

Why is the active continuous engagement in the yoga and meditation practice regularly highly mattered, but the many different impermanent by-products/side-effects/consequences that come along with the regular practice, as well as the final fruit/outcome/result of the entire total accumulated persevered practice (whether the mind successfully attains direct realization towards the truth of selflessness, impermanence, limitation, conditional, and non-self, or not) at the end of life existence doesn't matter at all?

Just as the existence of all kinds of fruit trees that produce different kinds of fruits respectively might be important and beneficial to the survival of many others, but whether all the fruits on the trees are being consumed, or not, and are being consumed in certain way or not in certain way, is not the responsibility of the fruit trees and the fruits, and it doesn't matter.

Just as performing all actions/duties/responsibilities under the presence of correct understanding is highly mattered, but the fruit of actions/duties/responsibilities, or how others respond and react towards one's actions and fruit of actions, doesn't matter at all.

Just as the effort, or willpower, or resilience of keep going in the journey of a selfless impermanent limited and conditional momentary life existence until it comes to an end under respective cause and pace, is what mattered, but what is there, or not there, in the end of the journey, it doesn't matter at all.

*Such as there are many different wishful and hopeful or fearful and threatening stories telling about 'what happens upon and after death', or the common worldly belief about the existence of a timeless beginningless and endless infinite immortal existence of a permanent independent infinite individual self identity/soul/spirit/consciousness undergoing either several or countless separate births and deaths (limited and unlimited reincarnations/rebirths) ignorantly, reluctantly, and unwittingly, where either the cycle of births and deaths has a beginning that will come to an end, or it is a beginningless and endless loop/wheel of endless births and deaths, where the minds are not being in the present but are being busy building, accumulating, projecting, and anticipating what after now. Or, upon attaining the direct realization towards the truth of selflessness, impermanence, limitation, conditional, and non-self in the finite momentary existence in all kinds of names and forms - regardless of whether living organisms or non-living objects, where there isn't any past different separate existence or future different separate existence beyond this existence, or there aren't continuous past/present/future different separate existences that belong to a permanent independent infinite individual identity/soul/spirit/consciousness that doesn't exist, where the only existence is what is here in NOW, and it is selfless, impermanent, limited, conditional, and non-self.

Just as the selfless impermanent limited and conditional momentary life existence and function that is still existing and functioning in NOW is highly mattered, but when (long-lived/short-lived) and how (the cause of death) is the life existence and function comes to an end, doesn't matter at all.

Just as whether the minds believe or disbelieve in 'the creator and the judge of all and everything' or 'God'/'gods'/'soul'/'spirit'/'individual consciousness'/'heaven, earth, and hell'/'different realms'/'ceaseless reincarnations in endless loop of births and deaths undergoing countless different separate life existences transitioning among different realms of a permanent independent individual consciousness or soul or spirit', and etc, doesn't matter at all, but to be engaging in the mind purification and silencing process, or the silence of the restless impure egoistic modification of the mind, or the annihilation/subjugation/stillness of the restless thought current, that gives rise to clarity of thinking and reasoning, that gives rise to correct understanding/wisdom/absolute knowledge, that gives rise to unconditional peace in oneself that contribute peace into the surrounding environment, regardless of whether the mind believes or disbelieves in 'all that', where the mind stops hurting or doesn't hurt itself and others and the surrounding environment under the influence of ignorance and the by-products of ignorance, either wittingly or unwittingly, consciously or unconsciously, intentionally or unintentionally, voluntarily or involuntarily, is what matters. 

*The mind doesn't hurt itself and others and the surrounding environment is not because of fear towards painful punishment, but out of conscious freewill under the absence of fear under the presence of correct understanding.

Just as it doesn't matter even when there are many minds believe in the many imaginative wishful thinking, or comforting mystical stories telling, or desirable justifications about 'what happens or what is there after death', that are non-factual, but more importantly, is how the conscious perceptive cognitive intellectual emotional thinking and acting mind making good use of the selfless impermanent limited and conditional life existence and function of the body and mind that doesn't even belong to the body and mind itself, that is still existing and functioning under the selfless support of the selfless energy and the many different selfless elements in NOW, under the existing available physical and mental good condition and functionality, knowledge, understanding, experience, talent, skill, and opportunity, to be performing selfless actions/physical and mental activities that can benefit all and everyone and everything unconditionally and indiscriminately, out of generosity, kindness, and wisdom (correct understanding or absolute knowledge).

Just as all human beings, regardless of young or old, energetic or non-energetic, healthy or unhealthy, fit or unfit, knowledgeable or non-knowledgeable, intelligent or non-intelligent, talented or non-talented, skillful or non-skillful, happy or unhappy, ambitious or non-ambitious, wise or ignorant, understanding or non-understanding, introvert or extrovert, selfish or unselfish, good or bad behavior, short-lived or long-lived, need to have or develop a specific point of focus/attentiveness/direction/goal throughout the entire momentary duration of the selfless impermanent limited and conditional life existence and function, to be diverting the entire attention and energy onto the physical and mental engagement in something that is beneficial to oneself and others and the surrounding environment, where there is no extra room/time/space, attention, or energy left for some other physical and mental activities that are harmful to oneself and others and the surrounding environment, during the momentary selfless impermanent limited and conditional existence and function of the body and mind, is what matters.

The minds that have attained direct self realization towards the truth of selflessness, impermanence, limitation, conditional, and non-self, will naturally understand why it doesn't matter about 'the existence of the many different comforting and/or threatening stories telling or justifications towards the unknown, or painful suffering, or certain behavior and phenomena that the minds couldn't understand', or 'what is there, or not there, upon/after the death of this physical body or the end of this life existence', while making good use or full use of this fleeting momentary 'precious' existence of the body and mind when it is still available and possible, to be doing something beneficial to oneself and others and the surrounding environment, indiscriminately and unconditionally.

Such minds won't waste any effort, or energy, or life (what most mind referred as time) into useless common mingling, socializing, bonding, connecting, interacting, big talk, small talk, vain talk, chit-chatting, gossiping, slandering, condemning, criticizing, shaming, blaming, boasting, glorifying, worshiping, day dreaming, building castle in the air, regret, guilt, celebrating, mourning, grieving, plotting, scheming, politicking, conflict, argument, debate, envying, admiring, imitating, intimidating, interfering, fighting, hoarding, and so on.

The minds that haven't attained direct realization towards the truth of selflessness, impermanence, limitation, conditional, and non-self, they might or might not be conditioned by certain belief and values to behave and desire in certain way and not in certain way, as well as what they 'want to' believe about 'what is there upon/after death', that they think and believe and evaluate as what highly mattered and meaningful. There is neither right nor wrong. Under such projection and anticipation towards the unknown or 'what is there upon and after death', some minds would refrain themselves from causing any harm unto anyone or anything, while some minds would cause harm unto themselves and others, due to the different degrees of understanding/non-understanding/misunderstanding, even under the similar common belief and values and practice, not to say, under the many different beliefs and values and practices.

That is why there is the highly practical and essential observation or practice of silence (Mauna), solitude, seclusion, being/living/focusing in the present, dispassion, desirelessness, non-grasping, non-association, non-craving, non-aversion, non-building castle in the air/day dreaming/wild imagination, withdrawing the outgoing tendency of the mind chasing after the objects of the senses, renunciation (non-engagement in worldly egoistic activities/affairs/relationships/connections/interactions/communications/aspirations), self-introspection, self-inquiry, concentration and meditation, to gather the passionate restless outgoing tendency/curiosity/random thoughts and desires/discontentment/inattentiveness/constant longing towards receiving attention, acknowledgement, agreement, consent, approval, recognition, understanding, friendship, companionship, interaction, or communication from others/power of influence and control seeking and gathering/possession hoarding and wealth accumulation, a.k.a. the restless thought current, to be concentrating at one particular point of focus/attentiveness/concentration for a prolonged duration, that will eventually and effortlessly turn into meditation (silence/clarity of mind/stillness of the mind or thought current).

The engagement in all kinds of regular persistent physical and mental practice are useful and highly mattered, until the mind attains direct self realization towards the truth of everything under clarity or quiet state of mind, where the conscious mind under the absence of the idea of 'I'/the ego, is resting in peace upon the selfless timeless attributeless universal consciousness that doesn't belong to anyone or anything, where the mind can be attending or engaging in some activities, or not, and spending energy or effort onto doing/creating/constructing/sowing/learning/teaching/sharing something, or not, but there is needless to have any form of interaction, or connectivity, or communication, or mutual understanding, or response and reaction with any others.

This is similar to the minds that are being referred as autistic.

They can be learning and performing all kinds of activities/actions selflessly and egolessly, without the need of responding or reacting to anyone, or to be interacting and communicating with anyone, or to gain attention, reaction, appreciation, understanding, agreement, recognition, acknowledgement, liking, love, support, respect, approval, praise and compliment, encouragement, friendship, relationship, companionship, connection, power of influence or control, and etc.

They don't need any encouragement or praise from anyone to motivate them for anything and for being what they are, as they are. They don't respond or react to the presence and absence of encouragement or discouragement/praise or criticism/likes and dislikes/agreements and disagreements about anything from anyone.

They don't interfere with (judge/discriminate/expect) all and everything being what they are, as they are. They don't intentionally go around disturbing any others, but the others are greatly 'disturbed' by their silence and aloneness, or non-sociable, non-interaction, and non-communication.

They are naturally turning inward, instinctively self-introspecting, self-investigating, self-inquiring, or self-learning, which is the highest power of learning, knowing, reasoning, and understanding.

They can be highly intelligent and creative and talented and skillful in certain things or many things, but they are not seeking success/name and fame/power of influence and control, or response and reaction, attention, acknowledgment, recognition, praise, understanding, approval, consent, opinion, appreciation, liking, support, friendship, or anything, from anyone.

They are dispassionate but not emotionless, and they perceive or feel or recognize the different sensations of pleasantness and unpleasantness/comfort and discomfort, and they might express feelings and emotions as they are, while not necessarily in the way that most minds would express the different feelings and emotions in certain way respectively.

They don't have the 'common' and 'normal' tendency to interfere with/influence/control/manipulate all the others being what they are, as they don't need to digest/understand/react/respond towards any unnecessary inputs, or the different random and fleeting thoughts/feelings/emotions/actions/reactions/behaviors/understanding and non-understanding/agreements and disagreements/likes and dislikes of anyone.

Just as all the selfless cells in the physical body are performing their respective activity/duty/function selflessly and egolessly for being what they are, as they are.

* Selflessness - The truth of everything, where there is no existence of a permanent independent infinite immortal individual self existence of a unique individual identity/soul/spirit/consciousness that exists in any names and forms, regardless of living organisms or non-living objects, that are all selfless, impermanent, limited, conditional, and non-self

* Egolessness or 'I'lessness - The absence of the idea of 'I', or the ego, or the conscious individual self acknowledgement in the selfless perceptive cognitive intellectual emotional thinking and acting mind or the thinking faculty of the selfless living organisms

'Normal' minds referred autistic minds as 'abnormal', or 'unhealthy', or 'something wrong' because the autistic minds are basically and naturally functioning under the absence of the ego/the idea of 'I'/the conscious individual self acknowledgement and egoism, or the absence of the sense of separateness between 'I' and 'others' or 'not I', and hence, the autistic minds don't behave 'normally' the same as the minds that are functioning 'normally' under the presence and influence of conscious individual self acknowledgment (the ego or the idea of 'I') that gives rise to the sense of separateness between 'I' and 'others' or 'not I', that gives rise to 'relationship', or 'connection', or 'bonding', or 'interaction and communication', or 'corresponding', or 'mingling', or 'socializing', under the influence of the ego/the idea of 'I'/the conscious individual self acknowledgement and egoism of grasping, attachment, identification, craving and aversion, judgment, comparison, and expectation/anticipation/projection, where the many 'normal functioning' passionate egoistic minds, including enthusiastic scientists or biologists, cannot understand what is going on in the minds that are functioning under the absence of the ego and egoism, that are naturally and effortlessly resting within, or internalized, or focused within.

They think and understand and say that the autistic minds cannot pick up, or learn, or develop, or understand certain things like all the other 'normal functioning' minds, but actually it is the 'normal' individual self acknowledging egoistic impure restless minds that are the ones that cannot understand or comprehend the minds that are functioning under the absence of the ego and egoism, that are devoid of the sense of separateness and possessiveness, egoistic grasping, attachment, identification, association, connection, relationship, desire of craving and aversion, judgment, comparison, expectation, and all kinds of unnecessary evitable impurities and restlessness, of what the 'normal functioning' minds referred as 'normal' and 'healthy' function, activity, action/reaction, and behavior.

The autistic minds are indeed showing the world of passionate egoistic outgoing restless human minds about the truth of selflessness in all kinds of names and forms, where living organisms can be existing and functioning selflessly as well as egolessly under the absence of the ego/the idea of 'I' or the conscious individual self acknowledgement and egoism.

The world of many diversities will definitely have more peace and harmony and have less unnecessary unrest and conflicts if most minds are being born autistic genetically and biologically, or devoid of the ego and egoism naturally and effortlessly. Similarly, if more and more 'normal' egoistic impure restless passionate minds practice yoga and meditation diligently, and render the selfless impermanent limited and conditional egoistic impure restless modification of the mind to become quiet or silent, devoid of the idea of 'I', egoism, impurities, and restlessness, the world of diverse individuals and diverse communities will definitely and naturally have more peace and harmony.

There is the absence of the ego and egoism in the autistic minds 'genetically', 'biologically', 'physically', 'mentally', 'naturally', and 'effortlessly', which is exactly the ultimate goal of all kinds of yoga and/or buddhism practice under different lineages/styles/schools/paths/gurus/teachings/practices, but with the one same goal of to be consciously and diligently quieting and purifying the restless thought current, by eradicating restlessness and all kinds of impurities via the annihilation of the idea of 'I' and egoism from the selfless impermanent limited and conditional modification of the mind, a.k.a. the annihilation of the veil of ignorance and the consequences/by-products of ignorance.

However, that (the absence of the ego and egoism) is being referred as a form of 'mental deformity', or 'abnormality', or 'unhealthiness', or 'madness', or 'negativity', in the world of ignorance and egoism, where the many passionate egoistic impure restless minds are 'naturally' functioning 'normally' under the presence and influence of the idea of 'I, egoism, impurities, and restlessness, where there are so much unnecessary evitable violence, discrimination, dissatisfaction, discontentment, distraction, disappointment, hurt, offensiveness, defensiveness, argument, conflict, fighting, unrest, resentment, selfishness, possessiveness, greed, aspiration, ambition, self-righteousness, anger, hatred, jealousy, envy, self-esteem and self-worth, pride and shame, guilt, regret, fear, worry, loneliness, boredom, lies, hypocrisy, justification, dishonesty, prejudice, discrimination, self blame, blaming others, slandering, back-biting, politicking, exploitation, plotting, all kinds of corruption, invasion, intrusion, interference, oppression, self harm, harming others and the surrounding environment, and so on, in the passionate egoistic impure restless minds that also contributing unrest, disturbance, and conflicts into the surrounding environment. Completely peaceless within and without.

And the 'normal' minds referred such ignorance and common ignorant behaviors, actions, reactions, interactions, relationships, connections, affairs, or activities of the 'normal' minds, as something 'normal' and 'healthy'.

The rare and precious minds, either being born autistic (absence of the ego and egoism as well as internalized/focused within) biologically, naturally, and effortlessly as it is, or not being born autistic but are functioning under the presence and influence of the ego or the idea of 'I', while out of conscious awareness being aware of the restless/ignorant/distracted/disturbed suffering peaceless state of mind, and having intense yearning to be free from all that, to be consciously making effort to be silent and quiet, by turning inward or internalized/focused within through conscious freewill and self effort via certain practices and observations to be eradicating the idea of 'I' and egoism that gives rise to all kinds of impurities and restlessness/distraction that feeds and empowers the veil of ignorance and the consequences of ignorance, these minds don't need to have any particular direction or goal, or hanging onto any kind of faith or belief and values, in order to keep them busy focusing onto working and reaching that particular direction or goal, in order to avoid engaging in many other activities that could be harmful to oneself and others and the surrounding environment.

All these self internalized minds won't be engaging in any form of activities that are deliberately or intentionally to be harming oneself and others and the surrounding environment, under the presence of one-pointedness or stillness or quietness, that gives rise to clarity of thinking and reasoning, correct understanding, wisdom, absolute knowledge, and unconditional peace, in silence, a.k.a. under the absence of the veil of ignorance, a.k.a. the idea of 'I'/the ego, egoism, impurities, and restlessness.

That is why the autistic minds are being in the most comfortable state when they are being alone by themselves, not being 'disturbed' or 'stimulated' by any kind of unnecessary boundless inputs that are being ceaselessly generated by the many 'normal' minds that are so restless/puzzled/ignorant/egoistic/impure/passionate/discontented/control freak. And there is absolutely nothing wrong with that.

Meanwhile, the 'normal' egoistic restless passionate minds desire to 'change' or 'heal' the autistic minds, that are naturally quiet, peaceful, at ease, or comfortable being alone by themselves, while being 'anxious', 'disturbed', or 'unease' when they are being 'force feed' or 'disturbed' by so much ongoing unnecessary inputs or actions and reactions of the surrounding 'normal' egoistic impure restless minds, especially when there are many 'normal' minds around them aspired to force/change/heal/rehabilitate them to become 'normal', or to behave 'normally' like them.

The 'normal' minds want to interfere with and change the quiet and internalized minds because they don't like the reality of they can't understand the quiet minds where they can't control/influence/manipulate the minds that are quiet/internalized, and that don't interact/communicate with them or don't respond/react/acknowledge towards them and their desire of desiring/controlling/influencing/manipulating all and everything to be the way that they desire.

The selfless mind is fully focusing on doing its own thing quietly and attentively, alone, by oneself, in peace.

But the 'normal' minds/parents/friends/teachers/doctors/scientists in the surrounding environment that are extremely clueless, puzzled, and confused, "Look at me here. I am talking to you. I care for you. I love you. I want to help you. Please say and express something. Tell me what are you thinking and how are you feeling. Why don't you respond or communicate with me at all? I can't understand, and I can't help you, if you don't respond to me or don't communicate with me. It is not good and unhealthy if you cannot and don't mingle and socialize, interact and communicate with some others."

If the mind can be opened, it will start to see and understand all that. If the mind wants to see and understand the mind that is silence and internalized, that doesn't respond towards or interact/communicate with the others in the surrounding environment, the mind can learn about Vipassana practice by attending Vipassana silent meditation retreat, and it will know that there is nothing wrong, or abnormal, or unhealthy about the precious silence, quietness, solitude, seclusion, dispassion, internalization, inputs cut-off, non-eye contacting, non-expressing, non-communicating, non-mingling, non-socializing, and non-interacting, but it is absolutely highly beneficial to the over-all well-being of oneself and others and the surrounding environment.

Inquire the truth of everything, and be free.
