I have been studying Yoga and meditation for the last 38 years.  This book is a GREAT addition to my studies and helped me understand some of the Eastern teachings, i.e., about how we allow our minds to flit alll over the place and spend, spend, spend engergy that tires us out; the time spent for useless thinking could better serve us, could be better spent, like, to make some contribution to oneself or something else.  The second or third sutra of The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali states that for an aspirant to excell, one must get CONTROL of the "chitta" (word sounds like s*** and constantly spinning thoughts are s***) of the mind.  We have a mind and WE are not only the mind.  There is a consciousness that propels the mind, is the engergy behind the mind, our true selves.  This book helped me see how VERY powerful a small thought can be.  I started to more carefully monitor my thoughts after reading this book.  I really liked it!
