Which Mind  

 Do You Prefer?

....

 

Original mind doesn't cast about searching
New mind searches frantically
Original mind is cool resting in its strength
New mind is hot, bothered, unable to sit

 

Original mind is always satisfied
New mind is starving with its delusions
Original mind is focused, secure, and stable
New mind worries, obsesses, and doubts

 

Original mind is found at your forehead
New mind is far away and confused
Original mind is thoroughly self-aware  
New mind wanders homeless, lost, woebegone
