United Karma Kagyu Federation Malaysia If this elephant of mind is bound on all sides by the cord of mindfulness, all fear dissapear and complete happiness comes, all enemies: all the tigers, lions, elephants, bears, serpents (of our emotions); and all the keepers of hell; the demons and the horrors, all of these are bound by the mastery of your mind, and by the taming of that one mind, all are subdued, because from the mind are derived all fears and immeasurable sorrows.Shantideva
