My only doubt is that he's speaking about you should not act in reactions, while behind him there is a label saying "for effortless living", where simple-minded reaction seem much like the "effortless" (without effort of thinking in broader sense). But he's quite wise and I like to listen to him.
When you have tíme to create space between you and everything that waits for you, then you Can think what will you do before you do it. How much attention will you give to the moment of processing information and conciously make a decision how to respond. The more effortless the living will be. More concioss less reactive without clear mind.
I don't understand & one can respond consciously & drop mind too. I have thought about replacing the word "mind" with fear since that is what it sounds like they are really talking about whenever they bring up the word "mind" in these eastern philosophies. Mind = fear which = a primitive thought/reaction/assumption to possibly nothing or anything. Mind does not = thinking unbiasedly or with awareness. So one can have mind, & be all-encompassing, but should not hold on to fear. Period.
Mind is just instrument, you Can choose which way to use it. Dont think that conciossness is without mind. Its just that its not only mind its whole body. When you think with realization that what you do will create a respons in others. Then you will try to create the best outcome that you can to create better space for yourself as Well as for family or any people around.

He wasn't talking detachment or insensitivity. He was talking about consciousness to all situations, all people.
