The Essential Nature of the Citta

In the Path to Arahantship, Luang Por Maha Boowa explains the nature of the citta (translated as heart/mind or just mind in this excerpt). The citta supports whatever energies are conditioned through the sense-bases. To truly know the citta, one meditates and experience it through samadhi, and learn to separate the citta from its own conditions such as the body, feelings, thoughts, perception and (sense) consciousness to know its true purity which is our natural self.
