Insanity is simply the lack of concentration, reaching its ultimate.

It is the Christ that brings you to yourself, out of the three qualities, giving you perfect peace and repose, as you are in the divine Mind.

Repose a State of Mind

Repose is a state of mind. We commonly associate it with our surroundings, and our relations. We think, “Oh, when I can get into a place where there is no more noise; when I can relax in body; when I can get off on my vacation; when I can have a change, then I shall rest and find repose.” These things are but symbols of that which is the real cause of repose, the restful state of mind. All the time it is your mind that gives you the repose; even though it seems to be the bed, or a vacation, or something else external.

If the mind is not at peace, you can have weeks of vacation and be as upset and disturbed at the end as you were in the beginning. If your mind is not at peace, you can lie down upon your bed hour after hour and even go to sleep, and at the end of it you will feel as though you had had no rest. Why? Because the mind did not take hold of the idea. Yet, on the contrary, there are people who have no vacations, but who are just as fresh at the end of the day as in the morning, full of energy, resolution, full of power for work, and they never grow tired. Why? Because their minds are at peace. They love the activity, and there is nothing at cross purposes with them.
