The moment you give up that there is nothing that can be done about the way the mind moves - all you can do at the max is silently watch it - that's when you are perceiving. The mind despite any sort of spiritual training has its own instinctive desires, intellectual desire and desires of various sorts including occult powers. The mind is a lie and a lie cannot give you truth - my gurudeva said soon after he realized the self.
One of the other gurus sri amma bhagavan says - only when the mind/ego completely gives up in surrender - that there is nothing you can do about it - that's when grace starts flowing - that's the moment it happens. Stillness itself is knowledge and bliss. As i type this i realize how the mind keeps taking us in circles on and on leading us nowhere. Regulation of breath and a keen observation (mindfulness) can only give you glimpses of the volatility pf the mind.
