Greetings Wayne L
The Mind is not perfect so you can not simply rely on the mind.
It seems to me, Wayne, what is perfection?
In a reality without things, perfection has no qualities. No time, distance, speed or mass only emptiness. So, to me, the perfect mind is no mind.
How do we follow no mind? Perhaps wu-wei.
in peace,
