Compos Mentis, Lux Mentis

Compos Mentis: having mastery of one’s mind.
Lux Mentis: light of the mind.

The light is pure consciousness.
We are the light of consciousness.

If we have no mastery over our mind,
we are non-compos mentis: of unsound mind.

If we have no mastery over our mind,
we have no understanding or empathy.

Lux mentis is always present,
but appears dull when obscured by the mind’s ideas.
