"The mind can never follow the heart". Wrong and misleading statement. The mind can, and usually follows the heart. What we really are is what's in our heart, not in our minds. A wicked heart will always influence a mind to say or do wicked things. And a pure heart will always influence a mind to say or do pure things. You can indeed control and destroy the mind, but you can never do that to the heart. Vivid example: communism was able to control and even destroy the minds of millions, but when it fell, the hearts were there, untouched.
