beware and mind share a recorded sense, so the question is not what they mean but which one fits. beware means “be on one's guard; be cautious or wary about; be alert to”. mind means “that which is responsible for one's thoughts, feelings, and conscious brain functions; the seat of the faculty of reason”. mind is the more common of the two in everyday English.
