Hi all

just some thoughts...wanted to share!!

 

'I' for now is nothing but my mind.my soul is nothing but a

 

part of supreme conciousness.

'you' surrender to 'god' is nothing but surrendering your

 

mind to your soul.i.e giving up mind conciouness and being

 

in soul consciousness.

'MIND' a mysterious thing.just as this expression says"he

 

who knows a clay,knows all the clay in the world"

he who understands his mind understands all the minds of the

 

world.

at one time it is full of satva gunas(noble state),when

 

stressed or provoked it slips to rajo gunas(material and

 

selfish state) and when tempted slips to tamo

 

gunas(lazy,drowsy,careless state).

when the mind is in noble state it forgives even its worst

 

enemy,when it is in rajas state it finds faults with every

 

one that doesn't concede with it.when in tamas it does things

 

which lead it to ignorance.

Thoughts in other words 'vrittis' rise every other second

 

and the mind occillate among these gunas.

untill and unless you freeze your mind and be 'guna

 

rahitha' (without gunas) you cannot know your soul or self.

the pause between two thoughts is the state which is being

 

searched for!!! just a prolonged state of it is what we need

 

to know.

a child has no mind.any praise or appreciation will not

 

bring smile on its lips and any blame or critic doesn't make

 

it sad. even if you hurt the child,it just cries for the

 

bodily pain but does not hold the grudge. this is because the

 

child is devoid of these three gunas or characteristics of

 

mind.

just as mindful state is essential to succeed in material

 

world, a mindless state is essential to succeed in spiritual

 

world.

will one ever be able to conquer the mind? yes, just as you starve

 

your body to gain control over it's growth. starve your mind

 

with discrimination and dispassion.

with 'understanding the mind' as first step, and dispassion

 

as the next, one should be able to conquer one's mind.

 

just some thoughts...wanted to share!!

 

Thank you all!
