Guest guest Posted May 18, 2007 Report Share Posted May 18, 2007 Chinna KathaA man visited a mental asylum, he found a decent and sane - looking young gentle man sitting in one corner of the room. He was talking to himself in ecstasy. Visitor asked the caretaker what's the matter. Caretaker explained that he was deeply in love with a lady named Roja and Roja married somebody else. In the very next room there was yet another person. He was decent and sane - looking young gentle man sitting in one corner of the room. He was talking to himself in ecstasy. Having asked, the warden said, "He was the person who married Roja." So the problem was not with Roja. But with the mind set of these two youngsters. Mind is the mischief-maker.mana eva manusyanam karanam bandha-moksayon bandhaya visayasango muktyai nirvisayam manah (Amruta-bindu Upanisad 2)"For man, mind is the cause of bondage and mind is the cause of liberation. Mind absorbed in sense objects is the cause of bondage, and mind detached from the sense objects is the cause of liberation." Therefore, the mind that is always engaged in Krishna consciousness is the cause of supreme liberation As posted in by: "vishnuprasadmulpuri" <vishnuprasadmulpuri Friday, October 13, 2006 11:41 AM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
