THE MIND

I have wondered often how does our mind evolve. We are all born with the same brain , with the same white matter, gray matter , yet each one tends to behave differently. How come ? Where does this sixth sense , the instinct , esp etc etc come in to play . Oh God, Everything seems fuzzy. What are dreams , How do dreams turn into reality? How can we remember dreams? Seems still more fuzzy.Well everyone should understand the difference between the physical entity brain and something called the mind .No one has been able to find a concrete answer for it yet though there are a number of theories . What if the next generations question us about this?All we can say is that we are human beings and we are SUPPOSED to have 6th sense. Since it is not in our scope to find the answer for this;one can try to find out but only to be branded as insane ;we can discuss about what can we do to make our mind .

Well i recollect reading that the conscious part of the mind is 1/4th of the total (which i cant understand still) we all know that the mind gets trained based on how it is used , how the person is exposed and the environment of the person. Exceptions are there , persons , who inspite of their environment have overcome the odds due to their sheer will power. It's a well known fact that worries are as long as we think about it, if we ignore it nothing will bother as . If ,in our mind it is hardcoded that water is milk the we will drink water thing it as milk.

Those from biology stream would have learnt about the motor neuron experiment: a dog when provided meat at the fall of a spoon drools whenever it hears the sound of the spoon falling.The same is with us . When we train our mind accordingly to face any situation and whatever be the problem , we can cross all barriers easily .Rather than brooding about a problem and involving us with the emotional aspects of it the best way is to think of the solution with a clear mind.Most of us dont do that , which often leads to wrong decisions been taken. This will help us not only in our corporate life but also in our personal life.

Also coming to training mind, we will be occupied with our work, very difficult to think anything other than that .But the monotony of our job will make us get fed up easily with the job and will affect our personal life as well. What i suggest is that , have some hobby, make it a point to engage urself in any activity during free time, even charity. People used to say "Epo panna punniyamo ipo avan nalla irukan". Its not abt the phenomenon "punniyam", it is all abt the mind the feeling, the satisfaction that an act of charity gives that drives us."Do Good experience the same"all these concepts come under this.

Why do people say , "dream" , "think positively" and "you are what you think"? Its all about the power of mind . Some times the power of mind is so intense that what we think about others happens to them . Why? No one has been able to discover it.

Why does everyone stress on education? It is the best way to bring out the capacities of a human being if done in a proper way,as we all know it is not now ;So the best way one can enlighten himself is through self learning and introspection. Think about what u have done , and what you have achieved , its is the best way to train your mind at this juncture.

This post might seem a little fuzzy and certain things out of context; if so please ignore them as I had a number of distractions while writing this blog. Hope you spend atleast few seconds to reflect about yourself daily. if not daily once in a week. It will help you improve you a lot
