When you Master your Mind, you Master your Life

Mind helps us to achieve success in our day-to-day practical life. The mind leads our life. Our mind can generate both happiness and sorrow. All our pains are due to uncontrolled mind. Mind is always unsteady, fickle or shaky. A clever man controls it and becomes its master. A yogi can conquer his mind. That’s why he is always peaceful and cheerful.

The mind is the root cause for all happenings. It is difficult to control mind. If you speak unnecessarily you would be wasting your mental energy. The mind always thinks about several things. We do as our mind thinks. If our mind is alright, our speech, action will be alright. When you master your mind, you master your life.

Why people differ from each other? The reason is the ability to control the mind differs from person to person. Mind and body are very closely interlinked. What mind thinks the body acts; mind and body influence each other.

Dislikes, hatred, jealousy, revenge, anger, grief, fear are all nothing but the results of an uncontrolled mind. People who inculcate such habits are unable to face life or world as it really is. The uncontrolled mind jumps, cries and fears. It is disturbed mind. It is frustrated, depressed and ultimately the mind fails to provide peace and happiness.

Mind is different from brain. The brain is only like a link that connects the mind and the body. The brain is an instrument of the mind. The brain cannot think or feel. But the mind can think and feel and even imagine. It is the mind which sees, hears, smells etc it is through the mechanism of the brain.

It is not the mind that sees, hears,smells, or does anything in the present moment,mind is a creation to provide ground for thoughts which are always in the past or future but never in the present moment.The past and future can be measured but the present cannont, how long is the present?You are the being in the present moment,you create mind,thoughts,dreams,past and future as a device for self preservation.Enlightened beings do not leave the present.

I agree completely that when you master your mind you master your life. I am a 63 year old who started back to school in 2006. I love learning. I am the happiest I have been in my entire life. I attend UCO and I have an English major. I like writing short stories and I hope to have some of my stories published, but even if that doesn’t happen the discipline and curiosity I have gained on the journey are worth every bit of effort I have put forward in my education.

To speak of mastery as a utilitarian process is wrong,it is a process of the ego or false self,true mastery is a realization of the falacy of the ego and realization of your true being at its source

If you control the mind with goals and aims is that really control? Real control comes from Awareness,not thoughts,ideas,concepts, or dreams

What does a mind look like? How do you know when you have found it?

MASTERMIND:

Mind your mind;
And-
Your mind will mind you.

Make your mind matter;
And-
Your mind will make your matter mind.

Make your mind meaningful;
And-
Your mind will make you meaningful.

Lastly;
Miraculously-
You will appear wherever your mind
has the moxie
to meaningfully
mosey.

My mind told me that I thought this posting was spectacular. Your mind controls who you really are and subsequently how you think and how you act.

Is it possible that the mind without ego would merge with both the inner and outer world? Thus becoming a part of a universal intelligence? And not contained within a small, cramp interior?

before mind acts is there an inner and outer? where are the boundaries?

also time is a creation of mind,without mind there is no past or future,and the present is not in time, it is eternity.

If the mind did not create time would their be room for thought?

You got insight on this. I totally agree with you.

Behind the created body and mind is the uncreated witnessing consciousness,it is not seen but it sees,it is without beginning or end,it is you.To witness something there has to be a space that separates it from the witness,that space is also you,its the veil that hides your true identity,where all life is one and it is also what makes change possible but any change also has its roots in the changless eternity.These words can only represent it just as the word dog is not a dog or the word car is not a car…..cling to the words and you miss it.
