balanced state of mind

While practicing the world renowned meditation technique- ‘VIPASSANA’- what I learned in the whole process I would like to share with you all. I am confident that you all will enjoy the journey of understanding the reality.(session-II)

 

Mind and its balanced stage:

The state of mind where the demerits of an imbalanced mind is fully eradicated.

 

The one who live with an imbalanced mind will be the ultimate sufferer and a sufferer throughout their life.

How a balanced mind works in a body? Let us also review now.

It gives patience, allowing one to observe the surroundings, careful listening, logical thinking, an openness to all facets of life. This is like a fishbone diagram – causes and sub-causes while trying to eradicate a major problem.

One will look at the major causes at the macro level and each major cause one can drill down for its possible sub – causes. Easy as we talk very difficult task in fact. Here one is badly in need of a balanced state of mind, even to understand the situation.

Here you are trying to train your mind and body by way of following certain defined way of your life.

If you notice at this junction, you can see that we are not directly adopting the very known many ways of meditation, on the other hand we do the ground work by way of eradicating the external problems sincerely to self in order to enable our mind to closely see and experience the reality and truth.

After seeing those realities positive as well as negative, accept immediately and move on.

Initially it will be very difficult for you to accept, you will find many ways not to accept your negative realities, generous  enough to accept your positive sides and even you will try to place  yourself one step high. These are bound to happen as you know you are in the process of overcoming this situation and this process is very difficult. Do it for a comparatively longer period ,gradually you will feel  gaining the outer control on your mind and body and make it so perfect and fertilized  land to sow the seeds of real virtue.

 

What are those seeds of virtue which will give you the happiness only  happiness in your life, we will review in the next session.

 

I write my inner feelings. If these ex-pressions  useful in any ways in your life I thank those who taught me an entirely different way of life – how to live like a human being in this society without the shade  of any religion, cast,creed and allowed me to enjoy being loved by all.
