HOW TO HANDLE THE MIND
👀👀
THROUGH THE PRACTICE OF YOGA, HOW CAN ONE TRANSCEND THE MIND?💫💫
👉❤
ANS: THE WHOLE PROCESS OF YOGA IS TO TRANSCEND THE LIMITATIONS OF THE MIND. AS LONG AS YOU ARE IN MIND, YOU ARE RULED BY THE PAST, IF YOU ARE LOOKING AT LIFE ONLY THROUGH THE MIND, THEN YOU WILL MAKE YOUR FUTURE JUST LIKE THE PAST, NOTHING MORE, NOTHING LESS. ISN'T THE WORLD ENOUGH PROOF OF THAT? IF DOES NOT MATTER WHAT OPPORTUNITIES COME OUR WAY THROUGH SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGYAND MANY OTHER THINGS, AREN'T WE REPEATING THE SAME HISTORICAL SCENES AGAIN AND AGAIN?
IF YOU TAKE A CLOSER LOOK AT YOUR OWN LIFE, YOU WILL SEE THE SAME REPETITION HAPPENING, BECAUSE AS LONG AS YOU ARE FUNCTIONING ONLY OLD DATA. THE PAST IS CARRIED ONLY IN YOUR MIND. ONLY BECAUSE YOUR MIND IS ACTIVE, PAST EXISTS. SUPPOSE ALL YOUR MIND CEASES RIGHT NOW, ONLY PRESENT, BUT PAST EXITS THROUGH OUR MINDS. OR IN OTHER WORDS, MIND IS KARMA. IF YOU TRANSCEND THE MIND, YOU TRANSCEND THE KARMIC BONDAGE ALTOGETHER, IN ONE STROKE. IF YOU WANT TO SOLVE THEM ONE BY ONE, IT MAKE A MILLION YEARS. IN THE PROCESS OF SOLVING, YOU ARE ALSO BUILDING NEW STOCK OF KARMA.
👉❤
YOUR OLD STOCK OF KARMA IS NOT THE PROBLME AT ALL. YOU SHOULD LEARN HOW NOT TO CREATE NEW STOCK. THAT IS THE MAIN THING. OLD STOCK WILL WEAR OUT BY ITSELF, NO BIG THINGS NEED TO BE DONE ABOUT IT. BUT THE FUNDAMENTAL THING IS YOU LEARN HOW NOT TO CREATE NEW STOCK. THEN, LEAVING THE OLD STOCK IS VERY SIMPLE.
ONCE YOU LEARN HOW NOT TO USE THE MIND AND SIMPLY LOOK AT LIFE, IT IS THE ULTIMATE GAME YOU CAN PLAY, BECAUSE THE ULTIMATE BECOMES AVAILABLE TO YOU ONLY THROUGH THAT. THROUGH THE DISTORTIONS OF THE MIND, YOU CANNOT PERCEIVE ANYTHING.

HAVE YOU HEARD OF THE WORD "BUDDHA"? WHEN I SAY "BUDDHA" YOU ARE ALWAYS THINKING OF THAT PARTICULAR MAN - GAUTAMA THE BUDDHA. GAUTAMA IS NOT THE ONLY BUDDHA, THERE HAVE BEEN THOUSANDS OF BUDDHAS ON THIS PLANET, AND THERE STILL ARE. HIS SECOND NAME IS NOT BUDDHA, HE IS GAUTAMA SIDDHARTHA. HE BECAME A BUDDHA.
WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BECOME A BUDDHA? "BU" MEANS "BUDDHI" THE INTELLECT. ONE WHO IS ABOVE HIS INTELLECT IS A BUDDHA. ONE WHO IS IN HIS INTELLECT IS A NON-STOP SUFFERING HUMAN BEING. NO MATTER WHAT IS HAPPENING, HIS ANXIETIES, HIS FEARS, HIS NONSENSE, HIS CONFUSION WILL NEVER GO AWAY AS LONG AS HE IS IN THE INTELLECT.
👉❤
HAVE YOU NOTICED THIS? NO MATTER HOW WELL YOU ARE PLACED, CONSTANLY THE MIND IS STRUGGLE. YOU THINK EVERYTHING IS PERFECT, BUT YOU TURN BACK AND SEE, YOUR ANXIETIES AND YOUR FEARS ARE SITTING RIGHT THERE BEHIND YOU LIKE YOUR TAIL. IT FOLLOWS YOU WHEREVER YOU GO. YOU LOOK AT THE SUNRISE AND YOU FORGET ABOUT EVERYTHING, BUT WHEN YOU TURN BACK AND SEE, IT IS RIGHT THERE. IF YOU WERE BELOW THE MIND, YOU WOULD NOT KNOW THIS KIND OF SUFFERING.
IT IS BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE UNABLE TO BEAR THE TORTURE OF THE MIN THAT THEY HAVE DEVISED MANY WAYS IN SOCIETY TO GO BELOW THE MIND. EXCESSIVE EATING, ALCOHOL, EXCESSIVE INDULGENCE IN PHYSICAL PLEASURES, THESE ARE WAYS TO GO BELOW THE MIND. PEOPLE USE THEM AND FOR A FEW MOMENTS THEY CAN FORGET THE TORTURE. YOU HIT THE BOTTEL AND SLEEP. FOR A FEW HOURS, YOUR MIND DOES NOT BOTHER YOU ANY MORE BECAUSE YOU HAVE GONE BELOW THE MIND. THERE IS A GREAT PLEASURE AND IT IS SO RELAXING BECAUSE SUDDENLY, THE TORTURES OF YOUR MIND ARE NOT THERE. SO YOU GET DEEPLY ADDICTED TO IT. BUT THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS GOING BACK. IF YOU GO BELOW THE MIND BY USING A CHEMICAL, LIFE ALWAYS CATCHES UP WITH YOU WITH MORE INTENSITY AFTER THAT IS OVER, SUFFERING INTENSIFIES.
👉❤
ONCE YOU HAVE THIS DISTANCE, YOUR ABILITY TO USE THE MIND IS TREMENDOUSLY ENHANCED. SO IF SOMEONE SAYS, "YOU ARE OUT OF YOUR MIND", DON'T FEEL INSULTED. IT IS THE HIGHEST COMPLIMENT. THEY ARE SAYING YOU ARE A BUDDHA. PEOPLE USUALLY UNDERSTAND "OUT OF THE MIND" AS MADNESS. MADNESS IS OF THE MIND. AS LONG AS YOU ARE IN THE MIND, YOU CANNOT ESCAPE THE MADNESS. YOU MAY EITHER BE IN SOCIALLY ACCEPTED LEVELS OF MADNESS OR YOU MAY CROSS THAT SOCIALLY ACCEPTED LEVEL, BUT SOME LEVEL OF MADNESS IS GOING ON IN EVERYONE. IF YOU ARE OUT OF THE MIND, CAN YOU BE MAD? ONLY IF YOU ARE OUT OF THE CIRCUS OF YOUR MIND, YOU WILL BE HUNDRED PERCENT FREE OF MADNESS.
