The following post is simply a myriad
of questions, that are coming to my mind. Everybody tends to become
inquisitive of their circumstances and begin to seek answers for
difficult questions. At every difficult situation(well, I must say,
not at all difficult, when compared to problems others are facing), I
tell myself, this will pass. It is surprising that, how, random words
affect our state of mind. A strange calm envelops me and gives me
courage to face the situation.
But, Is ignorance bliss? Or does
knowledge provide Enlightenment. Does gaining knowledge, make one
enlightened? For example, If I come to know, of a certain hack, that
makes a tedious task, easier, I want to share it, with all near and
dear ones, to make their life easier too. But is this, enlightenment
or, is enlightenment, a state of remaining silent and balanced in
mind. Is enlightenment, maintaining stability in times of distress
and joyful situations?
Coming to mind, there are many more
questions popping up. Mind has greater capabilities, but we tend to
bind it, to avoid, negative thought avalanche. Everybody knows that, a
positive thought, can bring about greater change, only when the
person thinking, strongly believes in this thought. Sadly, people
concentrate on negative thoughts, more than, positive ones. Is this
the cause of, suffering? May be, or may be not.
How many times, have you observed your
thought, becoming a reality? I have observed that, thoughts or
prayers for others, materialize faster, than thoughts of self. Have
you also observed this? Does this puzzle you, or enlighten you? While
I am still, surprised, how our mind, makes things happen for us.
