Yes... I have restarted the blog with a new look and hopefully a better one :).
Sometimes I sit and ponder, y does my mind get refreshed with the memories of past ?? be it some of the happiest moments or some of the most sorrowful moments. Whenever the mind is idle it immediately delves into the past ( sometimes the mind starts thinking about the future ). The mind 'is' not in the present. Is this an intricate quality of the mind ??? I have been trying to understand this phenomenon and have not succeeded. Even now am thinking about it. It is said that mind needs to be controlled in order to keep it in the present. Meditation is considered as one of the best means of achieving this control over mind. Some learned men and women have also advocated 'freedom of mind' wherein u let go of the mind. Here comes duality and conflict. Which of these is the correct means? Should one be a slave of his/her mind or should the mind be the slave ??? well in the latter case ... what shall be the mind slave to ? Is it ones 'intellect' ? sm still pondering .........
