Mind and its play are very interesting. Mind is the reason for all the happiness and all the misery in a person's life. The success or failure of a person depends on how better the person can control his mind. The person who has control over his mind is definite to reach his goal, because he is having a stable mind. Whereas when the mind is not in the control he falls prey to the gimmicks of the mind and loses his life game. The one who has control over his mind can control the whole world. Because the whole world is within and he is within the world.
Then a question arises, when we are saying that we have to control the mind, who has to control the mind. why everyone is not able to control their minds and why they are falling prey to the mind. Then how to keep the mind in control.
Some methods which striked so as to control the mind.
First thing, donot listen to the mind and act accordingly. For example, if the mind says let us watch movie. Then obviously to win over the mind, we should not watch movie, but read a good book or do some thing.
Second thing, use the power of mind to channelise it for some constructive act.For example, make the habit of doing some regular activity, to make the mind calm, and get disciplined. Say, going to church or going to mosque or going to temple or helping old aged ones/ helping children etc.
Third thing, use the positive power of stable minds. For example, always try to be in association of people with stable and strong minds, so that we can also over a period of time make our mind strong and stable. It can be role model of ours/can be teacher/can be father/mother/brother/sister etc. It is similar to an iron piece becoming a magnet after being associated with a magnet for certain period of time.
Fourth thing, use the references of stable minded people / consult stable minded people in case of doubt, but never listen to the mind directly. Everyone faces this in their life,they will need to take decisions in their life. Without checking for the correctness, if somebody is just listening to his mind, the mind always tries to deceives a person by guiding it in the wrong way for his own selfishness.The person may not be able to know the consequences of the action which he had done by listening to his mind, but he will not be able to bear the consequences, then again he tries to escape from them. The human mind always tries for escapism, avoidance, selfishness etc. So we need to be very careful and check with stable minded people or refer to some life stories/religious books etc which provides solutions for such situations.
Age is not the criteria for a mind to play its game.Everybody in their life will fall prey to their mind, if they dont realise its potential and couldnt control it. It all depends on how we use the power of mind, whether we are able to help ourselves and people around us. For example, if a person is doing robbery, his mind says that nothing is wrong, we can do this robbery as this person is well off / or he is having additional money/ or something else. The mind always tries to project the selfish dimension ignoring the actual fact. But we should be very careful to realise the truth and act accordingly.
One can keep himself happy and others around him happy if he knows the potential of the mind and doesnt fall prey to its tricks.
