Guest guest Posted July 8, 2007 Report Share Posted July 8, 2007 The mind has no distinct form or shape. It assumes the shape or form of the thing it is associated with. Wandering from wish to wish, flitting from one desire to another - this is its nature. Thus, the mind is the cause of joy and grief, of elation and depression. It is worthwhile for man to know the characteristics of the mind and the ways to master it for one's ultimate benefit. The mind is prone to gather experiences and store them in memory. It does not know the art of giving up. Nothing is cast away by the mind. As a consequence, grief, anxiety and misery continue simmering in it. Give up what has to be cast away, know what has to be attained, then, Ananda (bliss) becomes your nature. So give up the idea of the world being real; know the reality of the Self and attain the Source, the Brahman (God). - Satya Sai Baba As written at PRASANTHI NILAYAM TODAY http://groups.msn.com/ Answers - Get better answers from someone who knows.
