Give Your Mind Some Rest
Posted on August 29, 2008, under Miscellaneous.
Education teaches you how to use the mind and not how to stop it so that it can relax.Even when you are asleep it continues to work; the mind knows no sleep.However, it is possible to turn the mind off when it is not required.This is helpful in two ways: One, it will give you peace, silence, which you have never known before, and secondly, it re-acquaints you with yourself, which had not been possible till now, since the chattering mind had always kept you engaged.
Learn how to say, it is enough-now go to sleep.I am awake, don’t be worried.Use the mind only when it is needed; then it remains fresh, young and full of energy.This gives your words authority, truth, sincerity and meaning.The same words that you had been words that you had been using before will now acquire more power and energy.
What the world knows as charisma, is simply a mind which knows how to relax and let the energy collect.Such a mind need not give any evidence or any logic-just its own energy is enough.A mind that is working day and nightآ is bound to become weak, dull, unimpressive, and dragging.At the most it, would become utilitarian, just useful enough for you to go about your daily activities.It won’t have power to do anything more.Many people thus often lose their chance to become impressive by allowing their mind to get crowded and worked up.
Give your mind the rest that it needs so desperately.This can be done simply, by becoming a witness to it.The mind then slowly learns to be silent and consequently powerful.Words then attain a richness, validity and quality that they have never had before.They will bypass and logical barriers and will touch the very core of the heart.
