Mind and spirituality


What is the obstacle between you and your discovery of spirituality? It is our mind. Therefore, if there is any obstacle between the soul and the God, it is truly our mind. It is well saying “He who conquers the mind is Lord of all man kind” If you subdue your mind, you not only subdue the whole creation, but also it’s Creator. If there is one worst enemy of all in the world, it is our mind for at one time it is our friend, at another our foe. If you consider the matter carefully, you will discover that it is under the influence of the mind that religion fights against religion; nation fights against nation, and brother against brother, and each wish to get the best of the other. We often make plans to harm others. The main architect of all this is our mind. Therefore, as long as we do not control the mind, we can not realize the God and become one with Him. Our soul was originally pure, spotless and holy, but because of its association with the mind, it has become extremely impure and unclean. The water in clouds is pure, but when it falls on the earth as rain, it mixes with soil and gathers many impurities. The condition of our soul it’s like that of rain. Our discovery of spirituality will began when we will save our soul from inputs of mind. The soul of a child is pure, carefree and holy. If you want to discover divinity be like a child, fearless, stress free, lovable, smiling and pure.
