Mind: one of the two things that the body relies on; second being the heart. It is always full of undesirable thoughts, which we may never want to end in our mind. There is a lot of unnecessary stuff that our mind contains; think of it as a computer hard drive which is constantly overloaded with information and thus allowing it to perform errors. In today's life, our mind is occupied by the burden of emotional thoughts, stress, fear, caring about what others think, and overthinking something - the worthless stuff. This eventually ages the mind by feeding it rubbish things. This eludes the mind of happiness, awareness, information, and the ultimate fascination of life.
The mind can always remain young and active if used intelligently. But what is intelligence? It is the awareness of the moment. The mind needs to be creative on its own, it needs to think clearly; when this happens, the mind can never grow old. The mind can remain in a perfectly working condition until the grave.
Let's dive deep into the mind to see what magic it can do in our lives, the ways to keep our mind healthy, and eventually let it to live infinitely.
Our mind is alluring in many ways than we could think of it. The physique can age but the mind can retain its perfectly working state forever. One's mind which is aware of the moment can never run into chaos; a person can use their mind to consciously tackle any situation and calmly deal with it. If the mind is overloaded with other useless thoughts then there will be frustration and devastation of time.
Education is one of the most important blocks to building a perfect mind; it helps the brain to think in vivid ways and keeps it in an active state. Education is not something we have to finish, not something we have to just make our way through but instead try and learn new things and enrich our minds with it. A commitment to lifelong perpetual learning can grow our minds in an unimaginable way. An educated person can handle any situation with mindfulness and with the knowledge they possess, whereas an uneducated person wouldn't be able to handle unforeseen situations leading them to distress. This is the basic difference between an active mind and an inactive one (one which is growing old). With the right education comes intelligence, which lights the hope to live a better life.

The generation gap, one of the most popular topics today, is because of the manipulative mind. In today's world - full of easily accessible gadgets, teenagers think that everything can be achieved with minimal efforts, like the effort taken to touch on a touch screen gadget. Their mind has been manipulated that everything in life can be achieved with nearly no effort; they have lost the factor of patience in their life. This shows how much delicate the mind is. One of the solutions to reduce this generation gap is to train the mind with the right information; we need to know patience and the power of our fellow minds rather than living in this touch-and-tap world.
A robust mind can be achieved with several things: physical exercises, mental exercises, healthy eating habits, and meditation.
This doesn't mean that a person should only walk along the spiritual way but maintain a balance between their physical and spiritual world by pursuing happiness in daily routine with anticipating in meditation. This was a short list of examples of the magic we can achieve with our mind and the solutions to keep it able and active. Nonetheless, our mind, heart and body should be in a balanced state to bring harmony in our life.
A robust mind can be achieved with several things: physical exercises, mental exercises, healthy eating habits, and meditation.
Physical exercises can involve going to the gym, swimming, yoga, or playing a sport; by doing these sorts of things our minds can get diverted from our daily mundane routines and can experience joy.
Solving crossword puzzles, riddles, watching Sherlock, and solving math or physics problems are some examples of mental exercises.
"An apple a day keeps the doctor away" is a famous English proverb which is an instance of healthy eating habits, fruits contribute a lot to the sharpness of our mind, green vegetables are also a great source.
Meditation, the blissful way to enrich the mind, enlightens our soul showing us the path to ecstasy. Meditation helps us to connect with the inner soul of ours and get the control over the mind; with connecting to the soul we can elude the feeling of laziness from our mind. Thoughts which are a part of process going on in our little heads, which are capable of vivid visions can be controlled by meditating. Our mind is greatly influenced by these thoughts in ways like our speech, attitude and behaviour. Desire is a chain of never-ending process starting with a small urge; this can even be controlled by the practice of meditation thus helping the mind to stay young.

DeleteThis is something us as a human being should always be aware of. There is a fine line between "knowing what to do and actually do what we know". I suppose my brother here has done a splendid job explaining the first part of phrase(knowing what to do). It is up to us now, what we really want in life?
ReplyDeleteAnd of course at the end of the day you are going to reach your destination. But the important thing is how you reach there. Can you reach there faster? More smartly? Uniquely? Calmly?. If YES then why not? And why not NOW?
Always remember consistency and repetition are the crucial factors to achieve impossible. The answer lies in your routine.
Thanks for putting it out there Dhruval, cheers.
PRO TIP:Listening to music helps to calm your mind.
Ps: Watching Sherlock is indeed a mental exercise.
