The prophecy called Mind

The prophecy called Mind

After a long time I return to blogging with the inspiration coming from the most complex yet researched part of human body. For those who assumed I am talking about the brain.. Sorry I am not. I am talking about the Human Mind. I am motivated to write about the mind due to few thoughts, which have been flowing through my mind and how my mind has been processing it.

Every human mind is trained by self and surrounding, to process information less from self but more from surrounding in its own speed. Sometimes the mind is preoccupied with this processing and it tends to totally ignore things happening around. This is a safe state. And sometimes when there is a constant flood of thoughts, and the mind is constantly trying to increase its processing capacity, there is a state of turbulence. In software terminology we sometimes refer to this as deadlock.

This turbulence can however affect only active and aggressive thinkers. And there are very few who deploy their minds with such focus. And whenever the mind is turbulent it tends to form faster judgments and conclusions. And what comes out from our mouth after all those judgments is very tough to be perceived correctly by the listener. After all you cannot expect the same processing speeds in every RAM (Random access memory) !!

So where and what is the remedy for such critical situations we are forced into?

Whenever there is a rush of thoughts its better we postpone judgments. And if the situation does demand a quick judgment, we rather sit in solitude and decide a temporary solution which could address the imminent problem, and think about what’s to come after some time when the turbulence settles and the wave has receded :)

The next thing I was to briefly write about is the power of influence. The mind is a very smart creation and it very smartly embraces people, which is in its prime area of influence. But after an age the mind is dominated by one of the internal processes inside it and this process is called EGO. This process which is dormant in young age starts to take proportions as we age. And it is important to take that whip and goad (or) rather < –stop> this process when and where we feel it disturbs our integrity. And those to lack the skill to take that whip often end up as bad decision makers or, at least cannot make a win-win decision making.

This is just the part-1 of my writing admiring the Human Mind. I wish to at least write 25 of such blog’s tracking each of the emotions I encounter (both inside and outside) and see how excellently the mind does exception handling J. Thanks for your time and Keep thinking :)

nice post.

ego probably is a function of the person being insecure. its pivotal to get over that feeling and building some self esteem :)
