The Lone Mind, in moments of emptiness, we self-realize
Give a thought to the above words. You will surely realize
that in the lone moments of the day your mind runs at a different track. You
start imagining things you never noticed, your thoughts take you to a parallel
world, a world where everything is at peace, a world of your dreams, a world
where all your worries vanish, and a world where it seems you don’t need to
panic. Loneliness is not always bad for health for it initiates a fresh thought
process.
Whenever we think about the life we live in moments of
solace, we realize what we actually want, what we actually are. Throughout the
day in our fast paced life, we can never ever think of self-introspection, but
back in our rooms away from every noise, we can turn our mind into a device that not only thinks but also solves,
a device that not only solves, but also clears out confusions. In moments of
solace only enlightenment occurs. In Indian mythology too, we see sages and
saints trying a path to moksha or enlightenment only after they attain
loneliness through a hard ‘Tapasya’ that help them in introspecting the inner
path to the almighty.
Loneliness or emptiness is not always negative. It is not
that I am aversive to being social or avoiding the world in the path to
self-realization, but it is important to let oneself discover his own path
himself which can only be possible if he sits back and enjoy the benefits of
being a loner. In the emptiness, the path to enlightenment is present that can
guide one whole life into a fruitful future. Without self-meditation, no one
can ensure clarity in mind and heart, and if a person is not clear at heart and
mind, he cannot fulfil any of his commitments toward the society or family.
Meditation is the core of creativity and to achieve the best results of
meditation it is equally important to cut away the chords that grip the modern
individual into a dilemma of what to do and how to do and find the clear path
of future, not in the outer world but the world within.
There is happiness in each heart, and there is God in each
heart, and we become distant from contentment and happiness when we distance
ourselves from our own self. Think, believe and receive. Think well, believe
good and receive the best. And to think well it is necessary to think about
one’s own self.
