Hai all...some thing which i read, with my masala added, is here...
we are blissful and happy and joyful when we abide in our Self!
there are 5 fluctuations of the mind:
1. Needing proof for everything - Logic is limited! Whatever that can be proved can also be disproved. Truth is beyond limited logic....but beware of the exploiters of this fact!!
2. Wrong Knowledge - ie Projecting our ideas and thoughts and perceptions on whatever situation, events and people we face!
3. Fantasy and Hallucinations
4. Sleep - or sleepy state
5. Remembrances of all our old memories or living in the past.
When all of the above 5 modifications of our mind exist, we may lose our inner joy, peace and bliss!
So Yoga is all about getting rid of all these mind modulations so that we stay in the present and in our natural joyful, peaceful, blissful state.
Discipline of mind is needed so that we are always joyful.
Some pleasures look good at first but will ultimately lead to misery - Rajasic
Some pleasures were never good at all and will only bring misery from start to finish - Tamasic
Some pleasures are ever lasting but may be difficult in the beginning - Saativic.
So we need to have discipline to pursue saatvic pleasures"
peacefully yours...rams
