Dear all...THIS IS FOR ALL...
We have a Body and a Mind. Mind is produced by the brain, which is part of the body.
The entire body as a whole is created by Nature in the evolutionary process.
Nature has given enough knowledge, skills, competency levels and energy in our body and mind to face the challenges in the open nature. Had we continued to live in the forests and jungles, we would have become much stronger both in body and mind during the evolutionary process.
But this comfort seeking complicated social living has resulted in no comforts and made us weak in all respects.
Nature has not created this body to live in comforts. That is why when we live in comforts, we get life style diseases!!
Had our life continued in jungles, we would not have had stress of the mind and body, to the extent we have now. When the evolution of sixth sense interacted with the social needs, we created the complex social systems, rules and regulations, beliefs, culture etc etc of the present, thereby complicating our lives and making body and mind highly stressful and disease / disorder prone. The life and living also has become miserable. Had we not got the sixth sense, we would have probably moved around happily along with other animals in the jungles.
Evolution is Natural and inevitable. So, we can't do anything about it. But all the society related things we created are within our control. The problem is when we used our nature given, evolutionary gift, sixth sense, we have not asked 'what ever i am creating, whether social systems or technologies or products or services etc as an outcome of my thoughts, inventions and discoveries, will they give me and others the Peace, Happiness, Health of body, mind and social relationships, contentment, fulfillment in life?...Will they keep this earth a habitable place for eternity?...Will this world made by people a heaven?'...(house is made by non living...home is made by living...earth is made by non living...world is made by the living!) We forgot to ask these questions. Men dominated world was selfish. Egoistic people created social systems for ulterior motives with vested interests and therefore all these complications!!
So, most of the mind disorders, psychological issues, mind ailments, negative thoughts are due to these social issues created by human beings against nature.
A brain that breathes clean air and gets the natural nutrients in natural environs producing positive stable secretions of neurotransmitters can not create negative thoughts!!
But Nature is the ultimate power, so it will win eventually!!...It will destroy everything that is created against it!!.....All the elements of society, culture etc which are not resulting in peace, happiness and good health and against Nature will vanish slowly. Else Human race will probably erase themselves and earth might again become a beautiful planet with only plants and animals and evolutions and revolutions will start again afresh and repeat as cycles!!
Now having got the sixth sense...having got this most complicated social system in place, how to live peacefully...happily...without diseases of the body and mind...100% not possible, it is difficult...but certainly we can try to go near this ideal state and live a better life and living.
Let us see some more issues of this damn body and mind...
BODY...It has certain needs and wants. Body can not achieve things on its own. It achieves these by creating the required thoughts, feelings and behaviours in the conscious mind through the subconscious mind. The activities of the subconscious mind, which are mostly body, heredity, genetics driven, are not known to the conscious mind. That is why most of the times people are not able to reason out their behaviours. Body attraction gets defined as love, all the sweet loving words are perceived and trusted as love and ever permanent, and finally blame the other person as trust breach etc. A lot can be written about these.
Body is the animal part. It wants pleasures. Mind has both animal part and human part. The body driven part of mind, created to satiate the body needs, is the animal part. Body creates the urges and cravings. It makes the mind mad. It spoils the peace, happiness and health of the mind thereby spoiling the health of the body and health of the relationships.
Therefore, all those elements of society created against Nature and our own body are the biggest culprits of our stress...spoilage of peace...spoilage of relationships...non understanding of other human beings...etc.
Can we cut away and throw off our body?....Not possible!!...But certainly we can keep it self regulated, calm, cool, stable, like still water, through the healthy life style habits...eating...clean air...healthy foods...breathing...exercises...etc etc. All these in such a way that there are no urges and cravings. Hormone secretions are stable, cool and calm. Then all the body systems will function naturally and in a stable manner that the body will behave like a human body and not like an animal part!!
When this is achieved the mind becomes free of the body. Total de-linking is not possible. But more close we go towards that condition, the better the life, living and relationships would be.
Body only gets affected by worms and micro-organisms. Body only gets diseases.
Now coming to MIND...Mind wants happiness. Natural mind is calm and cool. It is stable. It creates positive memories and experiences. It creates fantasies to keep itself balanced and meets it's difficult, unfulfilled and impossible needs and wants.
Mind has certain expectations. Most of them are society related. Expectations are from others, environment and social systems. If only these issues related to society are not there, then mind will be almost free and it will have expectations only on Nature, which can be easily handled with simple perceptions about reality. So, mind would have been literally stress free. But presently we have expectations from complicated human beings and a complicated society with suffocating infinite complicated system procedures, rules, regulations and what not!!...
Nature does not know all these crap about society and bla...bla...bla...They are not natural. Society has not been created by Nature which created this body and mind. So, most of the time when we are stressed in the mind. They are man made. Most of the unnatural man made things cause distress and take away the happiness, peace and health. Eventually spoil the relationships too.
But living inside this crap for ages has created evolutionary changes in us which by default create some stress!!
So, Mind is torn into pieces only by the body and social issues. When the society related issues are removed, and mind is de-linked from the body, then the mind is free. It achieves the status of a human mind. Body and social issues makes it an animal mind.
What will a human mind do when it is free?...It will think about this universe...Nature...people...other living organisms...analyse the causes and effects of the variables in these...it will observe them...it will identify those which are not changing....it will research them...it will observe the dependencies and independencies....it will look at the body as an external thing and think about why it ages...why it dies...why it gets affected or reacted by other micro organisms or biochemical structures...It will find answers for such questions...it will become creative...it will become intelligent...it will not think in harmful ways...it will be positive...it will be realistic...unrealistic thoughts, feelings and behaviours which are stressful are created by the body and social issues!!
Therefore, the crux is...
1. Have a healthy life style that keeps the body calm cool and stable.
2. Keep the mind de-linked from the body as much as possible.
3. Remain connected with social systems on those elements which give peace, happiness and good physical, mental and social well-being. Remain disconnected from the rest which cause damage. This is applicable to people and relationships too.
Peacefully yours...Rams...Psychologist!!
