![]() One could thus figure out the basic fabric of mind’s making with a fair amount of precision, as energy knows no bias, and make necessary amends. For, it is based on the energy mapping of the cosmos at the time of one’s birth, which serves as a measure of Karmic imprints carried over from the past. Here comes the role of Astrology, which may help identify and overcome mental limitations. ![]() And in egotistical overdrive, often one does not feel the necessity to invoke buddhi for due diligence. The irony, however, is that often, our ahamkara (the sense of ‘I’ consciousness), identifies itself with the inherent mind-trends, and then gets tempted to passionately pursue them. But bear in mind buddhi does not play out involuntarily. For, intrinsic to buddhi is the sense of dispassion, applying which, we may judge things aptly, and accordingly make necessary amends. If, however, we invoke our buddhi (the faculty of discriminate intelligence), we could filter off the undesirables and make a reasoned choice in life. Should we just leave ourselves to the usual thought flow of mind, we remain stuck to their implications. The question now is: Are we just a slave to our indwelling Karmic imprints? Paradoxically, the answer is both yes and no. The habits and attitudes define the quality of efforts put in. According as the desires nursed, mind excites corresponding thoughts, which then gravitate following reflection in the laboratory of mind, translate into action. These impressions involuntarily define individual specific belief patterns, which holds the key to inherent desire-trends, habits and attitudes. For an answer, a look into the chemistry of mind becomes imperative.Įach mind primarily gets going on the premise set by a stockpile of Karmic imprints carried over from past, as a sequel to cause-effect chain driving all actions on the part of a being. The question now is: What accounts for varying thought trends of an individual, characterising each being as unique? Even twins are found to be exhibiting varying mind-tends. So it is said: “As you think, so you become.” Evidently, the character and content of thought define the way we conduct in life, which in turn, account for the fruits of action we become due for. What we are tempted to target in life, or the way we respond or react to external promptings are guided by indwelling thoughts. The kindest people you will ever meet can be struggling sometimes and I think more people need to realize this.Perception drives a being, which is characterised by thoughts playing through the mind. Not just because I watched my mom be labeled as her illness, but because I just think that it is wrong to judge someone without truly knowing them. The nicest people are often dragged down, left out and forgotten due to this mental state and I absolutely hate it. She was actually able to help him over-come the addiction, which he had already started to beat on his own, and she was able to see him as a PERSON and not a walking addiction. One of my friends' boyfriends had a drug problem and everyone initially told her that he was horrible, bad news, etc. Too often, the kindest people are not separated from their addiction. Addiction is a beast it changes the person who has to deal with it. You may not be aware of your addiction, but it takes a different toll on your mind than a normal habit will.Īlso- if you're dealing with addiction instead of habit, then this quote is irrelevant. Addiction, on the other hand, attacks the mind and makes you aware. Habits aren't always in your mind, they can be physical and you may not even be aware of them. ![]() It's hard to explain but they are two different things completely. ![]() Yes, an addiction is a habit, but it is separate from other habits. I'd like to take a moment and classify habits as something COMPLETELY different than addiction. ![]() yes, there is the possibility for it to become a habit. And once you say something, yes, you have said it and people KNOW you have said it, or done it depending. what you think, you do often tend to say without thinking about. The main point of it is that your mindset truly determines who you are as a person, and what you think often can be shown in your actions. ![]()
