Mind is a mess!!
Someone once told me " Its all in your mind!!...if you think it is ..then it is....if you think it is not...it is not!!" ....Very true....isnt it?....
I was mentioning to someone yesterday that human mind is a mess sometimes...Have you ever wondered how many thoughts you thought in a single minute?,,,I did...and I started counting...n counting n countng.....until I lost track!!..heheheh!!....at one time I was thinking about my work..the next sec I was thinking about the colour of the walls in my home...n then the yummy food in my refrigerator...n then about the calories I was putting on...n so on....!!!....its a never ending saga of associations!!!.....and that too ..strange ones!!!.... It is said, that by meditation, one can control their thoughts......
Whenever we attend the meditation classes, we are told that we need to keep our mind focused on one thing for ex. think about your favourite fruit...and focus only on it and not let it waver.!!!!!! But how often are we able to do that?? We start associating the fruit with something else....say we think about an apple...we may think of the red colour..n immediately jump to thinking about a red car somebody has...n then about the various cars....n then about the dream car you always wanted to buy...n so on....and our thought wanders all over the universe!!.....hence messing up all the thoughts in our mind!!!....
