~ Thought Pollution...~

How to purify your thoughts – as eyes are the intake unit for images that you see and ears are the receptors of sound – they both are notorious to form a homogenous mix of thoughts that gets created in your mind – thoughts that are notorious of your seeing and hearing….

It is not the pollution in the air that affects your health but more so, it is the corrupted thoughts in your mind that makes you feel corrupted or differential in the society – the resultant depression and other mental illnesses on the rise are a clear vortex of these.

When you hear a 10^th class student ending his life due to academic pressure, the gravity of problem gets bigger – mental illness is a problem inflicting not only old or the middle aged, it has very much creeped in society in students and your lads… one wonders what will happen when they face the ‘Real Challenges’ life offers them on a day to day basis – when they leave the cool comforts of school and college life!

Be whatever, the concept of ‘GIGO’ – garbage in garbage out stands good in stead in these fast-changing time – so purifying your ‘Garbage’ of thoughts to be processed by the brain holds strict precedence – in order to live a hale and hearty life , one needs to be constantly self-evolving and nurturing good and positive thoughts.

So what is the answer to all of these anomalies which have started to persist in our decaying society – It is ‘Meditation’ and ‘Bhakti’ – yes, these two words sound quite mundane, but now a days it seems to be real remedy to obtain that absolute ‘Bliss’ for which you came in the human form – though we have tied our happyness and bliss to materialism and our sense of achievements.

Just the other day ,I met a somewhat happy looking soul who was out with his dog and was talking to him as if he was all ears and understanding what his master was saying – to my amazement the dog acted on the same lines what he was asked to do – this seems to be wonder to my eyes and senses – as I had never seen such a sync alignment between the  canine and his master – when asked, the old man said, I am alone and my only happy go lucky companion is my dog – he understands me and my temperament – it is him that keeps me going – my son and daughter are settled outside India and they don’t pay heed to me – my wife is no more – but I have found my ultimate happyness in adopting and befriending this canine!

All of us want that good companion who hears us patiently and is a fun to be with – loneliness is the worst growing ill in this society – the unending chase of materialism is breaking the concept of joint family , thereby shattering the ethos of a family structure societies abide by – the worst is yet to come though – the more lonely one gets, the more instable he / she is – the thought pollution and sense of disregard creeps in over a passage of time – it is then one needs that helping hand for support and tread the boat of life….the pollution of thought is everywhere to banish your existence – if you don’t pay heed to it now, no one will….
