includes the concept of thinking, reasoning, perception and working of the brain.
The faculties of the brain, cover both evident levels, conscious and sub-conscious.
The natural process helps to overpower confusion, fear, anxiety, stress, pain,
sorrows, shocks and despairs; to be up and doing. The mind in certain persons
feels that mind is separate from the body but near soul. Please consider that the
sense of mind means ‘the thought’ inside our head, so as to make up our mind,
change our mind and know our mind. The unconscious mind is always busy removing
all the problems facing the man in actual life. Thus, the mind generally means the
ability to be aware of things, to think and feel spiritual power, and acquire
intellect of body.
The mind has the power of knowledge perception, thinking, judgment, language
and memory. It holds the qualities of recognition and appreciation and is responsible
for processing feelings and emotions resulting in attitudes and actions. The emotions of love, hate, fear and joy are

frustrations, longs to enjoy liberty and greatness.

qualities, particularly in the spirit of sacrifice and helpfulness. These
efforts ennoble, elevate and enlighten the mind for being near to divine power.

levels of life. Love is the very essence and elixir of life. Respect is
commanded and not demanded. Tolerance like forgiveness is a sign of maturity of
mind and is conductive to keeping the mind calm and unruffled. Let us be humble
when crowns our efforts and accept defeat. Humor requires a clean and broad heart.
Please believe that God alone is perfect and follow His perfection for mind.
Hunan beings have to acquire Godhood during the moments of sublimity and
creativity. The person who cherishes the love in totality attains health and
happiness.
Control through Divine Power:
Religious devotion enables every person to acquire control over mind,
senses and the body. It also attains the union of the individual soul with
universal spirit. The prayer and meditation can be held in silence of mind,
although it is true to enhance silence. This quality can enable to understand
the voice of Divine and attain enlightenment. The silence holds the key of
peace, strength and stability of mind. The people must learn to control the
mind with the spirit of love, in order to get over the consistency in life.
Meditation increases the power of thinking, concentration and memory. It
also opens the gateway to inner evolution, transformation and spiritual bliss.
It makes the man calm, composed and courageous. Meditation is the quickest
remedy for all the disorders and disturbances of mind (including body). Your
spirit of devotion and compassion, tolerance and forgiveness, service and
sacrifice, cooperation and help, and your faith in the Divine grow from more
and more. Peace comes from the absence of evil, ignorance and hatred.
