Functions of Mind

                                  

There are two Functions of mind roughly:

• To concentrate and to detach or restrain, both are very necessary.
• For instance if you need to do any piece of work like reading a book, you need to concentrate on  the book and the subject
• the senses should no longer register any noise from the street, but they do carry all that noise to your mind and you may get disturbed.
• Really, if you bring interest in the street noises to zero, our senses cannot go there. We don't hear the sound at all.
• It is truth that we don't even perceive a thing if we are not at least to some extent interested in it.
• If you have that power to concentrate nothing in the world can disturb you. You are the master and the mind is slave.
• No sentiments, no emotions, no problems can disturb you.
• Restraining is a beautiful art which yields tremendous good to individual as well as society.
• If there is no restraint there is no culture, no civilization, no progress, no control on the feelings, emotions or temper.
