The different states of mind.

The different states of mind.

The mental state of a being can be classified in happiness, sorrow, indifference, and peace and true joy. We know the tides of see raises and collapses. Similarly the mental peaks are life’s alternating joys and sorrows. The hollowness in between this is the indifference or boredom. These are the three different mental states.

By looking at the face of a person on can judge the mental sate of a man. Whose face registers happiness what has made him happy? If his desire is fulfilled and satisfied he got a raise. The fulfilled desire gives him happiness and joy.

At the same time a glum faced man his expressions tells us that he in unhappy with the same depression. The desire contradicted produce happiness. The desire for health is contradicted by pain. The desire for money is contradicted by poverty and so on.

Some people are indifferent. If you ask them are you happy their answer is no. Once again if you ask why you are not happy they try to convince you with so many illogical answers knowing fully well that they are not confident that what they are answering. Because of their mental condition they are indifferent. Their soul is an intermediate hallow. That, in such neutral state of indifference

One cannot remain, indefinitely on the crests of either buoyant happiness or turbulent sorrow. Or in the dumps of boredom. The competing dualities the ordinary being is tossed up and down rising on a wave or joy, sinking in to the troughs of indifferences and then getting tumbled by a wave of sorrow. They little know any thing beyond these states of consciousness to be jostled about is to surrender free will to a seemingly capricious destiny.

If the mind is even then one lives successfully and satisfactorily. This can be attained only by concentration mastery and mental faculties. Even most terrible sorrow can be healed by Time. Nothing is gained by relieving it every day. Sorrowing for some one who is gone does not help him or yourself, nor does it change the sad fact. Making yourself miserable by nurturing an inferiority complex or punishing your self for the mistakes you committed earlier or failures you have faced will not get you any where: it paralyzes your mental faculties. Never allow yourself to get in to negative mental ruts. And do not be bored with life either. That is very uncomfortable state. It slowly stews you. Do not bake your self and your potentialities in the oven of indifference.
