MESSAGE FOR CONTEMPLATION 1185

 MESSAGE FOR CONTEMPLATION 1185

Radhe Krishna,
Have a blessed day,

MODIFICATIONS OF MIND

Swami Sivananda
Mind is soul-force. It is through mind that God manifests as the universe. Mind is made up of subtle matter. Mind is a subtle force. Prana (life-principle) vibrates in mind, and mind generates thoughts. Mind is a bundle of impressions, thoughts, desires and cravings. The seed of mind is egoism. Mind does the five functions of the five senses of perception or knowledge. There are three Gunas or qualities, viz., purity, passion or activity, and inertia, in mind. Lust, anger, greed, jealousy, pride, delusion, egoism, likes and dislikes, are waves in mind.

Without the annihilation of desires, death of the mind cannot be effected and without the death of the mind, there is no immortality.

- Swami Chidananda
