🌷Mind🌷

1. What is mind? Where is it?

The mind is there in every atom of your body. This is what you will understand by practising Vipassana. With it, you will make an analytical study of your mind, an analytical study of your matter, and the interaction of the two.

2. You spoke about taking out the bad qualities from the mind. What does that mean?

Like you have emotions in you- feelings of depression in you-feelings of animosity towards others. All those are bad qualities. They keep you unhappy. With these you harm yourself and you harm others. Little by little you have to take them out. And you will enjoy great peace of mind.

3. What is the connection between the mind and the brain?

The brain itself is just a physical organ. As you deal with other parts of the body, you deal with the brain in the same way, that's all. Nothing special to do with the brain. But the mind is totally different. In the West, all importance is given to the brain as if the mind is located here. Nothing doing, it is everywhere. The mind is in the whole body. So give attention to the whole body.

4. If you purify the body, you purify the mind?

No. Even though you purify the body, the mind may remain dirty and it will again make the body impure. So the root is the mind, not the body. The body is just the base. With the help of the body, the mind is working, but the mind has to be purified. You keep on washing your body as much as you can, but the mind is not washed. Mind remains still impure. Mind has to be pure. But if you purify the mind, the body gets purified. It has an effect. The aim of Vipassana is to purify the mind.

5. You say we are meditating (during Anapana) to sharpen the mind. How is the mind sharpened?

If you are with reality and not reacting to it, naturally the mind gets sharpened. The mind gets blunt when it reacts. More reaction makes the mind more gross. When you don't react, its natural reality is very sharp, very sensitive.

Just as a light of Candle has the power to dispel darkness in a room,
so also the light developed in one man can help dispel darkness in several others.

According to Ayurveda there are 4 aspects of life: physical, mental, social and spiritual. All four of these must be in harmony for a person to be healthy. If all four aspects of life aren’t nourished, sickness will arise. Awareness/continuity of consciousness is needed for nourishing the four aspects.
