________________ scriptures also advise us not to react to a person with unsound mental health. Then how can you not accept a disease for which there is no remedy or a circumstance for which there is no solution ? You have to work hard to maintain your physical fitness. The athletes and sportsmen have to continuously practice to keep their bodies fit and agile. The wrestler has to give top-most priority to exercise in his daily routine activities. The singers who have been endearing the audience with their sweet and melodious voice also continuously rehearse their voice. The actors also rehearse before they perform on the stage. Similarly, repetition and revision is necessary to retain the memory power of the brain. The learned scholars say that if you stop revision of grammar notes for merely a fortnight and put them in the attic, those grammar notes will forever remain in the attic. If you leave the company of logic for even a moment, then it will leave you forever. If so much practice is necessary for remaining merely physically and mentally fit, then conquering the mind is an extremely difficult feat to attain. For achieving that you have to continuously cultivate the mind. You should consider the happening of something different, unexpected or unforeseen as a training session for conquering the mind and not lose such an opportunity to cultivate the mind's power. You can program your own happiness by training the mind with the happening of every such adverse event and learn to retain your composure. MIND YOUR mind : 121 - - -
