PSHYCHOLOGY

PSYCHOLOGY

While Physics and Chemistry continue their work biologically, here they go beyond the gamut of matter. According to Vethathiri, it is the MIND. Mind is a well refined matter and more powerful than matter with its powerful tool called Thinking. This is more to an individual as Self and its refinement comes from the way one live – as per the 5 principles of virtuous living and mind training.

(Wherever the word man is used it includes woman also.) Biologically evolved man is endowed with the 6th sense – the ability to think. Thinking is also a part of the Bio magnetic conversion and consumption. While matter remained as a part of nature and all living beings up to animals used nature as it is, it is only man who is able to convert nature to his comforts and convenience. This shows the power of his thinking mind.

Though man by size is a speck of a dust compared to universe, has a fleeing life time compared to the life time of stars, but has the power of mind much greater than the universe. Only because of this capacity man is able to study the secrets of nature and use it to his advantage.

Unfortunately the mind has evolved from the past nature of animal instincts with its roots based on the 5 senses, it tends to behave intoxicated with brutal power and sensory comforts. Therefore man needs a refined thinking and a better mind training. The present education system has grossly failed and made things worse.

Help the sufferings to the extent possible. ( Develop habit of helping others)

Individuals must think to decide to act. Reflexive actions are for non thinkers. Train mind to think cool and act in harmony with nature. After all man is a product of nature, he enjoys when he is in harmony with nature and suffers when he is in disharmony with nature.
