H2M (Heart, Head, Mind)

by | Jul 11, 2011 | Misc

We all have got three permanent workers for us 24×7 i.e. H2M i.e.
  1. head or intellect
  2. heart
  3. Mind

Three of them are interconnected with each other hence affecting each other. With our head we should be able to stabilize the mind and concentrate and yet the mind often becomes like a small child wandering here and there. Then we understand that we are not able to be peaceful. Sometimes the heart may not like something. If someone dislikes me I don’t like it; sometimes even if someone loves me I don’t like it. It is the heart which feels and experiences these things. When the mind wanders, the intellect often gets tired in trying to control it. The person then experiences hopelessness.

When the mind is peaceful, the intellect works in the highest possible way. When a mother sees that a child is peaceless, she will sing to the child or swing the child so that the child is quiet and she can carry on with her work. In the same way, the intellect feeds the mind with good thoughts so that the mind stays quiet and happy and the intellect can get on with other work.

So, by practice keep the intellect clean. Your intellect can only remain clean if you learn how to keep your mind peaceful. If a mother wants to clean her home but her child keeps crying, she won’t be able to. She has to cajole the child. So the first aspect is to know how to really keep the mind peaceful and quiet. To do this, feed good thoughts to your mind. Let your mind rest, let it be restful, not restless. Remember: my mind is my own. I mustn’t let my mind cause me distress. I cannot slap my mind (suppress the mind); I have to give it love. By giving your own mind love, you will make it peaceful. Then you will be able to work and live properly.

For a human being to remember is something natural and automatic. It is essential in life to define what is essential for us to remember and what we don’t need to think about. We need to remember only that which gives us power, pleasure and not which drains our energy. Many remember people and situations that have given them sorrow again and again. Sometimes the pain is so intense that you are not even able to cry. When those things of sorrow are remembered and one is not able to release that sorrow, the person becomes depressed. To remember such things is not at all helpful in life. The control is in our hand. By practicing concious awareness we can lead our lives in a positive & healthy way. We should make a good use of H2M to maintain elevated life state.
