Mind is disturbed either positively or negatively by words we hear, visual we see, smell, even weather we feel. When we hear a bad word it stir up our anger and consequently unpleasant action emerge. If we happen to see a person who betrayed us at hat moment our mind will be like volcano. If we don’t have self control emotions take over us then it will be a bitter experience and leave a permanent impression in our mind. Good smell, Pleasant weather takes us to our old happy memories like childhood days.
To keep our mind in a happy state we cannot order others to say nice words or whenever I open my eyes only good persons should come to my sight or weather should be always be pleasant.
These things and more are off our hands and cannot be controlled by us, but reacting to these things is in our hands. Generally in an unexpected situation we have three ways to act fight, flight, and freeze. There is fourth way if we have faith in god and believe that he who governs everything then we should think that this situation too came to me with thy blessing and with patience and tolerance I should get along. Accept the situation as it comes on our way and neglecting all emotions that creeps up while being in that situation. However we have to react for all situations. If we can get along the situation by remaining silence then silence is our reaction; if we have to speak say nice words which will not who hear them; if we have to act in some other manner again that should not wound others in that situation. The only thing is that our reactions should in no way wound others heart. Here we balance our mind with act of obeying god.
