PEACE OF MIND—FOR WHAT? Personality Development

Given this situation, the first and the most important task before every human being is to give a positive direction to their thinking which in other words refers to continuous intellectual development. There are three major sources of intellectual development—study, observation and discussion. All three are related to the mind. Only a peaceful mind will be able to take the right lessons from these sources. If the mind is not peaceful, it will not be able to draw the right lessons from anything. Mind is the only door to all kinds of personality development. Wisdom is the product of a healthy mind which in turn is a product of positive thinking. Everyone knows that for good health, one needs to take care of one's body. Similarly, for one's personality development one needs to take care to keep the mind free from all such thoughts which disturbs its thinking process. The mind is an engine. If the engine gets de-railed, then it is impossible to reach the destination. Wisdom is the greatest asset of every person. It is the ability to judge or discern what is true or right. Mind is the source of all wisdom. The source of physical energy is a healthy body while a healthy mind is the source of wisdom. Whoever fails to preserve the mind, will be deprived of wisdom. To be deprived of wisdom is to be deprived of all good things. Wisdom is the product of a healthy mind which in turn is a product of positive thinking. o Look Around We are often overwhelmed with our share of sorrows and miseries, failing to realize that everyone around us is immersed in a similar plight. We accentuate negativity when we overlook the other person's suffering.
