Avoid Depression
Of all the tyrannies of human kind, the worst is
which persecutes the mind. If you seek to understand what depression means,
both astronomically and economically, it suggests something that lowers, sinks
or a slump. Do you think it means differently with a persecuted mind? Even
psychologically it means dejection and dispiritedness.
When we pass through a
bout of depression, we displace ourselves from our true selves instead of being
displaced by some outside force. We withdraw into our own selves. Such a thing
happens to us when we are hurt, and disappointed or by the tiny pinpricks or what
we call social “slights” caused by someone in our family, office, circle of
friends. We are so “think-skinned” that others must be on guard lest offence be
taken at some innocent word or act, whenever i see people “depressed” I
question myself why i never feel depressed longer like them or sometimes feel
like experimenting by forcing my true self into a depressed mood and not
letting it out . but i sit back and be thankful to my spirit that heals me
faster and helps me bounce back sooner.
Everyone of us is not
psychologist, Needn’t be too We must accept a simple fact that many of us have
no covering over our ego. We have only the think, sensitive inner layer over
it. We need to become emotionally tougher, so that we can simply ignore petty
cut and minor ego-threats, we can even have a fair and frank talk across the
talk. Open our heart and mind . think of matters from others point of view,
build our self-esteem, and more adequate self-image so that we don’t feel
threatened by nervy chance remark or innocent act. A big strong man does not
feel threatened by s simple slight or a small ‘danger’; a little man does. In
the same way a healthy and strong mind, with plenty of self-esteem doesn’t feel
itself threatened by every innocent remark. Further, it helps us move on in
life by moving closer to people rather than “retreating “into our own cocoon”

Quote from the True charm and power of Vedanta
So the external things
can only give us the environments. These competitions and struggles and evils
that we see are not the effect of the involution or the cause, but they are in
the way. If they did not exist, still man would go n and evolve as God, because
it is the very nature of that God to come out and manifest Himself. To my mind
this seems very hopeful, instead of that horrible idea of competition. The more
I study history, the more I find with man, he would not progress. I also used
to think so; but I find now that every war has thrown back human progress by
fifty years instead of hurrying it forwards. The day will come when men will
study history from a different light and find that competition is neither the
cause nor the effect , simply a thing on the way, not necessary to evolution at
all.
The theory of Patanjali
is the only theory I thnk a rational man can accept . how much evil the modern
system cause! Every wicked man has a licence to be wicked under it. I have seen
in this country (America) physical who say that all criminals out to be
exterminated and that that is the only way in which criminality can be eliminated
from society. These environments can hinder, but they are not necessary to progress.
The most horrible thing about competition is that one may conquer the environments
, but that where one may conquer, thousand are crowded out. So it is evil at
best. That cannot be good which helps only one and hinders the majority. Patanjali
says that these struggles remain only through our ignorance, and are not necessary
and are not part of the evolution of man. It is just our impatience which
creates them. We have not patience to go and work our way out. For instance,
there is a fire in a theatre, and only a few escape . the crush was not necessary
for the salvation of the building nor of the two or three who escaped . if all
had gone out slowly , not one would have been hurt. That is the case in life. The
doors are open for us, and we cn ll get out without the completion and struggle,
and yet we struggle. The struggle we create through our own ignorance, through
impatience, we are in tow great a hurry. The highest manifestation fo strength
is to keep ourselves calm and on our own feet. Courtesy Vedanta Philosophy
But, if He exists?
I drive joy There
was a doctor in Benaras who spent 7 minutes in the morning and evening for
mediation on God. Knowing this, his colleagues and friends laughed at him. One
day they argued that he was wasting ten precious minutes on something, which he
had been misled into believing. The doctor replied, “Well, if God does not
exist, I agree that I am wasting ten minutes a day. But, if He exists? I am
afraid you are wasting your entire lifetime. I prefer to waste ten minutes
rather than a lifetime. Why should you grudge me the 10 minutes joy that I
derive 4m.
