The mind is the driver of your life. As your thoughts, so are your actions and as your actions, so is your destiny. It is the thoughts of your mind that controls your mood and that decides how you would react to the different situations in your life. It is your mind that makes your destiny. However, you rarely check on your driver if it is leading you to the right destination. You rarely bother to equip your driver with the skills that can lead you through the daily battles of life. The driver continues to drive you irrationally in pursuit of happiness, but mostly getting restlessness and miseries in return.
There are three important qualities of a good driver – the driver should be well aware of the destination ; the driver should know how to drive skillfully; and the driver should know when to apply the brakes.
Satsang – the company of wise men, listening to their talks, reading their writings or being in their company, is the only means that can equip your mind with the precise skills that can enable you to lead a happy and fulfilled life. Satsang can make your mind aware about your true destination- the inner serenity and blissfulness. Satsang teaches your mind about the art of living life, how to cautiously enjoy the external momentary joys, how to apply brakes on your senses and how to dwell inside to immerse the mind in inner blissfulness.
Enlighten the driver of your life so that you can simply enjoy the ride of your life, every moment.
