Accident & Control What is the cause of the accident? Very simple the cause of the accident is losing control of our self by any reason. On Sunday we were traveling from alibaug to Mumbai. The road had single lane so there was very slim chance to deviate from the same path hence we were travelling very safely with the controlled speed. Suddenly we saw in front of us, the car was trying to overtake the truck in the opposite direction & in that hurry the car covered our lane also. Thank god they were little far so that we could manage to avoid accident & to adjust our speed. Though we are right from every aspect of driving & also following traffic rules but, if we don't want to meet to accident because of the others mistake then it is mandatory to stop our vehicle. in the same way it is also true that I can't control the other vehicle but what I can do is I can control my vehicle. After this incidence a thought came in my mind that it also happens with us in day to day life. Though my intensions are right, I am trying to do well to others but still someone comes exactly in different direction, opposing me & my thoughts, always trying to accuse me of selfish & ulterior motive. What should I do?? The same thing I need to do which we did with the car in above example…first to control myself because I can't control the other person...Next person can damage me but if I don't want that accident then I should stop myself from that reaction. Why should I lose my mind state for others mistake. Self control is the key to avoid misery. I should take the control of my mind & thus of my body. Often we lose control of mind & react to people's expression. If they appreciate me I feel honored & happy as well as the moment they abuse me or criticize me I feel shame or I feel bad but the question arises why my happiness or sadness depends on others? why I feel that only other's appreciation to me will make me happy & others blame can make me sad that means, others are controlling me & my mind state. It is like televisions when you have remote control in your hand you can switch in between any channel so don't give your remote control in the people's hand. Don't be their toy. Make happiness your property & decide that anyone's reaction good or bad will not affect my state of mind of being stable. Those reactions can't make me sad or happy rather i will always be in the same state of happiness. We often react very wrong at the same instant & after some time I realize that my reaction was wrong. Often it happens when our mind is under state of anger. Anger & intellectual can't go hand in hand. When we come out of anger we realize that what I said in anger was totally wrong that's because of absence of intellectual in anger but presence of mind gives me command of the situation so the first thing I need to do is to control & stabilize my mind. The mind is the operator of our body. We know the example of steering & car. Wherever the steering will turn it is definite that the car will move in the same direction. Same thing happens with the mind & body. Our mind acts as a steering & thus our body becomes a car. Wherever our mind will move it is bound that our body gestures, postures or in totality our body language will change & that will result in to change of our personality. Dietician ones advised that please don't eat heavy food & sweets that can increase fats in your body & while giving this instruction he also mentioned that don't even think to have it because even if you will think that you are eating it that will make damage to your body which you would have experienced after eating. I can give you an example think about the sweet which you like to eat…..what happened??? it should have started mouth watering because some elements in our mouth reacts to our thinking which results in mouth watering so it is very much important to control our mind as our body reacts to it. If I am under my control then only it is possible to help others or else I will become the reason for making others fall. How can I help the falling people when even I am also falling but I can surely lift them up only when I am in the higher position. Now it's not the selfishness to make our self strong, because my intension is to help others. We often experience this while traveling in flights where in the precautions announcement we hear that at the time of turmoil the oxygen mask will appear in front of us then first thing we have to do is to wear that oxygen mask & not to make others wear without wearing to self. Because if I am ok then only I will be in state to make others all right if I want to give peace to the world then it is very much important to have peace inside me. So the control of mind will not only save me from accident but it will also give me stable state of real happiness with the satisfaction of helping others.
