The Nature of the Mind: Restless, Moving, Alive
In Indian philosophy, the mind (manas) is never described as a static
organ. It is dynamic, subtle and ever in motion. Its primary function
is to perceive, compare, recall, desire and judge: continuously.

The ancient yogis classified the mind’s fluctuations as vrittis or
waves on the surface of consciousness. Meditation is not about
eliminating these waves instantly, but about observing them with
clarity and compassion.

Why your mind wanders during meditation
Authored by: Dr Hansaji Yogendra, The Yoga Institute

cañcalaṁ hi manaḥ kṛṣṇa pramāthi balavad dṛḍham
tasyāhaṁ nigrahaṁ manye vāyor iva su-duṣkaram~Bhagwat Gita
6.34

The mind is restless, turbulent, obstinate and very strong, O
Kṛṣṇa, and to subdue it, I think, is more difficult than
controlling the wind; so, said Arjuna in the Bhagavad Gita. This is a
reality every meditator faces: no matter how earnestly you want to sit
in silence, the mind wanders. Everything from the morning’s
conversations, to the grocery list, a past regret, a painful
conversation or a future plan fill your mind the moment you sit down
to meditate. And for many of you, this wandering feels like failure.

every time one sees the almighty is going to give some effect for the
cause of long time illness that time it takes it for granted to
achieve what could not be thought about by mean people. so the
ultimatum has come on its way to subdue the effect and nobody could
sight the problem where it hangs out ultimately...
