A Zen
Mind
To live younger and healthier for longer,
you need a Zen mind.
What is Zen?
Zen is about spontaneity, which is internal
peace and harmony of the body, the mind, and the soul or spirit. Specifically,
it is about quietude of the mind. Zen is not a religion, although subsequently
it became the source of Zen Buddhism. Zen is just a way of life, with its
origin from the wisdom of Tao, which is based on the profound wisdom of the
ancient sage Lao Tzu from China .
The human mind is most powerful in that it
controls everything the body does, and therefore determines the quality of life
of an individual. Descartes, one of the great philosophers, made his
famous statement: “I think, therefore I am.” In other words, your thoughts
shape you into who you are and transform you into what you have now become. If
you can effectively control your thinking mind, you can then turn your mind
into a great asset. The pivotal role of mind power cannot be overstated.
Unfortunately, the human mind is also a
dangerous place where truths may become distorted, and where self-delusions are
also spun. The human mind generates self-doubt when you try to excel; it
confuses and distracts when you try to concentrate; it pushes you back and
forth between the past and the future when you try to focus on the present
moment. In reality, most of us seldom live in the present moment because our
minds are constantly obsessed with past thoughts, which are often projected
into the future as desires and expectations. In this contemporary world, many
of us have a compulsive mind, instead of a Zen mind, and have become addicted
to speed; so much that we want everything right away, A compulsive mind, as
opposed to a Zen mind, cannot let us quiet down, and therefore cannot let us
live younger and healthier for
longer.
Are you afraid of the sound of silence?
Your fear of the sound of silence means that your mind cannot quiets down,
because once it does, it begins to generate doubt and fear of what you are
going to do. To avoid that, you simply rush your life forward, creating stress
that is an enemy of longevity. Once you have acquired a compulsive mind, you
will begin to hear many overpowering voices from within that may become your
demons, controlling and manipulating your thoughts and hence your actions, and
subsequently your life.
To fully increase
mind power, you must develop a quiet mind—a Zen mind.
A Zen mind is a mental condition in which
the mind is totally relaxed, without regretting the past and worrying about the
future. It is relaxed because it focuses on the present moment. Focusing on the
present not only relaxes the mind and the body, but also enables the mind to
gain access to the subconscious mind to find out what is going on, with no
judgment and no expectation. It is mindfulness of self and everything
around—without that mindfulness, there is no clarity of mind, no wisdom, no
love and compassion for self and others. Mindfulness is everything, and only a
quiet mind holds the key to unlocking the door to mindfulness.
