Effortlessness..

It is very important to make our life effortless day by day psychologically, as long as this effort and struggle won’t end in us there is no possibility for real happiness. Effortless doesn’t mean becoming dull and lazy rather being more attentive and aware.

Suppose if I am a student, it is not only important that I should memorize my subjects and get some good marks, but I should pay attention to why I am being educated? Or what is the place for education itself in human life? When I have to face exams or any other difficult situation what is the reaction of my mind to that? Slowly by being aware of what is happening inside of your brain you will not only learn the subjects but also the different fears, desires, anxieties your mind is occupied with, unless these are not understood they will be hindrance to your studies, they are loss of energy. The understanding of different psychological issues makes us free and brings new kind of energy into us, in which there is no place for conflict, so the unnecessary activity or chattering of the brain must reduce. Then we can understand only a silent mind can learn not a mind which is confused, occupied with fear, running after a particular goal or result….etc, as you have seen the state of mind required to learn something your life becomes effortless, because as a student all I need to do is learn few subjects.

One must be gentle while learning about one’s mind, to learn something we must not accept or deny the activity of our brain, we need to stay with it and play with it, it’s like a play but you need to play it seriously.
