The Introvert Mind.
----------------©----------------
All admit, there is something, such a thing, that is called:
"The Mind"
When-ever this "Mind" is described as some-thing that exists, is it not the mind itself, that describes itself? Is not this really a paradox, a contradiction?
Is the One that is described as "Mind", and the one, that describes this "Mind", one and the same, or mutually exclusive, and truly very different from one-another?
That is the very essential and fundamental question and the conflict from where begins all confusion and differences, opinions and different views.
Again, and as soon as this thing, the "Mind" is designated and categorized further into the terms like "my mind", and "your mind", this conflict becomes manifold, even more complex.
Mind is consciousness and Conversely :
Consciousness is Mind. For they are but two aspects of the same and unique reality. One can't exist in the absence of the other.
As soon as this "Mind" / the "Consciousness" is given the over-tone of "me", gets the color of "me", it loses all its invincibility, becomes a mere person, "consciousness" or a "mind".
Is not "my" a thought only, that corrupts and distorts this very "Mind" / "Consciousness", that is essentially incorruptible, pristine and pure awareness only?
Before the arrival of this thought, the "me", is there any possibility, ground or place for conflict and ignorance?
Thought / "me" itself then leads the "Mind" or the "Consciousness" into believing :
"my" mind is extrovert or introvert.
The ridiculous fact is :
"me" itself is an idea, thought, concept, only.
Is not thought itself in general, and also the thought in the garb of "me", the real hurdle, the only obstacle, the very hindrance in the way of Truth?
