On Polarity (series)  #1 - mind and body

When speaking about human anatomy, we are largely spoken about as having just 2 parts - mind and body. Our health is said to be good enough when mind and body are functioning within the range of normal and our definition of 'normal' implies a sync between the 2. Also, our idea of 'normal' is almost synonymous with our idea of 'at least at the lower to mid level of healthy.'

I have referred here to 2 sets of vague terms having a prejudiced 'in common understanding' as having a collective agreement on the definition of these terms, when in fact if specifically asked for the definition of 'mind' 'body' 'normal' or 'healthy,' we are likely to encounter a range of values from vague to expertise, with experts variously defining 'mind' as pointing to the head but expressing characteristics that is a mix of sensory, psychological, energetic, and everything else other than tissues, and 'body' as nothing but tissues. ('Normal' and 'healthy' requires perhaps a full post each on the differences in opinion about them and the impact of lack of clarity about these on the sense of well-being of individuals and collectives. Without a well-defined goal {'normal' and 'healthy' are names of goals too} where is the journey towards? Perhaps in the general direction of it, where if the law of average applies, considering the degree of variation in the understanding of these terms, there is the risk of 'looking London going Tokyo.')

It would not be radical reductionism to distil the dichotomy to just 2 basics - visible and invisible - where our collective idea of 'body' may refer to the visible and that of 'mind' to the invisible. All around us are various objects that are made up of matter and energy (visible, invisible). For that matter, 'object' and 'subject' are again visible and invisible, respectively, in conceptual understanding with matter and object versus energy and subject ranging on a see-saw scale hinged on a threshold of tolerance, so to speak, before one gets converted into the other. (Our nature of 'Reality' is not dissimilar, for we see ideas getting converted into products everyday and products giving rise to ideas in their own time.)

In reference to the object that is a human being having mechanical and functional aspects, visible and invisible aspects are referred to as 'body' and 'mind.' Within the see-saw range hinged on the threshold of tolerance, the 'software' that is the SukshmaShareera (unmanifest body) interacts and becomes in due time the 'hardware' or SthoolaShareera (manifested body) which again interacts and informs the SukshmaShareera in the process of maturation or what is popularly called as 'ascension' where the substance of a person matures through wisening and, in my estimate, becomes 'adult.' (Collectively, we tend to call a 'body' that has grown to its fullest size as adult, but that is only the tissue body at one level of maturation determined by genes when the potential in a person at 18 or 21 years old may barely have seen the tip of recognition, if that, depending on opportunities.)
(​#DevelopmentalStages in a human being is understudied, to put it mildly, for why else will we be facing global crises like violences and ecogeographical issues if human development was seen as an ecoculture on a live medium that is the 'petridish' that is Earth. We would, certainly, be tolerant, even indulgant, of the abberrant ones like we would children who are naughty and yet to learn the ways of the world to grow up, knowing that they need loving overseeing and prompt nurturing for healthy growth, like a gardener would his garden. Like I said, some thoughts have just not been thought about, which is what I am doing - following a wise person's advise 'Be the change you want to see in the world.')

Mind, then, in my opinion, in light of the above, is energy like the steam from an engine which when directed can pull an entire train forward but if left undirected and diffuse could rot the train in stagnation. The 'train' here is the 'seed,' as in the engine of a train, which when its potential realized, with its internal combustion engine, can add boggies/compartments and become a full-fledged train pulling civilization, mankind and destiny into a new dawn.
​
​Enough said for now. Rest later.
(BTW, Nirbeeja Yoga™ is a method I offer to teach to anyone interested in learning how to direct their mind in manifesting their potential. This method is designed to integrate mind and body to function in unison, which with regular practice helps arrive at states of nirvana, so you always maintain a fresh perspective of life and live life such. It is refreshing, like having just come out of a bath every new moment as you walk through the everyday moments of life.
