of a sorrowful, unsuccessful and frustrated life.
Thought is a Sudarshan Chakra
Let us now examine, how thought is like a Sudarshan Chakra, i.e. a wheel of
thoughts. Just as Lord Krishna holds the Sudarshan Chakra in his hand, Man can also
possess such a Sudarshan Chakra, if he so desires. The thought process or the wheel of
thoughts, is operating continuously in Man's life. The common experience is that, Man
gets entangled in this wheel of thoughts, with the result that he is puzzled and confused.
This confusion develops into his failure and frustration with the result that he either tries
to avoid the burden of his worldly life or gets crushed under it. Hence, instead of getting
entangled in this wheel of thoughts, Man must knowledgeably and skillfully handle this
wheel of thoughts to derive beneficial results. Generally Man gets entangled in this wheel
of thoughts, because he is ignorant about the thought process in his mind. Also, not only
is he ignorant that these thoughts are extremely powerful, but he is equally ignorant that
this wheel of thoughts can make or mar his life. Hence, being ignorant about this wheel
of thoughts, Man gets entangled and trapped in it and ultimately wrecks his life. The
reason for this damage is that being ignorant about this wheel of thoughts, he
continuously thinks negatively, contemplates inauspiciously thereby inviting various
difficulties, calamities, ailments and sorrows. Hence JEEVANVIDYA emphatically advises
that,
Man must not get entangled in this wheel of thoughts, but he must master the art
of handling this wheel successfully in order to ensure a beautiful life.
A question may now arise, "How can Man achieve this objective?" The answer is
quite simple. Firstly Man must acquire the art of observing his thoughts, then he must
learn to master them and finally he must direct them towards the desired goal. The
person who masters this art, becomes eligible to eliminate destructive, unhealthy,
disharmonious and negative thoughts while at the same time he is able to cultivate
constructive, healthy, harmonious and positive thoughts. In this process, he acquires the
skill of continuous visualisation of healthy, elegant thoughts and becomes the holder of
the wheel of beautiful, blissful thoughts.
Once Man becomes the holder of this wheel of blissful thoughts, or when this
wheel starts revolving around him, he starts experiencing miracles in his life.
Adverse circumstances, unfavourable things, persons with evil intentions cannot
approach this man and in case, they had access to this man earlier, then they
automatically start drifting away from him. Besides this, once this wheel starts revolving
