Mind Game!!

There are very few instances in our lives that too for few unfortunate ones that they need the help of the police or a lawyer. There is a law in every country for any harm done to other person either physically or materially like money etc. There are proper courts, proper organizations to support the people in any such endeavor.

People are offended by any loss of material wealth or any scratch on their body. It is a big issue. The issue which is not an issue is that very few people care when there is a loss of mental or spiritual wealth.

Almost everybody in this world is in the search of that illusive commodity called peace, harmony and this most sought after commodity of the world can be found in only one place for anybody for that matter and that place is sitting at the top of every human body.

Mind, the place where entire life of a person takes place, is the temple of the body and if it is sacred and calm, surroundings of that individual would reflect that and life would be filled with harmony.

It is this particular temple of the body which is prone to more scratches and threats in one single day what the physical body would be in a week or a month. But still everybody is more careful towards their body but do not bother about taking care of their mind.

If at all people realize that each and every visual, each and every word which is being fed to the mind can create havoc or serenity of highest order; there would be less of the darkness what we see now around us.

Our surroundings are filled with more of negativity than positivity. The words we speak or listen comes more from negative side than the counterpart. The people who surround us are more interested in bringing us down than lifting us up. The news that is running on the television, radios or newspapers is more of some mishappening than of a celebration.

All of these things create a wall in the mind which has more dark spots on it than the brighter one. In addition to this are the jolts we receive from the people we interact in our daily lives.

In most of the cases, the scratches which the mind of a person carries comes from the people it is more attached to like family or friends as it is their opinion which matters the most. They don’t even know that what they have told in a jocular way or just as an opinion can make or mar the self-confidence or self-image of the individual.

Now though it is an unintentional one but it should be treated as a crime as it has hurt the person at a place which can take his or her life upside down.

The wound of the body are way easier to get healed than the ones in the mind of a person. It is the impact of these wounds only that we are surrounded by broken promises, broken people, broken families, broken businesses and broken societies as well.

Mind is as much part of the body as any other one but while everybody would be more than willing to accompany you on a trip to a regular doctor, everybody would look at you like an untouchable the moment you say I need to consult a psychiatrist or a psychologist. You will immediately be pronounced as mental case. Why? What is the problem in being a mental? If there can a place for deaf and dumb, if we can behave normally with a lame person, why can’t we behave normally with a person who is trying to set right emotional or mental issues one is dealing with?

It is this hypocritical behavior by the society which has caused trauma to a number of people and a number of families.

There cannot be a better time than we are living now to have a focus on the ever neglected issue of our lives when there is more number of people who are facing such issues without even themselves knowing it.

If at all people can be more open about such issues, if at all they could be accepted more openly, if at all we understand that it’s okay to be not okay mentally like it’s okay to be not okay physically, there would be more joy among us, there would be more harmony in families.
