Why Does our Mind Gets Attached to Something? MUST WATCH | Mind Management Challenge Day 6

[@aditivijaykumar7067]

This video is a must watch for youth! Esp. about "looking cool" - which ultimately is a desire for respect and acceptance in teenage years based on the wrong idea of true happiness. So many youth unfortunately get affected by this , sometimes leading to harmful situations like drug addiction, alcoholism, etc. Having the right values and beliefs stemming from the right knowledge is so important in formative years so that one can develop the right attitude towards life's challenges. Kudos and much gratitude to JKYog and Swamiji for bringing this priceless wisdom free of cost world over. Anyone can benefit from this!

[@purnachandrabrahma7001]

Yes, this is fully perfect for Youth!

[@akhilhils]

Luckily today my 10 years old daughter was watching with me, you are right this is a must for youths...

[@aparnasaraswat]

Well said.

[@shyampriya844]

Swamiji also explained about infatuation in teenagers , peer pressure leading to bullying etc.

[@rimapant0]

Very important to make teenager understand the real Fame "Cool" things come in life by good values for it intellect need to be powered with right knowledge

[@manjarik.gangwar-warty4679]

So beautifully put in Hindi sayings: Leave Vasanas or desires not Vaas or Household! Leave Kamana or desires not Kaam or work/duties!

[@triptigolwalkar4084]

Manjari K. Gangwar-Warty loved this

[@priyaalaraj4749]

I loved this part too. Few changes to the words changes the entire meaning.

[@purnachandrabrahma7001]

Dividing the word, activities changes, what a division! 🙌✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:*

[@gayatrich1801]

Yes, it was very beautiful lecture !!!

[@nehapatadia2385]

Absolutely true. Keep on working without getting emotionally invested in it.

[@aditivijaykumar7067]

Neurons that fire together wire together- what a beautiful statement scientifically describing how contemplation leads to default negative or positive thinking habits in any situation.

[@purnachandrabrahma7001]

Engineering words! IIT in Spirituality. :)

[@priyaalaraj4749]

The more you run a neural circuit, the stronger that circuit becomes. Need to contemplate on higher goals.

[@PrachiR]

yes, thoughts affect us so deeply at neuron levels- what an eye opener

[@shyampriya844]

Absolutely beautiful! Swamiji explains with examples too.

[@aditivijaykumar7067]

@@purnachandrabrahma7001 so true Bhaiya!

[@warko01]

Great example of Saubhari rishi to demonstrate how repeated contemplation leads to attachment which in turn leads us to Desire and the result of that could either be greed or anger!! How easy has swamiji mentioned this concept over a period of a couple of days.

[@saradapemmaraju6855]

Yes, I loved the story too. Yes Swamiji's teachings are amazing,Swamiji explains in such a beautiful way we can easily understand them

[@manjarik.gangwar-warty4679]

Totally impressed with these MMC Videos! These 21 days are going to be a totally amazing period of our lives!

[@smitamehtadenton]

Swamiji so beautifully says that we are all attached to different things. Attachment is created through repeated contemplation of happiness in something. The mind becomes attached to it. Thank you, Swamiji.

[@PrachiR]

very well said!

[@shyampriya844]

So we need to contemplate in the right direction , only thing is it is difficult to distinguish and with practice it is doable!

[@madhavigeetamohan9672]

So true...it is we who delve on what we think willake us happy!

[@kulkarnifamily1309]

Absolutely. This is why we should repeatedly contemplate positive thoughts.

[@gayathris2776]

Well said, if we change the direction of our thoughts and contemplate on positivity, our mind can be tamed...

[@smitamehtadenton]

What a beautiful quote by Swamiji, “Vasana chhodo, vaas na chodo” that suggests that we do not need to give up everything in life, just the attachment or craving for worldly things. Thank you, Swamiji.

[@shraddhamohan6755]

I loved that statement 💗 Smita Ji! Also, kaamna chodo; kaam na chodo :)

[@priyaalaraj4749]

I loved this too.

[@Aditya-fq9xv]

yes i agree

[@ksharma94539]

That was my favorite also Kamna Chodo Kama na chodo I will try to practice keep working without attachment .

[@SouldomArt]

Yaa! It gave a clear concept that how to live in this world but not let the world live in us.

[@warko01]

Proud to say that received Swamiji’s latest book The Science of Mind Management yesterday!!!!

[@manjarik.gangwar-warty4679]

Yes, me too!

[@soulworksorg]

When did you order??? I ordered mine Sept 8th itself and Amazon says i need to wait towards end of this week to get it? Wondering why so long?????

[@soulworksorg]

I have to practice detachment and not be overanxious about not having my copy yet ;-)

[@yoginitripathi7464]

Thats Great !!, I also received the book yesterday, will go through this chapter now !!

[@vijayakumarshanmugam8500]

What is the price of the secience of the mind management book

[@smitamehtadenton]

The story of Saubhari rishi really makes me think about how a little kusang turned the entire austere life of a rishi. We are a thousand times more susceptible. Thank you, Swamiji.

[@hymar8748]

True. We should avoid gossip unwanted things

[@priyaalaraj4749]

That's actually a scary thought!

[@aditivijaykumar7067]

Very true , how careful we must be

[@gayatrich1801]

Very rightly stated !!

[@yoginitripathi7464]

I agree with you Smita ji !! Such a powerful message from this story.

[@roshanshah4729]

The attachment of the mind is the backbone of the creation of focus of the mind

[@rimapant0]

I would like to add attachment of the mind also decide the course of our life. we have to be very careful about it. We attract good or bad destiny because of our choices made in life

[@warko01]

Loved the “Cricket Widow” statement that Swamiji made which is so true for so many people in Bharat!!

[@soulworksorg]

I think I missed that part. I will be watching the video a number of times though in the next few days until the next one. It all needs repetition to sink in!!!

[@PrachiR]

I may find more some analogous situations honestly- Corporate widow! Stock Widow! also, some men may become Kitty party widowers! :)

[@sundarakulkarni3657]

It is true, have a few friends who become "Cricket Widows" during the Cricket season in India!.

[@nehapatadia2385]

Yes that was good one. Hearing that my kids said great opportunity for wife to loose attachment. 😀😀

[@jhansi781]

Yes unfortunately it is still the case.

[@dalerafferty2605]

Swamiji leading the way, lighting the pathway to mind management!

[@Muralikrishnapm]

Absolutely!! Love his videos, I find so many things that I can improve on!!

[@soulworksorg]

I can feel that Swamiji really cares about us. When he talks you can see how excited he is about the concepts he teaches. His heart and soul goes into the stories. The concepts alone are true gems of wisdom, but how he conveys these concepts, with the selfless dedication, genuinely caring for our well-being, and such radiating enthusiasm , these videos just soak you in inspiration.

[@Aditya-fq9xv]

Yes!!

[@gayatrich1801]

Very rightly said !!

[@ksharma94539]

I agree if we follow even half of it we can accomplish so much .

[@purnachandrabrahma7001]

Contemplation is the reason leads to Attachment! I will follow the Bhagavad Gita sloka referred in this Video(Karmenya.....) Strongly and repeatedly contemplate myself that Happiness is not there in this material world and at the same time refer my mind that Happiness is in God and God realised Saints only, like Swamiji. Thanks a loads Swamiji.... Today's video was an Straight forward message!

[@saradapemmaraju6855]

Yes, very nicely explained by Swamiji on the root cause of attachment

[@preetimalhotra627]

Waiting for day 6 of the wonderful Mind Management Challenge!!

[@srinidhicauligi]

It will be the worth the wait.

[@ksharma94539]

I am also eagerly waiting for day 6 Each day is so full of knowledge of tools to control our mind .

[@PrachiR]

yes ! me too!!!

[@IGetByGiving]

Good analogy for explaining how our mind gets attached to something 🙏by giving the example Saubhari Rishi who got attached to 50 wives and totally changed his life towards materialistic in place of spirituality 🙏Must listen to his advice after he repented on his attachments . 👌👍🙏

[@nehapatadia2385]

Everyone does the same mistakes. I think from today’s lecture I learned not to repeat mistake of finding pleasure in worldly things. We should take everything as blessings of God and see how we can bring pleasure to others with those objects.

[@ksharma94539]

This story is so perfect example to understand the nature of our mind .

[@jayeshpatel5003]

yes true..we donot have to get carried away by the different desires of mind like lust, greed, fame, prestige, etc Instead donot contemplate happiness there but instead think of God and his Leelas !!

[@meghavyas3899]

LOL, the Rishi dug his own grave esp. 50 wives and having 10 kids each!!! The curiosity killed the cat!

[@hinapatel2466]

Thank you Swamiji for your Divine Wisdom !!

[@srinidhicauligi]

I think that because happiness is our nature, we contemplate happiness everywhere or in other words search for happiness in the outer world. This is like someone who has lost a treasure inside the house is looking for it outside and when someone asked why he is searching outside when it is lost inside, he said because there is light outside whereas the inside is dark. This is also our story.

[@hymar8748]

Very true

[@meghavyas3899]

Nicely put! Happiness is our birthright, our true nature, always available BUT we have lost it in this material world! #MindManagementChallenge #PerfectYourMind

[@danaguha]

very true. We keep looking for temporary happiness in the external world, when real happiness comes from within with practice of detachment

[@DeepakKrishna]

Very true. Only few move inwards. Because over the years we had accumulated bad things inside which gives shocker to us the moment we try to see inwards! We have to be courageous.

[@rimapant0]

Very nicely said Our mind is constantly looking for Happiness in objects or people while the treasure is inside us. Swami ji is teaching us how to find that treasure box.

[@sushilchyaupattnaik3641]

Controling my mind on wealth, fame, spouses etc is to work with a servings attitude and pure intention. Radhey Radhey Radhey Swamiji.

[@purnachandrabrahma7001]

Yes, Divertion is the way only!

[@sonalshah5270]

What a Wonderful Presentation. After I started Following up Swamiji & Daily Sadhna, I learned importance of Contemplation, I started thinking Guru Hari doing all the Daily Chore and Listening, Reading about Lord Radhe Krishna, which helped me very less time in thinking of Material Happiness.

[@PrachiR]

wow! so inspiring!

[@meenutnanda]

Aasakti of mind happens when we repeatedly attach happiness somewhere

[@ranieroy5019]

Remind myself that happiness is in God alone

[@manoramadas9882]

Attachment happens when we repeatedly contemplate happiness somewhere. I too so much addicted in tea. I got my answer why I so much attached in tea . Thank you Swamiji for wonderful lecture in the Day 6 of MMC.

[@purnachandrabrahma7001]

Ha Ha...... Tea:) Now it's time to throw it out the addiction of 🍵Tea:)

[@meghavyas3899]

Yes, I have not had caffeine (coffee/tea) for 2 days now; if I think about it than I miss it(like now) otherwise it is not affecting me so far 😉

[@preetimalhotra627]

What creates attachment? It happens when we repeatedly contemplate happiness in an object or person. In the process, neurons get fired and wired, creating neural pathways. This thought now becomes natural. Further, the contemplation leads to attachment. This is how we become addicted. That's why even though the cigarette box says that they are injurious to health, the addict continues to smoke because of repeated contemplation of happiness in it. Such an enlightening message by Swamiji!

[@PrachiR]

so true!

[@kripamohan4053]

Learned something really profound...When we repeatedly contemplate happiness somewhere, we get attach our minds there. That is something to think about! Well, contemplate on!

[@kaushalnitin]

Loved the quote " neurons that fire together wire together"

[@ChampaRadhakrishnan]

Very True. Attachment is causing us all the pain. Swamiji is giving a tool as how not to get attatced

[@hymar8748]

True

[@AnandaPradhan16041993]

Yes Champa Ji...Our contemplation of Happiness in the worldly things develops attachments which further develops desire. Desire is the root cause of suffering.

[@lakshminagar4784]

Agree Champa ji

[@sandhyadas6323]

Very true.

[@phenilpatadia6437]

Yes. Removing the attachment to the world is the he path to God.

[@PrachiR]

The entire world today contemplates happiness is 1. Money 2. fame 3. relationships 4. body etc. No doubt depression is on a rise, people are so gloomy and despondent. While it is a universal fact that death looms on all of us and we go empty handed. Covid 19 has claimed so many unsuspecting lives suddenly further reinstating this universal fact of uncertainty and no happiness in material realm. This book is so vital to guide the lost masses, as to where the true permanent solution to our problems lie.

[@manjarik.gangwar-warty4679]

Keeping our awareness, our mind in the moment, and thinking that the next moment we could be dead is a good reminder for sure! We forget our mortal nature and that is when we start wasting time thinking or worrying about the future uncontrollably and regretting the past or bringing the past in the present moment! There is no point in contemplating on material things. Thanks to Pujya Swamiji!

[@ushabhagavatula8313]

Thank you Swamiji for such an important tool to manage the mind : if we don’t contemplate Happiness in this world, attachments will disappear and there will be no worldly desires.

[@hymar8748]

Yes

How enslaved we are by our own mind. Real freedom would be attained when relieved from the clutches of our own minds. Thanks so much for the Guiding Light!

[@soulworksorg]

Yes! These videos have also redefined freedom for me as well. I see our freedom defined in our free will. We decide what we put there in our mind. If we are unhappy we brought it on. Therefore, we can choose the right things to keep our mind unpolluted, to keep from the negativity to drag our minds down, weigh them down and burden them, shackle them to addictions, etc....

[@soulworksorg]

It's sounds so simple yet its deeply profound. The world wants us to do the opposite and not be so self reliant, we have to work hard to protect the mind from the onslaught of negative things from the world.

Contemplating on bodily happiness gets the mind attached and that becomes a habit. which takes forever to break because if you take the h out of habit a bit is left and if you take a out of it a bit is left and if you take the b out of habit, it is left. So make a habit of right contemplation

[@PrachiR]

true!

[@rimapant0]

Agree! Bad Habits are easy to make hard to live with

[@sundarakulkarni3657]

Such an interesting & smart way to look at it!

[@himanshusaraswat2318]

We are carrying our tendencies from infinite lifetimes. In any of our births, we already have desires. When we regularly contemplate on a subject or person or anything, our mind creates continuous desires based on where the attachment is, and that ultimately ends in greed, anger or suffering. Changing our thoughts and desires towards divine direction is must for us in our birth🙏

[@sunilsinha12]

As soon as we think that there is happiness in something, mind starts attaching. Happiness source is the root of attachment!

[@Aditya-fq9xv]

Yes, I agree!!

Our minds often form attachments as a way of seeking familiarity, comfort, or meaning, creating a sense of connection in a complex world. Emotions, experiences, and perceived value contribute to the formation of these attachments, shaping our mental landscapes.❤

Attachment happens when we repeatedly contemplate happiness somewhere. This is the critical piece of information in the whole logic. What a beautiful statement. Unless we know how attachment happens, we will not be able to break it. If the attachment is not broken then the other consequences like greed, anger, desire will catch hold of us. This is really critical. Without this information we can do nothing to stop the mind from contemplation on objects.

[@danaguha]

It is indeed a vicious and recursive cycle. This cycle of pleasure and craving and anger is difficult to break, it is only with conscious decision and guidance from knowledgeable Guru like Swamiji, that it could be possible.

[@billrafferty9258]

We must be careful where we contemplate happiness, since that can lead to attachments that are bad for our spiritual growth.

[@saradapemmaraju6855]

well said. we need to be careful of every thought what we will be contemplating upon

When our mind repeatedly contemplate the thought, there is happiness in this object or person, our mind develops craving for that object or person

Beautifully explained by Swamiji of today topic .Repeated thinking causes attachment to our mind.. Thank You Swamiji 🙏

[@danaguha]

This video is a must watch for students and the younger generation, before they give in to the process and develop addictions. The example of how cigarette addictions develop is eye opening.

[@roshnimahajan618]

Swamiji thank you for putting so much effort in explaining this knowledge and help us analyze the real cause of our mental afflictions.

[@jhansitavva6619]

I am grateful to Swamiji too, such profound Vedic knowledge, and it is so amazing that he explains with such simple examples and analogies.

[@rathnav]

Wow what a revelation - repeated contemplation leads to desire - breaking this chain very important !!!

[@hymar8748]

If we think happiness is in someone, that repeated thinking causes attachment of our mind to that person

[@jayeshpatel5003]

very true Hyma ji !

[@PrachiR]

Yes, so if we want mental peace- we should have 0 expectations from any material person/event/ object

[@babitarpur]

@Hyma R You are listening to Swamiji's Video quit a lot, I can see. It is one of the most important video of my choice!

[@jhansitavva6619]

Yes, same thing applies to objects, situations and places as well.

[@carmelitateledorio9663]

@@PrachiR yes! me too

[@youva_rani]

Always awestruck with your explanations SwamiJi. We learnt the cause of suffering in this world is desire and now we are learning that desires arise out to attachment. Attachment arises because we keep contemplating on the happiness we get from materialistic thing and people. In order to overcome attachment we must, not contemplate on things we experience that give us a kick in life nor think about the people we meet and keep contemplating on how they make us feel. Instead we should focus on the present, invest our mind and thoughts in the Supreme Lord and then the process pf detachment will start.

[@valuenut2010]

Wow! Today on Day-6 MMC Swamiji goes one step further after discussing desire the root cause of our mental afflictions and attachment which creates the desires. Looking forward to know the next piece in the mind management puzzle. #PerfectYourMind

yes! #MMC

[@saradapemmaraju6855]

Me too looking for the gems of wisdom

[@AnandaPradhan16041993]

Yes Vishal Ji...Our contemplation of Happiness in the worldly things develops attachments which further develops desire. Desire is the root cause of suffering. Next episode will conclude this chain.

[@akhilhils]

This is very true, when I lookback at all my attachments I see the contemplation as the root cause.

[@srinidhicauligi]

The net of thoughts are not easy to break. Our habits show that. One who is addicted to cigarette smoking will find it very difficult to give up the habit. So it is with any other habit. Not falling into its clutches in the first place would be a better option.

[@sunilsinha12]

Agree! One way cigarette smoking can go away is finding something of more addictive power, and we get addicted to it.

[@PrachiR]

definitely- best is to know in advance and avoid

[@gayatripanda1023]

Attechment happens when we repeatedly can template happiness somewhere .And repeated contemplation of happiness in God will lead to attachment to God.

Contemplating happiness in the world brings us more miseries

[@srinidhicauligi]

Now that we know that contemplation of happiness leads to attachment of mind, the next step will be why do contemplate happiness in material objects which is said to the key to the final link. We have to strike at this final link to stay away from trouble to the chain of events that succeed.

[@danaguha]

Attaching the mind to God is the permanent source of happiness, it is happiness that comes from within. So grateful to Swamiji for this guidance.

[@sundarakulkarni3657]

Eager to learn that link in the chain so that we can continue on our spiritual path.

[@danaguha]

"The world is not a problem, our attachment to it is a problem" - profound statement Swamiji, so true if we can only remember this every day in every action and reaction.

[@sundarakulkarni3657]

We are always trying to blame something else for the problem & not our minds!

[@sandhyadas6323]

True
