We have seen that Mind
is a monkey. It keeps jumping from Positive Ego Tree to Negative Ego
Tree; but never remains static. That’s why because of the dictate
of the Monkey Mind we tailor our behaviour. At any given moment our
behaviour is shaped based on which tree the Monkey (mind) is sitting.
If it is Positive Tree our behaviour is positive and if it’s the
Negative tree our behaviour is negative. We have seen their
characteristics in the previous blog. Then the question comes as to,
Why
some are always positive and many are negative?
Intelligence
To tame the Monkey Mind
there is in each of us what is called Intelligence.
Which part of the body is it located; in the same part where the mind
is located. When the mind goes wayward, it is the Intelligence that
controls and brings it back to normalcy. If Intelligence can control the mind then why are many people negative in behaviour? Is not intelligence working for them? There is a difference between Mind and Intelligence.
Discreet Intelligence - D I
Simply ask a question,
“Can milk float in water” The instant answer is NO. It can be
miscible with water, but not float on water. However, there is
something in the milk which can make the milk float on water. Yes! If
you churn the milk, you will get butter. Butter can float on water.
What is Discreet Intelligence?
Oxford Dictionary says, it’s Guarded, Tactful, Careful, Cautious, Restrained, Soft and so on. When our behaviour is based on the Discreet Intelligence, many a time our behaviour will be positive. The more our behaviour is positive; we will create an environment that is positive around us.
Stress
& D I
As we said earlier,
Stress is a set of Toxin that’s produced by the Mind and
contributes to ill health. Anti-stress medicines are habit forming
and have plenty of side effects.
We already get toxins from food, air and water. Of course they are injected from outside into the body and we have very little control over them. But Stress related toxins are produced from inside our body but we can control them. How to do it?

I can’t tell the
process of churning here, as that is beyond the scope of this blog.
In
the 18th
century Shakespeare said,
Discretion
is the better part of Valour
LET US ALL RESOLVE TO LEAD
LET US ALL RESOLVE TO LEAD
A STRESSLESS LIFE
