Feed your mind with quality thoughts




As we have accepted that our mind is like our child then we should take its responsibility on our shoulder. We should guide our mind in the direction of its spiritual development so that it won’t wander here and there. We should guide it to go ahead on the right track. In his fourth shloka, Samartha Ramdas Swami guides mind to stay away from nasty thoughts or any thoughts that are provocative. 
These thoughts assure us the happiness at the initial stage but later we find that these are the root causes of our sorrow. Samartha Ramdas Swami asks mind to stay away from wicked mentality. 
   He tries to tell us that nasty or wicked thoughts are the main reasons behind every sorrow, if we want to keep that sorrow away, we need to get rid of those wicked thoughts. As we know that they are useless.
   Samarth tries to tell us that these wicked thoughts make us commit sins in our life. What are those sins? They can be anything, they can involve hurting someone’s emotions, threatening someone or just being happy by seeing someone in trouble. When you feed your mind with such thoughts their outcome would be of no difference. 
    If we sow seeds of sweet fruit in the soil, the plant which would grow, would obviously ripen the sweet fruits. In the same way, Samarth Ramdas Swami asks us to feed our mind with positive thoughts so that they would reflect in our actions and our life would be the celebration of optimism. There would be no room for negativity or loss, there would be only happiness and optimism. This kind of life surely leads you to the success, happiness and satisfaction.
