How To Bring Eternal Bliss Into Your Life? Part 6, Free Your Mind From Impressions
Continued from How To Bring Eternal Bliss Into Your Life? Part 5, Recognize Your Attachments
Your mind only thinks about those things which hold excess importance or interaction in your life.
For example, if you keep on hearing some song continuously for hours, you will find yourself connected with that song even if that song is put off. May be singing or enjoying inside your mind. Whatever way but you find yourself indulged into it. This is what I call attachment.
You cannot see the world as it is through your colored glasses. For rising above sorrow and happiness, for achieving the state of eternal bliss, you need to make your mind free from attachments, free from impressions.
For this you need to work without selfish motive, for the sake of work, as a duty. This does not bring attachment.
Much more can be said but I close this series here with the assurance that I will be back with more interesting and important topics.
Thank you very much.

All i can say well said.
But making mind free from attachment is not simple thing, and why make our mind free from attachment?one must have feelings for other,one must be attached to his/her loved ones,atleast to your parents.
Baad mei dukh na ho iske liye completely de attached ho jana,its not gud in my view.
For achieving anything in life you have to renounce everything else. For example, when you prepare for an exam, you do not let yourself be indulged into useless merrymaking. Similar is the case in spiritual realm. And even tougher.
DeleteRenunciation is not brought in life for escaping sorrow accomplished with it but in fact to make the mind pure and vacant for extraordinary spiritual experiences and for right perception of the nature.
Yes, this is very tough but this can be achieved by practice. As the tongue forgets the sweetness of an apple on tasting the sweetness of sugarcane. Similarly, the mind forgets the transitory joy of the material world on experiencing the extraordinary bliss of higher order.
Also, I do not tell to forget your duties. In fact, when you excel spiritually you find yourself one with others and also your become more sensitive and will be able to help your friends, family, society, country and humanity more efficiently and selflessly.
