The more we control ourself : the more we control others..
The one who got control on oneself ,the more he has got control on others..
There is nothing outside which is not inside...:-)
One suffers because one cannot control his/her senses...
I read this theory when I was in engineering third year..I was extremely fascinated by this one..
I have decided to expriment on this..Those days I used to watch lotsa Tv, it was somehow hampering my studies..once I started Tv I used to watch it for 3-4 hours togather..I found not watching tv was not in my control...especially cricket matches...[mom used to call TV as Idiot Box]..I have decided i will not watch TV for next one month...But very next day I broke my resolution for sachin's sixer and madhuri's movie..:-)..
I felt bad..Small idiot box was ruling over my senses..I felt i was very easy victim of temptations and I felt like a hell that time..."is i m slave of my senses or senses r my slaves....if my mind cannot control them..then they will start controlling me...
pacifying senses and letting them go is the life? Or Controling them for higher goal is the life ?
If i cannot control myself i m no-entity..if i cannot keep my small resolution- i m no- entity in this world...The one who cannot control herself ..cannot imagine to control others...
Gandhiji abandoned his comfortable life..so millions of poor indian relate himself with them...
He controlled himself so millions of ppl looked upto him as a godfather...
First it is needed to set our example...for that requires lotsa of self control...
I felt like a zero at that time...I cannot keep my small resolution....nah it should not happen again...
Then I have decided why not to keep short term plans...I should start it from single day..
I have decided whatever will happen I will not watch Tv today...even though sachin makes his century yah Kumble takes his hattrick... "
That day passed and I kept my resolution of not watching the Tv..I was very happy..it has given me little confidence...slowly ..day after day I kept my resolution..for more than 40 days..
In those 40 days..I have studied all my hard modules ...then willingly i ended my resolution..and then again started watching Tv..But now it makes whole the difference...from then whenever I have decided to study ..I was able to shutdown the Idiot box.:-)
