Baba, Sathya Sai2019-09-252019-09-252013-11-301971-01-28http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12424/196226The mind of man is not an organ that can be identified physiologically; it cannot be touched or operated on by doctors or surgeons. It is an intangible bundle of resolutions and hesitations; of wishes and wants; to pros and cons. It has as warp and woof of the wishes that man entertains with reference to outward objects and sensations. It easily rushes out after external pleasures and assumes the shapes of the things it seeks. It can also be turned back into searching for inner contentment and inner joy. That is why the mind is said to be the instrument for both bondage and liberation. Allow the senses to lead it outward; it binds. Allow the intelligence to prevail upon it to look inward for bliss; it liberates.engWith permission of the license/copyright holderSatya Sai BabaFoodHindu ethicsReligious ethicsSpirituality and ethicsMethods of ethicsGeneral and historicalTheological ethicsPhilosophical ethicsBioethicsMedical ethicsHealth ethicsCommunity ethicsLifestyle ethicsArticle
