The Path to Peace of Heart and Mind

in #esteem6 years ago (edited)

Everything created and done by human beings is the result of human thought itself. As Napoleon Hill puts it, "Thought that is deliberately placed in the mind and driven with sympathy and combined with emotion, is the driving force of motivation that directs and controls every action and deed."

The mind is the main source for a person to act. However, in acting one does not just rely on his mind alone. He needs the role of conscience in decision making, because the conscience and the mind are the two important elements that are interconnected in decision making. When both are compatible with each other it will produce a positive action as well as vice versa.

In everyday life we ​​are always faced with various problems. We may have seen, heard or even experienced events when thoughts conflict with conscience, such as conflict, war, robbery, and so on. These actions are actions that are already known to the effect but are still being done. We are confronted with two choices between black and white. Our sense of humanity always prevents us from doing that damn thing.

When we do what immediately comes to mind without considering the consequences, the outcome is conflict both with society and with self that is inner conflict that leads to regret. But conflict is not always considered bad because it has the potential to determine performance and maturity depending on how the views of the conflict are being experienced.

If the person who is experiencing the conflict is a person who has the motivation of life then he will regard it as a process of maturity, otherwise if he is a soluble person in the problem then he is not easy to get back up and move on. He will be an unproductive and useless person both for himself and for others.

As we know that the conscience is a voice that comes from the bottom of the heart and people often assume that the conscience is the voice of God. This assumption is justified because conscience always directs us to act according to human values. But we often ignore the voice of God because of the influence of the more dominant mind.

There are not many things in life that make us feel confident about conscience. The reason why the mind is always in conflict with the conscience is because we have no strength and confidence in ourselves.

What should we do to overcome them? To have strength and confidence we need spiritual energy. Yet many of us do not know where to find it.

There are still many of us who are confused to make the right choice. Some choose to look for it by taking a way contrary to religious teachings such as using a talisman, meet a shaman / normal and so forth. But somehow we do not feel much change in our mind. The inner is more turbulent because of these mystical things.

How to find spiritual energy? What choice should we choose? The right choice is to deepen the teachings of religion. Religion is a source of strength and trust. Religion is the foundation or foundation of life. Like a building, if the foundation is strong then the building is also strong and can withstand all the storms.

Likewise life, when we have strength and confidence we will always be on the right path and not easily overcome the trials, not easily affected to commit criminal acts and other acts that are against the values ​​of humanity as it is occurs in various parts of the country today. For that it is necessary to control every action and how to overcome every problem of life that approached our lives.

Many of us lose faith in God and finally choose to join the heretical sects that are the source of conflict in society. They create enmity with God that ultimately leads them astray.

By deepening the teachings of religion and surrendering the whole life to God only we will feel close to God and only peace that exists within. A peaceful inner state can control the human mindset so that any actions that can cause problems can be avoided.

Close to God makes us a person who will never think to create negative things that can cause conflict. God will always guide and guide us to the right path through our conscience. The problems that arise in human life actually come from God himself. But it is not without purpose God gives trouble.

Problems exist to test patience and God gives the heart and mind a chance to work out how to find the right solution. Therefore we must surrender our whole life only to God. If previously we are a person who is far from God then change by renewing the mind.

There is still hope God is present in our lives, enlightening, and refreshing our minds. For that we are always asked to always develop the voice of the heart because God is always present in our heart and cry through the voice of the heart. How to develop a conscience is actually very easy that is by praying, reading the scriptures, and active in spiritual activities in accordance with their respective religions and beliefs.

Approach yourself to God and focus all attention on Him only then God will always direct your life. The wise man tells us that we must investigate ourselves and discover what grace God has given us and what weakness God wants us to overcome by our will and power.
