Training Your Amazing Mind in 8 Ways

Your mind has no form or shape, it is not anywhere but it is everywhere.  Your mind is not your brain, nor is it your thinking brain or your feeling brain.  Your mind is actually your perception or your consciousness. Your consciousness has no form or shape but it can perceive a sense object (e.g. a car) and take in sense objects in various forms and shapes.  The mind travels afar, it can go back time (even to your past lives if you can remember) or the future (we call it dreams).  Your mind wanders alone and has no physical form. But your consciousness appears and vanishes very quickly.  Early in the morning, you wake up and read something negative in the newspaper.  This affects your mind.  In time to come your physical attributes (e.g .your temper, character etc) would also be affected.  Imagine if you were to be born and brought up in a war torn country where killing and all kinds of sin are common.  Your mind would be trained thi...

2 Types of Training: Narrowing the Mind and Broadening the Mind

As a Trainer with over 17 years experience (part time since 1996, full time since 2001), I realized that there are 2 types of training in this world.  By training I don't just mean attending courses or lessons, the most common training in the world is direct experience or on-the-job training as known in the workplace.  The 2 types of training are Narrowing the Mind and Broadening the Mind Training.  Type 1: Narrowing the Mind Training This type of training narrows the mind, that is, the mind becomes more narrow after the training.  By 'mind' here I mean the thinking, both conscious and non-conscious .  This type of training, instead of letting the trainee knows what are the possibilities, restricts him to fewer possibilities .  For example, some corporate trainers teach people only certain fixed way of doing things and disregard other schools of thought.  They are dogmatic and usually claimed themselves to be 'gurus' or some form of special in...

Why Gotama is the Greatest Teacher of all Times

Buddhism officially came to China in 67 CE. The Eastern Han Dynasty Emperor Han Ming sent special envoys to India to invite Buddhist monks to come to China to preach. Since most South-East Asia Chinese came from China, to the Chinese Buddhism is almost 2,000 years old. Buddhism in that period was regarded as an Educational System and not as a religion. Indeed in many ways Buddhism is considered as an education and not religion, primarily because Buddhism is not about faith or belief, but about seeing the world in the right way . It is about questioning everything, including the teachings of Buddhism . Only when one has wisdom can one question, thus Buddhism is an education. This is the unique thing about Buddhism as compared with other faiths, religions and schools of thoughts. Not only that, Buddhism is also about the how to live the teachings of Siddhartha Gautama who ‘founded’ the religion of Buddhism in 563 BCE in North-East India that is Nepal today.
