Have you observed the computer?
The computer has been doing many complex operations,
but not get stressed out or get depressed.
If the Human Mind follows the computer model,
then, the Human Being may not be stressed out or get depressed.
Over the centuries, Human Mind has been trained
to work like a Cassette Recorder.
You keep storing in the mind and play it back later.
In this model, the Cassette is not a removable one.
It is a recorder with a fixed cassette.
Since the cassette has a limited space,
in order to store more, you may compress the information.
When you get more information,
you need to erase some old information to store the new.
If you store good, healthy information,
you feel happy, when you play it back.
If you store bad, sad information,
you feel depressed, when you play it back.
Some times you read books or listen to others
and collect information and store them in your mind cassette.
Most of the time, you just don't care and
let others to record their message in your mind cassette.
All the political, religious propaganda
are constantly recorded in your mind cassette.
Those recorded messages are continuously played back in your mind.
Just like a Robot, you act on those political, religious propaganda.
Mostly in Indian schools, the kids are trained
to record the math tables and play it back for their entire life.
In the Indian education system, the students, read the books and
record the contents in their mind cassette.
Once they are done with the exams,
the cassette will be completely erased.
Quiz - is the effective way of testing the performance of
the Human Mind as a Cassette Recorder.
Spelling Bee - is another way of testing the performance of
the Human Mind as a Cassette Recorder.
Who wants to be a Millionaire?
It highly motivates the Human Mind to work as a Cassette Recorder.
The Human Mind is not designed to function like a Cassette Recorder.
The Human Mind is designed to process information.
When you do not use the way, it is designed for,
then the Human Mind is bound to be stressed out and to get depressed.
Let us take a look at the computer.
CPU - Central Processing Unit.
CPU can be considered as the Brain for Computer.
Display & Keyboard are to communicate with Human.
Disk - is to store data & information.
Disk is like notebooks.
Memory - is like a scratch pad; not for permanent storage.
Let us see how the CPU - Central Processing Unit works.
CPU processes the information.
CPU does the arithmetic operations.
CPU does the logical operations too.
The key point is, CPU does not store any information.
CPU takes the information; processes it; print the result.
Once the processing done, CPU forgets about it.
The Human Mind is designed to process
information like the CPU in computer.
But the Human Mind has been trained to store information.
Because of storage, Human Mind lost their Processing Power.
Storing information is not a simple process.
It takes more energy to store information in Human Mind.
It takes much more energy to retain it.
Constant refresh is needed to retain the stored information.
Constant refresh or rewriting the same information over and over,
makes the permanent mark in the Human Mind.
A kid may try to use his left hand for eating.
It is a normal human behavior to use the left hand instead of right.
But our culture does not allow it.
So, we start correcting it.
It is not easy to change the normal behavior.
We keep saying, don't use that hand.
Initially we say it in soft way and then in hard way.
Both hands are equally important.
There is a biological reason for using left hand with ease.
But over centuries, our mind has been trained
as the right hand is better than the left hand.
In fact, we are not correcting the kid.
We are damaging the kid's mind.
Since our mind has been permanently damaged,
we do the same damage to our kids.
Once we succeed in making the permanent damage,
the kid stop using the left hand.
The point is: it is not easy to store information in Human Mind.
Human Mind tends to lose any stored information.
It needs constant refresh to retain any information in Human Mind.
So, we spend our energy in storing, retaining information.
And, we lose the processing skills of the Human Mind.
Let the Human Mind free from storing.
Let the Human Mind start Processing.
