Interestingly, our mind can be compared with any search engine on internet. You ask one query to Google & it will display so many possible answers. You select the answer which suits you the best. Likewise, you show one image to your mind and it will display many more similar images; you desire anything once & it will desire many more times. You fulfill one desire and your mind will produce many more desires before you. And the vicious circle starts in the mind, pressing us hard to keep on satisfying one desire after the other, with no end in sight. It is very similar to the anxiety that we face when we have many possible answers available on Google and we keep clicking one after the other & land up on different pages, drifting away from the main point of search. We keep on satisfying one desire after the other and in the process we forget the main purpose for which we had come in this human form.
Our mind has to work like a search engine by its nature. It has both type of thoughts (worldly & divine) flowing through it. A true seeker has to select between the two and mend his mind accordingly in such a way that the mind continues to work but in a way that is helpful to him in his journey within. The grace of almighty is present always to help selecting right type of thoughts when we surrender unto Him completely.
