The Workings Of The Mind Explained…

The mind has three stages, thinking, feeling and willing.  When we contemplate something we can enjoy with our senses then the thinking stage begins, after thinking for a while we move onto feeling, we feel what it would be like, then that takes us a stage further onto willing, which is where the subtle influences manifest into  physical activities. If we remain in absorbtion on the Great Mantra Hare Krishna and Gouranga then we never need progress past thinking, just as Bhagavad gita states in the second chapter

“A person who is not disturbed by the incessant flow of desires—that enter like rivers into the ocean, which is ever being filled but is always still—can alone achieve peace, and not the man who strives to satisfy such desires”.
