I believe that the greatest wonder in the world is mind. And it is the super-fast traveller in the universe. It can travel back and forth in time. Mind tries to pull or push you away from present. It makes you wander in the past and future.
It is not time bounded. There is no start or end for the mind journey. No one can tie it down. Therefore there is no time in mind.
Oh.. mind is winning over time.. It is really great while thinking more on it.
We always tell like ‘time will go on’. But often we forget about the exception, i.e. our own mind. Our thoughts wander here and there like a free horse, sometimes slowly, sometime swiftly.
When we think about the whole universe, it is rolling over time from past to future.. (or is it from future to past..?. I donno.)
There is no return path for the life in universe. It cannot go back to past (or can it go back?, I donno). Time passes whether we measure it or not..
But time does not exist in mind. It is freed from time. Have you wondered about this mystery of mind..?

May 27, 2016 at 12:41pmYes true our mind never lives in present. It is sad while looking in the past and takes you to cloud nine by thinking about the shiny future
Akhila
May 27, 2016 at 12:52pmthanks Parveen..you are right..mind always peeps into the future and turn back to the history, forgetting the present.and mind never realizes that the time is moving on in the life.

May 27, 2016 at 1:01pmGreat Post Akhila…. Mind is such a fascinating gift that we humans have. I get carried away with its capabilities and the infinite possibilities it can create… Ohh, I am having goosebumps thinking about it… Thanks for sharing
Akhila
May 27, 2016 at 1:04pmyes.. it travels faster than light..read somewhere.. i should be true.. but how can we measure it..? oh , you are also making my mind to think more and more..

myheartbeats4ublog
May 27, 2016 at 1:47pmhey, another nice one. hmmm..mind and time! mind is independent of time and is perpetually in motion..time cant match pace with the speed and multi-directional movement of the mind!!
Akhila
May 27, 2016 at 1:53pmyes.. you got it…time can never meet the multi directional or rather direction less path of mind…
myheartbeats4ublog
May 27, 2016 at 1:57pmTrue..and mind control… it would channelise the speed & direction, albeit to a limited extend…
Akhila
May 27, 2016 at 1:59pmbut whenever we think to control, it is more and more aggressive to deviate.. I wonder how it should really happen..
myheartbeats4ublog
May 27, 2016 at 2:00pmhmmm…may be it is best to leave it alone, it is designed for self controlled propulsion
Akhila
May 27, 2016 at 2:30pmhmm… how can I leave it alone.. I feel I am getting psychic..
myheartbeats4ublog
May 27, 2016 at 2:31pmah..you said it akhila (enikku parayan pediyayirunnu)..

May 28, 2016 at 2:02amTime and the mind are mysterious things….if we could break the code we’d be famous. So many books, movies, art given over trying to figure out what it all means! But we need mystery!! 🙂
Akhila
May 28, 2016 at 9:54amthanks. .. I am behind that mystery..;)

October 25, 2016 at 1:35amI really loved reading all of your notions. This one in particular got to me. Mind indeed lies in a timeless realm. To run away from all of my worries i sometimes create this world within my mind. It’s not an illusion but more of like a bounded world free of past, present and future. It helps me calm down myself. Have a moment of peace without having any thought of any kind. As soon as this world gets destroyed the mind again races back and and forth between what was, what is and what will be. I hope i don’t sound vague lol.

Give this a read. you might understand what im talking about.
Akhila
October 25, 2016 at 12:33pmthanks a lot for your words.. definitely i will check that link…
you are absolutely right, we only created the timelessness with your mind..
onyajay
January 24, 2017 at 6:17amThis was kind of a nice notion for me. I can see myself as maybe an archaeologist, or a famous singer… (though I think that future is probably unlikely!) …or with grey hair (which is far more likely), or even slim??!! ha ha. In your mind you can be 12 years old, I can remember falling off my roller skates and breaking my arm on my 13th birthday. I can be in high school again (yikes) or giving birth or in London or digging for opals. I can have influenza or be cuddling my two year old. Yes….this is the benefit of a mind with no time.
It’s called memory. What a wonderful thing. My mother is still smiling at me, after all these years.
Thankyou.
Akhila
January 24, 2017 at 3:48pmThank you…its all a mind game, which will never make us forget certain things
Ben Aqiba
February 14, 2017 at 4:22pmWell, Mind is the most important thing in our life.
We need to learn how to use it properly.He can push us to the stars, and trow us in mud. I have cured most of my illness with my mind.Allergies, inflammation…
Colors of my life
May 2, 2017 at 11:24amIn my opinion, my weakness/lackness/sluggishness/success/gain/plus all related to mind.
When I set myself a goal with concentration, everything comes in order. And if I said, let’s do it tomorrow. Than its just the mind playing up.
Akhila
May 3, 2017 at 10:57amThe mind games.. it’s there everywhere
Colors of my life
May 3, 2017 at 11:15amIt’s evil to be torchered like this.
Bikramjit
May 2, 2017 at 11:47amTrue true .. Good job we don’t have the rewind button otherwise I am sure mind would have made us press’s it a few times..
Akhila
May 3, 2017 at 11:02amRewind.. remember reading your post..
Moushmi Radhanpara
May 2, 2017 at 11:50amThis is such a thought.
mind always wanders off. My mind never stays at a point. It has to dance off from one thought to another.
Akhila
May 3, 2017 at 11:10amYeah.. it’s relaxing in fact to dance with the wandering mind
boundlessblessingsblog
May 2, 2017 at 3:29pmGreat words, Akhila and time is a mystery and mind is always flitting like a monkey sometimes here or there but never in one place. Awesome post.
Fny
May 2, 2017 at 3:44pmAkways! I cannot not think about it. ^^
Akhila
May 3, 2017 at 11:14amAh.. yeah sometimes, such thoughts are not that easy
thewritewomanblog
May 2, 2017 at 6:44pmOur mind makes or breaks us. It’s strange ways makes the entire universe conspire to achieving what you wish and can bring you down on your knees binding your life into a bubble of fear and anxiety. The powers of the mind. Good one, Akhi!
Akhila
May 3, 2017 at 12:03pmHmm.. power is so powerful even to put a pause for time
Frank Frisson
May 2, 2017 at 10:47pmThe mysteries of the mind has always fascinated me. Thanks for this post!
Akhila
May 3, 2017 at 12:11pmPleasure…have a nice day and enjoy the mysteries of mind
2ndhalfolife
May 3, 2017 at 3:57amIt is often very hard for the mind (as us) to be present in ‘the moment’…
Akhila
May 3, 2017 at 12:13pmIt’s hard to control… but why should be controlled.. let it wander freely
mylittlepursuitsofhappyness
May 3, 2017 at 9:50amOur mind is working all the time..though time passes what stays engraved in our minds stays the same.. everything associated with it too.. though the instances may be old or history it still knows how to cope with it in the current time on the other hand the heart can disturb you.. heart can over rule your mind..
Akhila
May 3, 2017 at 12:14pmSo you believe heart and mind are different…
mylittlepursuitsofhappyness
May 3, 2017 at 2:04pmyes very much.. and i seriously believe both very rarely work in the same direction..
boundlessblessingsblog
May 3, 2017 at 11:34amYes absolutely true, Akhila and mind is like that and then there is complete peace.
Prajakta
May 3, 2017 at 3:21pmWell.. the mind created time! Time as a concept is superficial anyway 🙂
mylittlepursuitsofhappyness
May 3, 2017 at 4:33pmexactly…. perplexed to such an extent that its difficult to gather ourselves back to where we were
shifafawaz
May 6, 2017 at 7:01pmYes! I totally agree…
Our mind is so powerful since nothing can tie it down. It is free and has no boundaries..
Very thought-provoking! 🙂
Akhila
May 6, 2017 at 9:50pmYes, Shifa…mind wanders freely even to boundaries of the universe..
shifafawaz
May 6, 2017 at 10:31pmYes yes very true!!

May 17, 2017 at 1:45pmGreat thoughts, dear. The human mind is amazing. Not only can it hold tons of memories, it can also travel to any place, anytime. Nammal physically oridathanenkilum our mind can travel to places miles away. Distanceum timeum onnum illa. No boundaries. Only limited by our imaginations. It’s like having an unlimited open ticket to travel anywhere, alle..

My script Version
August 9, 2017 at 4:55pmI agree. But not only wonder that nature has created but also the greatest possession that humankind ever can! I read an article https://cheaptale.blogspot.in/2017/08/greatest-possession-of-mankind.html in which it said that the mind is also a nonsense creation. Contradiction but nice article.
