Are you able to control instant pulse generated?
Heard something interesting over TV, while you were reading. Can you continue reading without looking at TV?
These are two instances. If one can have a pause in between these two, he/she can decide her next action, whether to look at TV or continue reading or something else.
Our usual reaction will be to look at TV. May be after some time only, we will be realizing that we were distracted from reading, by our instant pulse.
May be, that is our innocent reaction to watch TV.
May be, that is our lively response.
Now, isn’t it a bit rude upon ourselves, if we are controlling those instant pulse?
So I doubt, if I am losing that innocence.. I doubt if I am not lively..; )
In fact, that controlling is not at all my cautious decision, which happens naturally with 80 % of my actions. TV the simplest of them
Or is it like I am getting saturated?
Or am I going to be a saint.. ; )
Our interests towards certain liking distract us! You can be saint when you know who you are!
and how will you think ourself, when that liking can’t distract you?
You have to! When you think and keep yourself happy and you can easily make the surroundings happy! So it’s better to start from us! If you have more self control, nothing can distract you to a certain point! Most saints live in the forest to avoid distractions!
hmm..so let me find my forest.. he he lol..
okay 🙂 Be aware of animals until you get used to them in the forest! I guess you have many forest in your state so you can easily chose one!
ha ha..may be i have to turn a part of my home itself.
Maybe you can built it there and you can a live a peaceful life!
yes.. let me try..;)
Let’s see!
These all technologies have disturbed our peace. By using less we can overcome this. Good post
Thanks you Gama. have a good day..
But my problem is i am not getting distracted..;)
In reality it’s not gone happen we all have been addicted.
But in reality it’s not gonging to happen. We all have been addicted
yea.. we have to..:)
TV frequency and brain frequency are in complete contrast and most often meddles with our mind. So, I guess we have to shut off our mind to the outside stimuli or shut off the TV for good. 🙂
ha.. great …how will you react if we are in a situation that we can’t shut it off either
Then we wouldn’t be doing justice to both. Mind will be wavering from a lower to higher frequency at random and we would not register anything in the long term memory.
true..:)
ha ha ..:)
That was soo well put up….forces one to think…trust me…it does ❤
Oh really…
thank you ..
So what are you thinking now..;)
TO READ more and more of your work :p
ha ha .. so sweet..
so a warm welcome to my blog..
Thankyou :))
TV is too distracting. It also stimulates so reduces relaxation.
I prefer quiet when I need to concentrate, doubt if there will ever be any beatification in my house though….
thank you.. yes, we need to be out of those distracts an concentrate.
TV destroys choice by replacing the imagination with images …

thank you. Have a nice day. But my concern is THAT TV is not distracting me he he.
Your powers of concentration are to be commended … either that, or it’s a very good book!
I didn’t mean I was concentrated, I could hear the TV too, but I donno why I didn’t look at TV. and the TV case is one of the examples only
Perhaps the pictures in your mind from reading were enough …
May be…☺
… in which case, sainthood beckons! We are all saturated with the global TV culture … if culture is the right word. We need to keep our simple selves alive. End of sermon. What’s on TV?
on tv.. infact, it seems to be forgotten..
It simply means your conscious mind is too heavy and dominant over the sub conscious one and I don’t see any harm with it. Probably you would be getting very less or no dreams at all.
Hmm..may be.
dreams, not very often, but recurring dreams.
What a correct time of your post, i was getting distracted from my studies as I’ve my exams soon. Okay, i am still innocent 😛
He he ..lol…
Study well..
hehe.. interesting write up … 🙂 and i think you are not loosing your innocence , i don’t go for tv while i’m reading or doing something which is interesting to me, but i’ll ask the person who is watching the tv ( incase of my amma, incase of achan i’ll go googling about it ) after reading or what it is 🙂
he he you are so cool.. liked it…
I am not addicted to tv either
Interesting post . This reminds me of something my teacher told me long back.”If you are doing something and you hear something on television.If you leave everythin you are doing and rush to watch the tv,.your interest lies there.In case you forget the existence of your tv or mobile or any other gadgets..and continue with your work..then that is something more important to you than tv. 😀 confusuing? I still haven’t figured it out yet..as to what is more imp to me..reading or television? 😀
your teacher had a word in favor of me..:)
But my doubt was, since we all being human, we have a natural tendency to look at TV, right.. Tv or any thing else which could catch our attention. but what will it be defined if one’s conscious mind is ruling the subconscious mind of senses..? Is that okay .. Will that be a social behavior?
yeah I understand what you are trying to say.But in my case I don’t always get distracted by the tv if i’m doing something which really interests me..for example if I’m writing a poem or an article .As to your question..i think its natural for people to get distracted.But I don’t think our conscious can rule our unconscious.When you are distracted to the television,its your subconscious mind causing the distraction.Your conscious is telling you to continue what you are doing.That’s why there is an initial reluctance and confusion as to whether one should watch tv or continue wd the job at hand.And soon when your conscious also agrees with your subconscious you get up and rush to watch the tv.( This is purely my interpretation.Don’t blame Freud for this.or even Lacan.though I have read them both. 😀 )
Haha 😀 Well then I don’t know..Freud would have helped u out if he was alive .but sadly he s no more.:P But I have heard there are many psychoanalysts in France even today. Get in touch with one of them 😀
he he lol..
😀 😀
Actually Saints don’t bother those comments,they just smile and easily get detached..soo now you can scream loud that you are not saint..
Oooo…do you have devil side too???
