An intelligent mind has alertness

Tusar Kanta Mohanty

 

According to the Bhagavad Gita, the mind can either be an ally or an adversary, depending on the manner in which it is governed. Additionally, Krishna remarks that the mind is changeable, agitated, yet resilient and determined. Managing the mind proves to be more challenging than controlling the wind. This analogy draws a comparison between the mind and matter, specifically the wind. While matter falls within the realm of Physics, the mind is beyond its scope. Physical approaches do not exist for investigating the mind. Nevertheless, this endeavor aims to shed some scientific insights into the qualities attributed by Shri Krishna to the mind.

Let's begin by directing our attention towards the ever-changing and unsettled state of the mind. These characteristics signify the wavering nature of our thoughts resulting from hesitancy. Hence, individuals possessing strong determination have the capability to govern their minds and establish order within. This parallel can be drawn to physical bodies as well, which exhibit intriguing and organized phenomena when influenced by robust internal energy. Notable material features, such as magnetism and superconductivity, exemplify the essence of order.

Strength and obstinacy represent contrasting qualities. Strength of mind is regarded as a favorable attribute, whereas obstinacy is considered undesirable. The accomplishments of a determined mind can outshine even the most powerful forces of material energy. No group of expertly engineered supercomputers can replicate the groundbreaking achievements of visionaries like Kalidas or noteworthy figures such as Einstein. This exemplifies the immense power held by the human mind.

In the realm of Physics, matter waves are encountered, wherein light exists as a wave, yet posseses a particle nature. The coexistence of these two forms is inherently interconnected. Likewise, electrons display characteristics of both particles and waves concurrently. These scientific truths, known as the particle-wave duality, were comprehended solely during the past century.

In the domain of spirituality, occasional allusions are made to a concept resembling a mental wave, whose existence remains uncertain. Should such a phenomenon actually exist, its defining characteristics are not yet known. At times, we encounter profound emotions towards individuals who hold great significance in our lives.

We often discuss the concept of mind power and its scientific basis. What laws govern this power and are they universally applicable? Power is undeniably at play, influencing much of our actions or lack thereof through the mind. However, it is important to note that the mind exists outside the realm of Physics' laws, despite its undeniable potency. While the equivalence between matter and energy is firmly established, we must question whether there is an equivalence between matter and mind. Some mystics, along with their supporters, assert that mind power can bring forth the creation of matter from nothingness. If we consider nothingness as a physical vacuum, then the possibility exists, as zero-point energy is present within it.

If a quantum theory of mind could be developed, there is potential for meaningful exploration of the aforementioned possibilities. This topic has been a focus of a select few theorists. The idea of a unity between mind and matter remains uncertain and awaits further investigation. However, at present, the extent of our knowledge on this matter remains unknown.

The mind possesses qualities that can be analogously compared to certain characteristics of physical devices. Take, for instance, a p-n junction diode that serves the purpose of rectification, converting alternating current (AC) into direct current (DC). While AC fluctuates, DC remains constant. Similarly, a resilient mind has the ability to transform life's uncertainties into a calm and harmonious state.


An intelligent mind has alertness. It can sense external stimuli and direct the body to act appropriately. In this way, it acts as a sensor. It has also the attribute of a solid state oscillator. An oscillator generates electromagnetic waves which can be detected by another device, a detector, if it is tuned to the frequency of the wave. Since these devices are electronic in nature and follow quantum laws, perhaps, there could be a possibility of the role of quantum theory in the understanding and analyzing of the mind.
