Since the dawn of civilisation human beings have been asking themselves about the mystery of Mind, Matter and Spirit. I have been asking to myself the same questions and gave myself some answers, which are given below:



What is mind? Why do we have a mind? What is its purpose? Does it exist after death?


Mind is not a physical thing. It is one of the illusions from the soul.


Since mind is not a physical thing therefore it can not directly experience any physical reality but it can experience them through all sense organs, therefore we have it.


The purpose of mind is to experience reality through sense organs thus understand their illusiveness and then go beyond the physical reality into imaginative quest and wonders.


The physical bodies die. Mind does not die with them. It exists as envelop of the soul.



What is intelligence? Why do we have it? What is its purpose? How is it different from mind? What is awareness?


Brain is not mind. Brain is a physical super computer which can have innumerable software programmes.

When the programmes are activated by mind the “analytical product” of brain is intelligence.


We have it to give some directional purpose to illusive mind.


Therefore the purpose of intelligence is first to reduce and then to remove ignorance of non-physical mind.


Intelligence is product of brain but mind is illusion from the soul or spirit and this is the difference between intelligence and mind.


AWARENESS is intelligence of mind before any physical or mental action takes place.




It is other than awareness. It is neither intelligence nor mind. It is sense of being alive or living even when brain may not be active. Remaining conscious while being unconscious!



What is ego? Why do we have it? What is its purpose?


Ego is none of the above i.e. mind, intelligence and consciousness. It is a reflection of soul image, which is not real. The “i-ness”. This creates duality of spirit and thus confuses human thinkers of all times. It brings variety and action in universe.



What is spirit, soul or atma? Where does it reside? Why do we have it? How do we know that we have it? What is its objective?


It is in all that is. In living things it is mind, intelligence, consciousness and ego. In non-living things it is there but living things can not comprehend it. It resides every where and it is the centre of all things in living organism.


It is beginingless, endless, universal and thus eternal and beyond any scientific empirical proof.


OBJECTIVE of human kind is to remove the cover of ignorance of the soul by knowledge so that real self or true spirit or Atma shines in its purity thus ending duality between self and Supreme Spirit for ever. That would be ‘bliss’, eternal happiness unmixed with pain.
