It is quite important that we remain constantly aware of how we use our mind ? Just an information
collector, dumping ground of so many unwanted scattered pieces of
information and making it a scrapyard ? We must justify, if something
is available and adding some type of excitement we immediately start
storing data as if we are programmed accordingly and eventually our
brain hangs sometime. One may argue well by stating that mind is not
developed if not used fully. On the same line we can say there should
always be some space to play and develop. Amazingly our educational
system too bombards with so many old data which are sometime totally
useless and I would say it is severe damage to our mental health. So what
to do ? Can we change the entire world ? Yes but I would like to correct
myself , we can change our own world entirely. Just calm down and think
upon what information and type of data you are really required in your
carrier, family, society or the circle you are in. What interest and
hobbies you posses? I am sure you are getting me. Suppose a person
working in a factory, having only interest in cricket , why we should
expect from him that he should also know who were the stars of Titanic
but our system and society today likes those who are full of unrelated
information. To live healthy and for balanced mental health one should
be vigilant enough to see whether others are programming us or we are
justified in storing so much information.
The problem of over storing unrelated data in our brain is more serious in case of highly educated people. The more we develop our brain, more intellectual level we reach and creates thrust of more data and information to process but at this point of time the main question to be asked is, What information should be allowed and processed through our brain ? just try, many of us will laugh at ourselves and find how much clutter we do precess through our mind and possess too for long ...... Why ?
