I was parking my car on the side of a busy road, when a man absolutely naked walked passed by.He was dirty and unwashed and had clearly lost his mind. He was in a trance as he walked by ,with no destination in mind.The young & old , men and women, studiously avoided their gaze, as if seeing him would contaminate their minds.After all it was the same body all of us had.
Another day in the recent past when one of my relatives had an accident and had a head injury, now lies in a coma, lost in the labyrinth of his mind. The whole family is shocked and is waiting in agony for the mind to return.
It is then one realizes the power of the mind, in keeping you conscious, and knowing. Once it is lost, then there is no use for the body…………..
