Keep Your Mind Clear

Our sensory perception is a powerful thing. From the time that we are introduced to this earth, and up to our adult life, the senses play important roles for us. It is because of the senses that we learn the things around us; and these senses are the ones that help us grasp the nature of things in this world.

Self enrichment expands our senses in directions that we can hardly believe. We become aware of the minute as well as the big picture. We begin to feel the synchronicity of all things and the inter connectivity of the universe.

Think of the senses as our sponge that we need in order to live life to the fullest. The senses in the form of the sponge absorb every detail that we see around us- the things we see, hear, feel, taste and touch. And this sponge started to work when we are young and continues to work for us until our adult life. But more than these five senses, there is one important sense that everyone should be aware of. And once this next sense is properly used, and then its role will become as important as that of the other five senses. That other sense is called the sixth sense.

So what exactly is the sixth sense that can also help in educating and guiding a person and can help him in his self-enrichment?

The sixth sense can be used in self-enrichment too- and this sense works on things unseen. If the other five senses require the object to be seen before information can be processed by our brain, intuition doesn’t need to see the object. This kind of perceiving things is now lost in rubble of materialism, since people put a premium on what they can see. This is true for the western culture, where materialism is rampant. But in eastern cultures, it is a different story.

The eastern cultures are quick to use intuition to their advantage and quick to use intuition as a way to improve the overall health of the person. Intuition comes into the picture because this can help in perceiving the things around us. Using just the five senses in self-enrichment will not work and the mind may only play tricks on us.

The usual five senses may fail to operate efficiently especially if the body is not in top condition. For example, when we feel tired and sleepy, the mind can play tricks on us. It is for this reason why we need to keep our body healthy.

If we keep ourselves healthy, and we follow it with self-enrichment then we can easily process the information around us without fail.
