Living with Demons (and Conquering Them)

All in the mind

- Ms. Deepshika Gaud

It is said that both heaven and hell exist in the mind. And that which lives in the mind is projected outside in our outer world. We may be living with some demons in the mind, which may prevent us from being our true selves and bring some problems, difficulties or overall stagnancy in our lives.

So, what are these demons? They are nothing but mind tendencies or lower mind states that can cause a false identification with certain thoughts and behaviors because of which we may not only misunderstand people around us but also misunderstand ourselves vis-a-vis who we are or who we can be in the absence of these demons.
