We all have to think. For, every action on our part is necessarily preceded by a thought. What we seem to forget though is that how should we thinkIJ The process of right thinking is highly important for our mind to give us a pleasurable time.
One may have immense potential but the more important part is to translate it into effect. We bank on our inlaid potential but seldom remain conscious of our inherent limitations of mind playing spoil sport with our worthiness.
The irony of the current situation in the world is that intelligent people with immense potential seem to fail more than the others. The reason behind it is plain and simple. It is their complex thought process which allows them to think far ahead of others, but more often than not, fails to bring that thought into action. These people often do not allow orderly functioning of the thinking apparatus as if it has stopped working.
As far as the vast processes of mind are considered, free thinking gives space for more probable victories. A free thinking mind makes unbiased judgements to weigh inner desires and outer data, giving us leads to the best suited decisions.
The paradox, however, is that since communication explosion mind seems to have acquired a speed that is not in sync with the original chemistry of the mind. Mind in its usual run needs time and space for reflection which it does not seem to get. This trend plays heavy particularly in intelligent people. Overawed by their worthiness, ego takes over the mind’s drive, often identifying itself with the mind’s desires. It then prompts one to jump into action without allowing time and space for due diligence by the discriminatory faculty. Also, it takes events in the outer world on their face value, and accordingly prompts one to respond impulsively. The discriminatory faculty once again gets ignored. They expect the fruit of their action too soon without taking into account the hurdles that come in the way.
Apart from these general trends, each individual carries some limitations with them as a reflection of Karmic carryover from the past. The high ego which is often associated as a presence in intelligent people, seldom cares to work upon them, and is not open to counsel others’ limitations either. So they get caught up in the bind which stands in the way of potential of a person. The person thus fails to come out in his best form. On the contrary, those with average level of intelligence acknowledge their weaknesses and seek due guidance. They may have to take greater pains and take their own time, but fare better at managing their way.
let us look at a case study. An intelligent boy went through extremes all through his career. He had a quick success with great gains at a point of time, but he lost his fortunes later. let us have a look at his astrological pointers which will reveal his basic fabric of making.
Born in Gemini lagna, he has a very active mind breeding thoughts unabated. The lagna lord Mercury, occupying self-owned lunar constellation is in all strength in a movable sign. This read together with the Sun conjunct Mars which arms him with tremendous energy which make him keen to move fast in life.
Mercury is beautifully aligned to Karmic Saturn, intellectually ordained Uranus and mind signifier Moon. All these are the signs of a brilliant guy, armed with extraordinary intelligence and capable of understanding things in a quick flash. Second, he is ambitious and innovative. He will be thorough in his work with his eyes on every bare detail. He has an excellent communicative skill. The Sun trine to benevolent Jupiter makes him a well-meaning person having a positive bent of mind.
Towards the negative side, the Moon conjunct Neptune is placed adverse to Mars, pointing to self-delusional mind nursing fanciful dreams, often distant from ground realities. He is vulnerable to being victim of fraud and cheating, following which he may develop inferiority complex. Mars placed adverse to Uranus makes him temperamental and erratic. Venus ill-disposed off tempts him to speculation, which if carried on in haste makes him vulnerable to heavy loss.
This study shows how his infirmities brought his potential under cloud.
