What if we told you that you could get that shiny car from your dreams or the charming little summer home you’ve always wanted, just by thinking real hard about it?

You’d probably think we were starting to sound like author Rhonda Byrne from her bestselling book The Secret. But, spiritual teacher and humanitarian Dr.  Baskaran Pillai, who was in the city recently, explains that the power of the mind is indeed unparalleled, if only it is channelled and utilised in the right fashion — like it is in Quantum Mind (QM).

The basic concept of QM is that if the mind is tuned right, it can do things that mere action cannot. A quantum mind is an intuitive mind and not a rational one, and goes beyond reason and intellect. “In fact, even Albert Einstein said that most of what he discovered came through an intuitive process,” points out Dr. Pillai, “It just goes to show that if we are all able to operate from our intuitive minds, we can go past the limitations set by mankind.”

This theory uses science as an analogy in so much that, as one delves deeper realms, the power that can be tapped is that much more — the strength of the mind, too, is greatest in such subtle spaces. But how does one reach such a space? “Achieving a state of quietness and relaxation are the first steps. Once you have done this, the thoughts that you have are bound to be very powerful and they translate to action at a subconscious level.”

In a more practical sense, he goes on to explain, “One must start off by doing yoga, to get into the subtlest mind space. The first step is dharana, which is basically concentration. The mind has to be disciplined to prevent it from wandering. This can be done by picking any one object or area and concentrating on it for an extended period.” The second step is called dhyana, which is a state deeper than meditation. When you’ve achieved dhyana, you have only one thought in your mind.

Samadhi is the final step — it literally means a state of trance, but actually refers to total concentration. “For example, you might be looking at a tree, but you are conscious that you are looking at it. When you have reached samadhi, you remove yourself from the picture —only the tree exists, and you start attracting all the things you desire. All you have to do is focus on what you want and it will come to you,” he claims. Apart from this, practicing QM will also ensure a stress-free, uncluttered and healthy life.

Think about it!
