Well this is the aftermath of our own karma of using our brain for thinking of not-so-worthy things.
如果你饿了,你会怎么做?抓起你最喜爱的美食饱餐一顿,然后静静地呆在那里?而你的大脑也像你的胃,是会感到饥饿的,但它却从不让你知道,因为你让它一直想着你的梦中情人、你最喜爱的明星和许多诸如此类的荒唐事。因此它只是默默地留意着你的需要却从不让自己成长。当思维恣意成长时,创造力就嘎然而止。这也许就是为什么我们有时会想“下一步该如何”、“为什么我想不到?”、“为什么我总是碰到难题?”的原因吧。这也是我们的大脑总在考虑那些毫无价值的事情产生的后果。
Hunger of the mind can be actually satiated through extensive reading. Now why reading and not watching TV? Because reading has been the most educative tool used by us right from the childhood. Just like that to develop other aspects of our life, we have to take help of reading. You have innumerable number of books in this world which will answer all your “How to?” questions. Once you read a book, you just dont run your eyes through the lines, but even your mind decodes it and explains it to you. The interesting part of the book is stored in your mind as a seed. Now this seed is unknowingly used by you in your future to develop new ideas. The same seed if used many times, can help you link and relate a lot of things, of which you would have never thought of in your wildest dreams! This is nothing but creativity. More the number of books you read, your mind will open up like never before.
