SENSOR AND SENSES



 21st century is a century of technology. 

Whether one likes it or not, one is forced to live with technology. When you really look at all these developments, you will no doubt agree that no matter what one say, these technology has made life much more easier. And what makes our life easy? Sensors of course. You will see sensor in every electronic gadget. From a simple toy to spacecraft, everything works with sensors. A specially devised item which guides the particular action of the gadget. From toy to spacecraft, these sensors will identify the course of action for the specific purpose. The only setback is, that sensor will only sense and relay the message and if the program set on the device fails to recognize this message then there will be malfunction of the gadget. A simple toy can breakdown or a spacecraft can burn or blow out in space. We all have witnessed such mishaps every now and then.

God has also installed ten major sensors in our body. These sensors are known as senses. Our senses has the same function as that of sensors. The difference between sensors and senses are, with gadgets, sensors are programmed to identify certain objects or actions whereas in case of human being, one has to develop one’s own program for senses. One has to identify the good and bad action on our own. 

This is why it is important to control senses. These senses identify everything that comes within their range and relay the message to our brain. It is for us (our brain) to isolate genuine message to that of spam messages or threat and if the brain fails to identify these messages then we get in to trouble. 

In my earlier post on Rama Ekadashi, I have mentioned about senses and one of my reader wanted to know about these senses. Well, as mentioned in my earlier post, a human being has ten senses of which five are intellect senses. Other five senses are action senses. These senses will act depending on the messages relayed by our brain to them. So in simple terms our intellect senses identify object and relay it to our brain. And our brain relay message to our action senses to take appropriate action accordingly. This is how our body system works. 

Ideally one should be in control over one’s mind but in most cases mind takes total control and opt for wrong things in life which will eventually put oneself in physical, mental, social and legal problems in life.

In my next post I will be elaborating on these senses and how to control them.
