MIND : ITS MYSTERIES AND CONTROL : 7. 2





Chapter-7. THE  PSYCHIC  STATES  :


2. IMPULSES


An impulse is a sudden propelling force.

There are three kinds of impulses, viz., impulses of thought, impulses of speech and impulses of action. Mouna (silence) checks the impulse of speech.

Meditation checks the impulse of wrong thinking and wrong action.



There are two important impulses.

They are the sex-impulse and the impulse of speech.

There is an intimate relation between impulse and imagination.

Imagination induces the impulse.

Impulses must be controlled by reason and will and meditation on God.
