source of happiness: mind or heart?

Very well said:"its easy to fight external enemies but its very difficult to fight against the internal one"...and the thing become more tough when you have to fight against yourself...biologically all the thinking is done by mind..but the concept of "poetic mind" i.e. heart can't be denied completely..very often there are two things going inside..one favouring decision your mind as taken and other something very personal..mind can be influenced by what is going around you but heart never thinks in this way..all it thinks is about what give you the happiness..the big question what is the source of happiness...I think its a very relative term..it depends largely on satisfaction..satisfaction can be without success..without winning and getting things but without satisfaction there is nothing in being successful or being a winner...success is something which can't be measured based on parameters defined and created by society..its something that come from inside..mind's job is to see,analyse,compute and deliver but heart do not do any calculations..computation or cognition..it just prompts you to do what you really want...following what mind says you can become successful..but this success will only give you instantaneous happiness and it will only make you successful not satisfied...but following what your heart prompts you to do may not make you a winner or a successful well-being but it will give you satisfaction..in your heart lies the source of happiness.. sometime even loosing can give you immense pleasure though going by societal standard loosing means you are unsuccessful.. its very true but what when you loose to someone whose happiness...whose success matters for you more than your own.. for example: for a father losing to his son is a thing which gives him immense pleasure, he don't care about winning... sacrifice can be more pleasurable than getting sometime.. I believe heart is always right because it can see the reality..the reality which comes from inside..from the soul... mind sees what the society ask it to... never follow someone because he is successful, always follow yourself.. big-big persons like Dhirubhai, Ratan Tata are not only successful but they are/were satisfied.. they did what they wanted to do..they din't followed the standards..paths set by society.. they had chosen their own path..they had set their own standards.. I am not saying that everybody can be Tata or Ambani but everybody can be happy and satisfied... life is not just about winning wars,its about winning the battle.. we all are running in a long race with many halts.. we can win it only if we are satisfied with our actions and decisions.. satisfaction comes from inside..it can't be measured or achieved..it can only be realised and as I said earlier mind is not meant for realization so here comes the role of heart.. before taking any decision ask your heart..you will find most of the time it will say what your mind is already saying but there can be tougher situations when both of them will contradict.. the simple solution to this complex situation is follow your heart.. and the reason being senses can lie but your heartbeats can never lie..mind do its action based on what eyes,ears,hands,nose and mouth percept from surrounding..these can be wrong or misguided but your heart beats for you, your beloved ones and your soul.. it can never be wrong.. follow your heartbeats because only there the llife starst and the life ends...

Well..in my first post i talked about "dosti"...well its vey well said "Friendship can end in love but love in friendship never ends"...what is love..there are several definitions..several quotes by famous writers..several dialogues from hit bollywood and hollywood movies..but I think its all weird..Love can't be defined in words..it can't be painted in canvas..its something which can be felt..you can talk about it but you can't define it..you can write a book about love but you can't even say a line on what love is..the best line about love which I came across is "To love and win is the best thing..but to love and loose is the second best thing"..and I believe in this just seeing your beloved ones can make you happy to an extent which is out of imagination..seeing them happy can drive you crazy..its not always about winning and getting things but the irony in love is that you can be the happiest one in this planet even after losing..ask the one who were/are in love..those three magical words..those eight miraculous letters..what effect they can have..they are not meant for getting yes/no as reply..they are far more than that..they are to tell that you can do anything for someone's happiness..to tell that you don't want them but you want them to be happy...to tell that "its not you who is special but its me who is special because of you.."..its about telling them that "you reside in my heart upto a depth where everything ends..you reside in my mind upto a depth where everything fades away"...its about telling them that "whwn I close my eyes I see you and when I open my eyes I want to see you".. its far not about asking..its all about telling what you feel...its not about telling what you want but its all about telling what you need...
