What is the garden of your mind? How does The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari<\/em> use a garden as a metaphor?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The garden of your mind is a metaphor used in The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari<\/em>. Your mind should be thought of as a garden that requires care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Garden of Your Mind<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The garden from Yogi Raman\u2019s story is a metaphor for your mind. <\/strong>Gardens must be properly cared for and cultivated in order to grow, and the same is true of minds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

John has a garden in his backyard. Julian suggests that John would be upset if he went back there and threw toxic waste on it. However, many people let such toxic waste contaminate their minds. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This \u201cwaste\u201d is in the form of fears and anxieties; worrying about the past and the future contaminates your inner garden. Just as gardeners fiercely protect their gardens, you must stand guard over the garden of your mind and let only the right kinds of thoughts enter. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

On an average day, the average person has 60,000 thoughts. 95% of them are the same thoughts he or she had the day before. People spin their wheels worrying about problems and negatives in their lives, serious or trifling. This is an enormous waste of energy and potential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The garden of your mind is the one thing in the world that you have total control over. You can\u2019t control what happens around you, but you can control how you respond to it. When your mind is unfocused or distracted by worries, you waste energy and tire yourself out. <\/strong>Over time this energy waste impacts your creativity, motivation, and overall mood. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Therefore, managing your mind is the key to managing your life<\/a>. After training their minds for years, the monks of Sivana could perform superhuman feats. Yogi Raman<\/a> can slow his heartbeat at will, and go for weeks without sleeping. Julian himself shows not only improved physical health<\/a>, but energy and optimism beyond anything John had ever seen from him before. Julian credits this to his improved mental and spiritual health<\/p>\n\n\n\n

John is still having a hard time seeing the connection between his mind and his body, so Julian shows him a small card he got from Yogi Raman, bearing a quote from the sage Patanjali. The quote says that when you are inspired by a great purpose, your mind breaks through its usual limits, and it\u2019s like waking up in a new world. You suddenly find immense strength and abilities you never knew you had. John, who has often felt the surge of strength and inspiration that comes from serving some great purpose, now understands the lesson. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Find Your Happiness by Finding Your Focus<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Concentration is the basis of mastering your mind. <\/strong>You must be able to take all of your mind\u2019s power and focus it on a single task<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Julian illustrates this concept with a riddle: Imagine that you are lost, and freezing cold. You have a pile of kindling, a letter from your best friend, a can of tuna, and a magnifying glass. Unfortunately, you have no matches. How can you start a fire?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The answer is to put the letter among the kindling and focus the sunlight with the magnifying glass. The letter by itself does nothing, but by concentrating the sun\u2019s energy on it, you\u2019re able to create a fire that warms all of its surroundings. The tuna was just a distraction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once you understand concentration, you are one step closer to finding happiness<\/a>. The secret to happiness<\/a> is to find what you love doing, then concentrate all of your energy on doing it. <\/strong>When you find what you really want to do, your work will seem like play, and will energize you instead of draining you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

However<\/em>, what you do should help others in some way. As Victor Frankl said: Success and happiness<\/a> can\u2019t be pursued. They come as side effects of dedicating yourself to a greater cause. (Shortform note: For more on creating a meaningful and happy life, read our summary of Frankl\u2019s Man\u2019s Search for Meaning<\/em><\/a>.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That doesn\u2019t mean you have to quit your job, sell everything you own, and go searching for your passion like Julian did, but try shaking things up. Leave your comfort zone and do something out of the ordinary. Stop being so practical and logical, and try some of the things you\u2019ve always wanted to do.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
