                The Gross and The Subtle

         Man is constituted of the body and the mind. The gross aspect is the body and the subtle, the mind. Both the aspects require to be kept fit.

         When the body is affected its effect is on the mind too. Similarly, any changes in the mind makes a corresponding effect on the on the body. Sorrow in the mind for example pulls down the other. Of the two the mind is more powerful. It is so because the subtle governs the gross. When the mind is kept buoyant the body responds to be hale and hearty.

Keep the body virile and the mind serene.
