Who drives the chariot of your life?

There were three friends. They entered into a contest as the who could put up with foul smell for the longest time. They brought an old goat warped in filth an placed in a room. One of the friends went inside the room an come back after five minutes a in that he could not tolerate the foul smell any longer the second friend also came back after a little while. Then the third friend went inside he smelt so foul that the goat came out.
Now this is an allegory similar when our egotism and desire enter our heart through the eyes. Ears or other senses happiness and joy free. Craving for sense enjoyments smells so foul that it almost kills us. It Vexes the jive a so much that he wants the flee like the goat in the above illustration.
Many times in proactive you are killing yourself to get job done. You managed to get a house constructed for you. At the end of it you feel so much harassment that you exclaim. It was such an ordeal that it exhausted me completely same thing happing when you arrange your sons or daughter marriage. Everybody has thin kind of experience. Craving for seems enjoyments looks clean and our heart it drives and joy out of it in makes the happiness life. At certain moments when you are sitting silent free form desire those moments are so valuable and so blissful that the opulence of Indra the kind of gods pales in comparison lathered so great is state when you are free from desire.
The gods have comforts an luxuries in abundance they are epicureans an therefore are unable To attain to supreme self the demons are tamasic in nature. Therefore they cannot discriminate between the real the unreal. Man is balanced not dominated by any of the three Guans Tamasic Raja sic and sativa. Any one of the three Guans many become dominate in him depending upon the company he keeps. By going into the tutelage of one who has transcended the three Guans one can transected them.
One more thing you should understand May nature is shaped by the company he keeps. If you keep company with wretched people. You too becomes petty and wrenched. If you get not the company of the altruism ones the saints or sadhakas who are noble an pure in character you too get elevated grading for sense enjoyments is wretched and seeks enjoyment through filthy sense organs. One who associates himself with desire become lowly one how associates himself with discrimination (vivek) Attains self realization becomes knowledge personified god personified. Association with discriminations lead us to god an association with desires lead us hell we are in the centre. Human birth is a junction form where we can select either designation.
The way desire and thoughts of weakness ruin man even death does not hormone that much death kills but one desire an thoughts of weakness kill one Agisn and again in cores of lives Craving for sense enjoyment makes one blind. The jives are so much overpowered by wretched filthy desires that they becomes blind to the lord of the Universe abiding in their hearts. You should ask yourself to who drives the chariot of your life.
The body I the chariot the sense are the horse. It all depends on who is the charioteer desire or the God within you. If the intellect decides the mind thinks about it and the sense act accordingly you will attain god realization. If you sense perceive; the mind thinks to attain that the intellect saint hoping in the endeavor one goes to ruin. At times your sense of discrimination dissuades you but sense mind and intellect drag you along to doing that the intellect is at variance with the heart listen to the heart because the lord in closer to the heart the intellect.
