Before going to bed, a person takes an exam for the day he has lived. Regular practice of the evening mood clears the mind of defilement accumulated during the day.
By evening, everyone accumulates fatigue. Fatigue arises from those actions, emotions and, most importantly, the mistakes that we make during the day. As a result, we are affected by a force that makes us sick. The sickness comes unnoticed from fatigue. Every day the colors of life become paler and paler, but we, as a rule, do not notice this immediately.
There is a general opinion that sleep relieves fatigue. But this is not entirely true. It all depends on the mood before going to bed. If you go to bed in a fresh, cheerful state, sleep will indeed have healing power. If you go to bed in a depressed mood, then often there is not enough strength for treatment. Therefore, it is so important to develop a habit of getting ready for bed properly.
How to do it? It is enough for a child to think about a new toy, and he is already sleeping happily. But adults should instill true values for children. Wise mothers read good fairy tales or parables about God to children. Adults, before going to bed, should forget about all their affairs and devote a little time to prayer. This gives the right mood and strength the next day.
The Vedas say that every day before going to bed we must remember the main goal of our life - the understanding of the eternal spiritual nature and the establishment of spiritual relationships with God and the people around us. To do this, you should introduce into daily practice reading spiritual books, prayers, repetition of the holy names of God or wish everyone happiness in daily practice.
Often during the day we do a lot of unnecessary things and it confuses the mind. As a result, a healthy mood is lost, and we feel broken in the body. Therefore, a person must necessarily direct his mind in the right direction, both in the morning and in the evening. Sometimes it turns out that this is the only way to deal with the main cause of disease - the lack of constant awareness of the meaning of one's life.
If during the day you experience negative emotions, swear, sort things out, then your body and psyche endure severe suffering. The mood accumulated throughout the day has a great influence on sleep and the quality of the next day. So, a bad thought destroys the body even in a dream, as a result of which a person develops diseases. That is why it is so important to observe the evening mood. It helps to overcome the daily defilement that acts on our consciousness.
