It is very important for the mind to be aware of the direction in which its heading - buddhi or kama, and to know either it must be aware of its origins. The ego must be complete with the empirical records and the mind free enough to realize the mistakes of yesterday, for a clearer tomorrow. Today life flies by at a breakneck speed and we are at constant battle with ourselves to keep our awareness levels up. We try to keep physical records like photos and videos, maintain bonds and relationships with people (past and present) and now more than ever use technology to maximize our efficiency.Yet at the end of it all, it all comes down to the freedom of the mind. If it is unable to free itself of the limitations of its origins and not forget them at the same time, then there isn’t much hope for growth.
