How the mind is run by the five demons

From Dassan Dass Ji :

Jagmit asked a question about if we can focus on various areas of our body during simran where the five demons live as this will help in driving them out of our body. (Head - ego/pride,  chest - greed and attachment,  sex organs - lust).

Very good question Jagmit and sorry for the late reply.

The focus during simran should be on your mind and not various parts of your body where these five demons live.

As the whole purpose of simran is to win over your mind.

You need to understand how the five demons work to rob you of your amrit.
These five demons use your mind to make you do what these demons want you to do.

These demons bring thoughts in your mind, your mind process the information provided by the demons and uses its own wisdom or worldly wisdom to react and instruct your five action limbs to perform the deed as instructed by the mind.

You have five senses, which are seeing, hearing, smelling, touch and taste.

These five senses signals are  sent to your mind and your mind is under the control of the five demons, so whatever the mind feels is as prompted by the five demons.

The mind's response is obviously driven by the five demons too, as they also rule your own wisdom and all the worldly wisdom.

So the key point is that your mind is the decision maker of all your actions and reactions.

This way your mind is in control of you and the five demons control your mind and it's decisions. That is why the key is to bring your mind under your control and out of the control of the five demons.

Your mind will be replaced by param jyot (supreme light) and all your sense signals will be processed by the divine wisdom.

That is why you need to focus only on your mind while doing simran.  When your mind goes into silence the demons are driven out of your body by itself.

Satnaam is the infinite divine power that will drive all your demons out of your body and bring them under your control below your own feet.

When you go deeper and deeper in simran then Satnaam will travel to all parts of your body by itself and drive these demons out by itself.

Satnaam will open all seven centers (chakras) of spiritual powers inside yourself and when these are illuminated then there will be a constant flow of amrit(divine energy) from these centers of spiritual powers and this constant flow of amrit will fill you up with amrit and then nothing negative can touch you.

In this way Satnaam will vibrate in every cell of your body and make you a winner over the mind.

Your mind will be replaced by param jyot (supreme light) and all your senses will go under the divine wisdom. Then these five demons will become your servants.

Maya will become your servant.

So in order to win over your mind all please focus on your simran.

Gur Preeto :  just to add that baba ji maharaj said that people say "mind, body and soul" but the order should be "mind, soul and body"   because the mind and soul are held in the container of the body. And only by doing Satnaam is the mind conquered. The soul (supreme light) takes over and the body is transformed.

Dandaut to sat parbrahm ji and all his bhagats and creation.
