Do you think everything in the mind starts getting old the moment we become aware of its existence?

Question

Thanks for your kind response!

Answer 1

how to get old @  the moment we become aware of its existence?

we become aware of its existence by realising it.

Answer 2

actually it no longer exists once we become aware of it.  

Answer 3

well put yes I definitely think that. That's why I sometimes think the thinking mind is a disease. What I mean by that is that a mind which analyses everything can be brilliant but also afflicted because it is so detached and objective. This I believe affects the emotions. Ignorance is bliss!

Answer 4

No... how would the mind get old enough to realize it's own existence if it only starts to realize its own existence when it gets old?

Answer 5

everything can be reborn one day.

Answer 6

As soon as you become conscious of something, it leaves an impression and becomes memory, When that happens it instantly becomes old because you no longer see the thing in the present reality, but you are looking at it through memory and an image. And that applies to everything, including your self-image which is creating all the other images as "not-me" images. When you become aware that the images you have of everything is what is creating the consciousness of yourself, you see that everything, all the images you have, is you.

Answer 7

"What we think, we become."
