Sunny Hinduja explains why the mind is both biggest enemy, greatest friend

Mumbai, Aug 30 (IANS) Actor Sunny Hinduja, who was recently seen in the series “Saare Jahan Se Accha”, says the “mind” can be both a greatest enemy and friend, depending on how one channels it.

“According to me, our biggest enemy and our greatest friend is the same—our mind.

It’s the mind that can bring arrogance, and the same mind can bring compassion, if it’s connected to the heart,” Sunny told IANS.

He added: “So that’s the biggest enemy, and we just need to channelize it.”

Sunny feels that if directed positively, it helps in working sincerely in any field, ultimately benefiting the country.

“Then, whatever work a person is doing in their own field, they will do it sincerely, and eventually, that will be good for our country,” said the actor.
