Mind Body Soul


“Capture Knowledge to Free the Mind, Possess Understanding to Enhance the Body, Enslave Wisdom to Liberate the Soul.” – Young Black Successful

This is an original quote by Young Black Successful Clothing’s founder Maurice Simpkins. The quote is much deeper than what it may seem as a first read. In this post we are going to dissect it to pull the greater meaning and inspiration from it.

“Capture Knowledge to Free the Mind” - The use of the word capture in the first part of this sentence shows the dedication to working toward a goal. To capture something one must first seek it. In this case the object to be captured is Knowledge.  Mr. Simpkins is implying that you must seek Knowledge to obtain it. Knowledge is in abundance in your surroundings, but it will not seek you. The Mind is a complex system of thoughts and information stored inside of the brain. It processes information into a practical format. Once you have Captured Knowledge, allow your Mind to release the strongholds of inadequacy and reach a Freedom that will be limitless in its endeavors.

“Possess Understanding to Enhance the Body” – The notion of possessing understanding is not written to mean you will have a better perception of something Instead in this context it means to have a better appreciation of your Body.  The use of “possess” in referring to “understanding” suggests that you should be aware of your body and appreciate its importance to your success as a whole. When you think of enhancing your body, most focus on the physical.  The body is ultimately enhanced by what is entered into it. The foods you eat, and the beverages you drink are as important to your body as exercise. So, in your quest to Enhance your Body, focus on it from all aspects; physical (internal and external), mental and intellectual health.

“Enslave Wisdom to Liberate the Soul” – The term “enslave” usually carries a negative connotation, which is why Mr. Simpkins chose to use it in this text. He wants to demonstrate how wisdom is such a prize that if you want to keep it you must do so as if it is trying to escape you. Wisdom itself has been a subject of intellects for many generations and civilizations when trying to define just what “wisdom” is. It has carried many different meanings and depths. Wisdom is not a standard concept that can be seen as a concrete object. Wisdom is the ability for any person to have a deep comprehension of any situation that they may be faced with or expected to act upon. Wisdom equals mastery. With mastery begins liberation, Liberation of the Soul. The soul, like the Mind, is bound, but the soul is bound by the lack of wisdom. Many people are aware of their soul but haven’t once considered how their soul can be freed and made able to live.

Now that you have had an extensive look into the inner workings of the quote by Mr. Simpkins, we want you to read the quote again and see if you can see a deeper meaning in it as well. Feel free to post your comments below with your own interpretations of the text.
