However, in the negative Honey Suckle State the person lacks inner mobility. His mind is so much entrenched in the past that he is always dwelling in the memories of the days gone by—the missed opportunities, regret for missed chances and unfulfilled hopes; the sagely advice of a doting parent ignored during youth; the lavish spending of father’s hard earned money, resulting in the present financial difficulties; the loss of a sincere friend or a loving relative—depressing thoughts for events gone by which have no relation to the present conditions of the person. On the other side, at the time when one is sad or unhappy and feels bored, his mind may go back to the period of happiness with memories of a large happy family, company of good sincere friends, a crucial Badminton match in which he came from 2-12 to 14-12 to win the match for his school and the tremendous applause he received from the packed galleries.
In either case whether the mind is engrossed in happy or sad memories of the past, it loses contact with the present, and cannot order the body to act according to the present circumstances. He loses interest in the present and makes no effort to overcome the present difficulties—a state of stagnation when the person is no good for himself and no good to the society.
Home-sickness is a result of negative Honeysuckle state. What tragedy falls to such people can be gauged from a recent historical event.
In 1947 after partition of India, there was mass exodus of the whole communities from Pakistan to India and vice versa. People were cruelly torn asunder from their old moorings. They had to shift lock, stock and barrel from their ancestral homes to new unseen places in an unknown country with different climate, different surroundings and very often with different food-habits. Those who could adopt themselves to the changed circumstances and thought of the then present, not only survived but made very successful citizens of their new country. But the negative Honey suckle people could only lead a miserable existence on to an object death. In a normal person, occasion arises when he cannot forget a certain event in the past or in a reverie after a certain event his mind starts recollecting past events and forgets the present.
