CONTROL OF MIND

Swami Sivananda

You can control the mind through steady practice and dispassion. You can be established in the superconscious state only by long practice, with zeal and faith. Without dispassion or non-attachment or indifference to sensual enjoyments, no spiritual progress is possible. Annihilate the impure mind with the help of the pure or higher mind and transcend the higher mind also. The senses cannot do anything without the co-operation of the mind. Do not try to drive away impure thought. The more you try, the more they will return. Pill the mind with divine thoughts. The impure thoughts will gradually vanish by themselves. Do not try to control the mind through violent methods. You will hopelessly fail. Use the approved and intelligent methods.

Become soldiers of truth, soldiers fighting with the senses and mind, with Ahimsa, Satyam, discrimination, dispassion as weapons, soldiers with the message of universal peace and cosmic love.

- Swami Sivananda

Life in Spirit is real living. You will lag behind if you depend upon bodily life. Thoughts of
God cheer up the body, mind and spirit. Names of God soothe the nerves. Love of God bestows

peace and joy. Knowledge of God breaks the fetters of Karma.
