Steps of great significance
1. The mind can be controlled by practice, constant effort to fix the mind on God or spirit, and isolation, dispassion or non-attachment to sensual things.
2. Sit alone and watch the thought of the mind. Be indifferent, non-attached. Remain as a witness. Do not identify yourself with the thoughts. The mind will come under your control.
3. Do not think of the past. Do not plan for the future. Do not allow the mind to build images. Live in the solid present.
4. Do a thing that the mind does not want to do. Do not do a thing that the mind wants to do.
5. Study of spiritual books, austerity, charity and meditate with the spiritually minded overhauls paves a long way in the control of mind.
6. Chanting of any mantra and worship destroy the impurities of the mind, make the mind inward, induce isolation, help concentration and eventually lead to control of mind and attainment of God-consciousness.
7. It has been said, in this 21st century, the easiest way for controlling the mind and attaining end from this species is singing the Lord’s name.
8. Food influences the mind vegetarian food (milk, fruits, etc.) calms the mind. Non-Vegetarian food (meat, alcohol, etc.) excites the mind. Take vegetarian food. Practice balanced (moderation in diet).
9. Constant, selfless service with self-reliance, feeling of unity with all, is highly efficacious in purifying and controlling the mind.
