Techniques for Mind Control
Step 1
Do not allow the senses to
wander stray in any direction
they want.Withdraw them
from wrong engagements.
Understand the meaning of life
by reading thought
provoking books like
Bhagavad-gita.
Step 3
Techniques for Mind Control
Purify senses by
Hearing bhajans, kirtans & devotional songs.
Visiting temple and having darshan of Deities.
Even if the mind is diverted, it will be
forced to concentrate on the
sound vibration “Krsna.”
The recommended method for
controlling the mind is loudly chanting and
hearing Hare Krsna maha-mantra.
It isn’t necessary to withdraw the mind from everything; it will automatically
be withdrawn, because it will be
concentrated on the sound vibration.
