- Mind can be controlled by constant effort to fix it on God.
- Sit alone and watch the mind and its movements.
- Be indifferent and unattached. Remain a witness. Do not identify yourself with the thoughts.
- Do not think of the past. Do not plan for the future. Live in the present.
- Read spiritual books. Do meditation regularly. Participate in satsang.
- Do help a person in need or suffering.
- Repetition of a mantra destroys impurities of the mind.
- Make the mind inward. In this Kali Yuga, the easiest way for controlling the mind is singing the Lord’s name.
