Mind is not only daily made, but hourly made. In every minute it changes its color and shape like a chameleon. It is very wavering and unsteady. The temperament of a man can be greatly modified by environments, education and experience.

Mind is ever changing and wandering. This wandering habit of the mind manifests itself in various ways. You will have to be on the alert always to check this wandering habit of the mind. “One thing at a time and that done well is a very good rule as many can tell.”

If all the thoughts are eliminated, then there remains nothing which can be called the mind. So thoughts are the mind. Again there is no such thing as the world independent of and apart from thoughts.

Thoughts gain strength by repetition. If you entertain an evil thought or a good thought once, this evil thought or good thought has a tendency to recur again. Thoughts crowd together. Just as the birds of the same feather flock together, so also if you entertain one evil thought all sorts of evil thoughts join together and attack you. If you entertain any good thought, all good thoughts join together.

If you entertain evil thought that thought attracts all sorts of evil thoughts from others. Thought is a living dynamic force. You pass on good thoughts to others. You pollute the world with your bad thoughts. You help the world with your good thoughts.

Drive off negative thoughts. Become positive always. Positive overpowers negative. You can do nice meditation when you are positive.

The mind can be controlled by continuous practice. You must keep it always occupied in good thoughts. If you slacken your efforts, idle thoughts will at once enter. Continuous practice can bring the mind under control, quite easily.

Sit at ease. Close your eyes. Look within. Withdraw the rays of the mind. Silence the thoughts. The mind will move now to its centre or source slowly.

Live in the solid present. Do a thing which the mind does not want to do. Do not do a thing which the mind wants to do.
