Disciplining of mind

Mind is monkey which can’t sit at one place,
Mind is a monkey which is drunk so will do all nasty things,
And mind is a monkey whose tail is on fire which will destroy everything.

That mind, which behaves like a monkey is to be disciplined. It can only be disciplined with practice and patience. Then only that monkey will become tame.

A saint told a middle aged man.

Do you agree or disagree with the saint?

  5. totally agree. सही कहा है। दिल तो बच्चा है जी, पर दिमाग सच में बंदर है। उछलता कूदता रहता है। खाली तो रहता ही नहीं। खाली हो जाता है तो शैतान बस जाता है।
