How to train our mind?

A spiritual discourse on taming the restless mind using a parable from Gurudeva. "Our mind is chanchal. Chanchal means very restless, and that is normal for a human mind, but you need to learn how to train and tame your mind." "In the same way, our minds are very restless, running around. We should just let it go; that is its job, to roam around and have thoughts continuously. Then, slowly, slowly, train your mind towards Guru Bhakti." A speaker recounts Gurudeva's parable of a king's untamable horse and the patient trainer who tamed it through gentle, persistent companionship and reward. The story serves as an analogy for taming the restless mind through devotion to the Guru and the path of Bhakti, rather than forceful suppression. The session concludes with the guided recitation and explanation of a Sanskrit mantra focused on meditating on the Supreme Self within the heart. Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

When your sister comes, what kind of temptation do you have?... So why don't you awaken that kind of thought in you, in which form you want to see?'" A spiritual teacher delivers a satsang on Guru Purnima, exploring the dual nature of the Guru as both formless consciousness and physical guide. He discusses purifying the mind through sacred perception—seeing others as mother, sister, or daughter—to transform energy and dissolve ego.
