Everybody says, "Control yourself. Control the mind." People have been trying to do this for thousands of years.

Five thousand years ago, Arjuna asked Krishna a similar question. He said, "This mind is just like air. If you try and catch air in your hand, nothing happens. The fist just closes on empty space. How to control something that I can't even catch hold of?"

Krishna told him, "By abhyasa, which means spiritual practice, and by vairagya, which means detachment."

If you have no attachment to the objects that appear in your mind, then you have learned to control the mind in the natural way.
