Guest guest Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 Teachings of Swami Vivekananda We should put our mind on things; they should not draw our minds to them. We are usually forced to concentrate. Our minds are forced to become fixed upon different things by an attraction in them which we cannot resist. To control the mind, to place it just where we want it, requires special training. It cannot be done in any other way. In the study of religion the control of the mind is absolutely necessary. We have to turn the mind back upon itself in this study. (VI. 39) Source: The Complete Works of Swami Vivekananda. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
