Control Your Thoughts

Stick to any rule that, appeals to your reason. Follow it with faith and attention. You will
evolve and reach the abode of eternal happiness. Performance of one’s own duties brings happiness,
quick evolution and freedom.
Events occur in succession or order. There is perfect harmony. The three things viz., desire,
thought and action always go together. It is thought that moves the body to action. There is thought
behind every action. If you entertain bad thoughts you will do bad actions.
Learn to become wise. Discriminate. Control the thoughts and desires. Watch your thoughts
carefully. Do not allow any evil thought to enter the gate of the mental factory. Develop passion for
Self-realisation. You will attain the goal of life.
