The mind is fickle in me and the flesh is weak. Attempts at concentration are sometimes successful, but often end in disappointment. Kindly help me.

First of all, take care of your health. Become strong by proper food and mild exercises of
Asan and Pranayam. Observe Brahmacharya. Then destroy desires, worries, anxieties, building
castles and vicious qualities. Lead a contented life. Reduce your Vyavahara. Live in a spiritual
atmosphere like in Haridwar, Rishikesh, Uttarkashi, etc. Observe Mouna for full three months.
You can easily control the mind.

From "May I answer that" by Swami Sivananda (1987-1963). More Informations on Swami Sivananda: on the Website of Divine Life Society, Photographs of Swami Sivananda, German Pages on Swami Sivananda
