Re: Can we control mind ?
Pranam Koya
Sm. has explained it atanu ji illustrated it with a nice story and agnideva has expanded with nothing left to say.when he says
By contrast, in Sanatana Dharma, a sin is not an act against God, but an act against the tenets of Dharma; it's an act against your own self. A sin is an intentional and purposeful transgression of Dharma, which generally involves thought, word and deed.
Most of us are not able to think only positive and alturistic thoughts or to perform only such actions, yes? Therefore, it is recommended to us that we offer all of our actions by thought, word and deed unto the Divine, and/or to ask for forgiveness in our prayers.
Kayena vacha manasendriyairva
Buddhyatmana va prakrite swabhavath
Karomi yadyad sakalam parasmai
Narayanayeti samarpayami
Whatever I do with my body, speech, mind or with other senses of my body, or with my intellect and soul or with my innate natural tendencies I offer (dedicate) everything to Lord Narayana.
Krishna says
karmendriyani samyamya
ya aste manasa smaran
indriyarthan vimudhatma
mithyacarah sa ucyate
The deluded ones, who restrain their organs of action but mentally dwell upon the sense enjoyment, are called hypocrites. (3.06)
Jai Shree Krishna
Rig Veda list only 33 devas, they are all propitiated, worthy off our worship, all other names of gods are derivative from this 33 originals,
Bhagvat Gita; Shree Krishna says Chapter 3.11 devan bhavayatanena te deva bhavayantu vah parasparam bhavayantah sreyah param avapsyatha Chapter 17.4 yajante sattvika devan yaksa-raksamsi rajasah pretan bhuta-ganams canye yajante tamasa janah
The world disappears in him. He is the peaceful, the good, the one without a second.
