    This wisdom from HH Radhanath swami stresses the importance of Mind Control. There are few spiritual practitioners who call themselves religious persons but have not even a slight endeavor to control the mind from engaging in degrading activities that may not lead to very useful spiritual advancement. Controlling and engaging the mind in positive and constructive activities is the process of spiritual advancement.

    This point is worth contemplating! Sometimes we may think that we focus on externals of spirituality without understanding that the base principle is Mind Control

      So true. At times we become too mechanical forgetting the real purpose.
