Have awareness (of thoughts) or keep trying to be aware. Mind may touch the subject that it is interested in but you do not get perplexed or entangled with it. Sadhak needs to keep that kind of alertness and vigilance. Mind is always going to act according to its own nature and characteristics. It is our duty to save ourselves from that. If we are not aware mind will start the chain of thoughts immediately. It is the experience of many sadhaks that it is possible to prevent this chain of thoughts by being aware of the thoughts. With practice this is feasible and when this happens we develop definite self-confidence of having control over the mind. We also develop courage and spirit of adventure from this self-confidence. Think about this and put it in action. Then only life has any meaning.
