Some people may ask, how can we calm or still the mind? First remedy is to develop the awareness with knowledge of being separate from all kind of activities of the mind. After being separate from the mind, do not take interest in any and all kind of the activities of the mind. Keep watching it with equanimity (સમતા) and balance. This means stay as witness and watch the mind. If this process is done in correct way, we will experience that the mind is being quieter. Second remedy is to discard whatever springs up in the mind, and concentrate it on Naam-Smaran or Bhavna or Chetna of the Guru or on the peace in the heart.
