The purer the mind, the easier it is to control. Purity of mind must be insisted upon if you would control it. Perfect morality is the all in all of complete control over mind. The man who is perfectly moral has nothing more to do; he is free.
The control of the mind depends on its purity of mind. We are unable to control our mind because at present it is impure. If we live in our life which can makes the mind more inpure, and at the same time make assiduous efforts to control the mind, this will be futile. Again, if without doing anything regarding purification of the mind, we just go ahead to control our mind, we are not likely to succeed, except in the rare case when we start with a highly pure mind. What we need is system of discipline for controlling the mind which will also obliterate its impurities. http://www.spiritualcenter.blogspot.com/
