How to remove dirty thoughts- Premanand Maharaj
Distracts the mind. Many times bad thoughts come to mind. Dirty thoughts start coming and the mind starts wandering. By doing this many times a person gets surrounded by negative thoughts. This happens with most people. Many times bad thoughts start coming to mind while performing puja. While walking on the path of bhajan, kirtan and spirituality, the mind starts wandering. On the contrary, thoughts start coming to mind. A devotee asked the same question to Pramanand Maharaj, what should one do if dirty thoughts arise in the mind and the mind starts wandering?
Answering this question of the devotee, Premanand Maharaj told why this happens. Premanand Maharaj told that worldly entertainment is dear to the mind. It is not the fault of the mind, wherever we apply it, it starts appearing there. Now if you are concentrating on the spiritual path, then it wanders everywhere.
It is necessary to control the mind
The mind has developed the habit of wandering in the five senses. In spirituality the mind is controlled but till now you have been under the control of the mind. So when you do not support your mind, it will start supporting you. Because the mind cannot do anything if you do not want to. Like the mind is saying I should see and we are saying not to see. The mind will say a hundred times, see, but if you don’t say this, then it will start appearing there. Although initially this will happen only for some time. After which your mind will try to control you and when you do not come under the control of your mind, it will try to burn you. In such a situation, if you tolerate that burning sensation of the mind, it means that you have controlled the mind and if you don’t, then the mind has controlled you.
If you make your mind a disciple, you will become a guru.
If you make your mind a disciple, you will become a guru. But today people are under the influence of their mind and follow whatever their mind tells them. But if you want to walk on the right path, come on the path of spirituality, then you will have to make the mind a disciple. If the mind does as you say, then you can move towards becoming a Mahatma. It is very difficult to free oneself from the subjugation of the mind. Only a rare person can do this.
