Premanand Maharaj Ji
How do I bring my senses and mind under control to reach true feeling?
Rules give power over the mind
Without disciplining the senses and mind through fixed rules, you cannot reach bhav. A power appears in rules, and with it the senses and mind are held in check.
If we do not discipline our senses, bring our mind under discipline, or bind ourselves to rules, we will not be able to reach bhav at all.
