Thoughts, Peace and Strength
Fewer the desires, lesser the thoughts. Become absolutely desireless. The wheel of mind
will stop entirely. If you reduce your wants, if you do not try to fulfil your desires, if you try to
eradicate your desires one by one, your thoughts will diminish in frequency and length. The
number of thoughts also per minute will diminish.
Fewer the thoughts, greater the peace. Remember this always. A wealthy man who is
engaged in speculation in a big city and who has a large number of thoughts has a restless mind
in spite of his comforts, whereas a Sadhu who lives in the cave of the Himalayas and who is
practicing thought-control is very happy in spite of his poverty.
Fewer the thoughts, greater the mental strength and concentration. Suppose that the
average number of thoughts that pass through your brain within one hour is one hundred. If you
succeed in reducing it, by constant practice of concentration and meditation, to ninety, you have
gained ten per cent of the power of concentration of mind.
Every thought that is reduced adds strength and peace to the mind. Reduction of even one
thought will give mental strength and peace of mind. You may not be able to feel this in the
beginning as you do not possess a subtle intellect, but there is a spiritual thermometer inside to
register the reduction of even a single thought. If you reduce one thought, the mental strength that
you have gained by this reduction will help you to reduce the second thought easily.
