How can I control my mind Krishna?

Lord Krishna says in the Bhagavad-gita that the mind can be controlled by constant "practice and detachment."(—Bhagavad-gita, 6.35). He says that wherever and whenever the mind wanders, due to its flickering and unsteady nature, we must bring it back under the control of the Self (—Bhagavad-gita, 6.26).

It is certainly worthwhile knowing how to control the mind. Lord Krishna says in the Bhagavad-gita that the mind can be controlled by constant "practice and detachment."(—Bhagavad-gita, 6.35). He says that wherever and whenever the mind wanders, due to its flickering and unsteady nature, we must bring it back under the control of the Self (—Bhagavad-gita, 6.26). The mind is like a child; a child is attracted to everything. It wants everything but not all things are good for it. Some things are even harmful...so the parent must discipline...Sometimes the child becomes angry and cries but the parent is determined to give the best thing even if at first it seems uncomfortable to the child. In a similar way the intelligence and the spiritual being that we are must control the mind. The mind is attracted to so many material things and everywhere we look, someone is telling us that if just have one material thing or another then we will be happy...but it always proves to be false. No matter how much we get, still we're dissatisfied. So the mind must be disciplined and by practice we must learn to pull it away from those things that are not good for it. Detachment is helpful because if we can understand that real happiness comes not from material things, but rather from a loving relationship with Krishna, then we can become detached from all the pushings of material desires and we can control the mind. Therefore, "constant practice and detachment." Ultimately, we must develop a higher taste. Lord Krishna says, "The embodied soul may be restricted from sense enjoyment, though the taste for sense objects remains. But, ceasing such engagements by experiencing a higher taste, he is fixed in consciousness." (— Bhagavad-gita 2:59). That higher taste is engaging in devotional service, the easiest of which is chanting the Lord's holy Names: Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare.

I hope this is helpful.

Manna bottles are made from Food Grade 304 Stainless Steel, which is the same material that flatware, cutlery, and food/beverage manufacturing and processing equipment are made from. Our products are FDA Food safe, and are also BPA and lead free.

Q: How do I recycle my bottle?

Yes, stainless steel water bottles are recyclable, however, you cannot recycle them curbside. After leaving your home, your curbside recyclables travel to a Materials Recovery Facility, or MRF, where they are sorted, crushed, baled, and shipped to a manufacturer for reuse. Your stainless steel water bottle doesn’t make the cut because it is uncrushable by design: Great for you — not so great for your local MRF. Instead of tossing your bottle in the recycling bin, take it down to a scrap-metal yard and recycle it there! Reduce your carbon footprint by keeping your stainless steel bottle until you have other assorted metals to recycle, and make the trip once you’ve got a nice collection to turn over. If you don’t have a scrap-metal yard near you, consider these alternatives for reuse and disposal: 1. Donate steel bottles to a thrift store where families in need can use them. 2. Use your wide lipped water bottles to keep soup hot for lunch. 3. Store dry-food mixes, such as pancake mix, in them to bring with you on camping trips; just add water, shake, and pour onto a hot skillet. 4. Use 3 or more to make a children’s ring toss game (9 or more for 9-pin bowling!) 5. Designate an old steel water bottle for your pet — fill it up and keep it in the car so they always have water on the go. 6. Use it as a vase for holding fresh-cut flowers. When you don’t have fresh flowers in the house, use it to water your household plants.
