How to cut the chain of thoughts in your mind ?

Our mind can’t remain in vaccum . Its basic nature is to fill the vaccum. The Mind is rebellious child. That’s why to silent the mind is the most difficult task. When we try to sit silently for meditation , you will observe that the thoughts are coming and making disturbances.  It seems this is a unbroken chain of thoughts  but here is the catch. There are gaps between chain of thoughts or there is a little pause before the next thought comes up.

See there is pause or gap between two thoughts. If you pay complete attention to the gaps then slowly you will realise that the chain of thought is subsiding. If we cut the thought before the next one  then these waves of thoughts will stop. With increasing awareness our observing capacity also increases and it becomes easy to silent the mind.

Its takes practice and time.

But with focus and awareness we can make this rebellious child to sit under control.
