    How to control it

    3 months ago 61

    In Jain Dharma, “control it” is usually done by controlling the mind, speech, and body, and especially the kashayas: anger, ego, deceit, and greed.

    Simple Jain ways:

    • Practice self-awareness: watch what thought or passion is rising.
    • Pause before reacting: remain silent for a moment.
    • Do pratikraman: review your actions and repent for any mistake.
    • Increase samayik: stay in inner calm and equanimity.
    • Study Jain scriptures: right knowledge helps reduce wrong impulses.
    • Reduce desires and possession: less attachment means more control.
    • Keep good company: stay near satsang, साधु-साध्वी, and virtuous people.
    • Practice forgiveness: anger becomes weaker when forgiveness grows.
    • Follow ahimsa: avoid harming others in thought, word, or deed.

    In Jain view, real control comes not by suppression, but by steady awareness, restraint, and detachment.

    If you want, I can explain this in the context of anger, lust, greed, or the wandering mind.
