Sri Upadesamrta is a famouse book written by the sage Sri Rupa Goswami who was one of the most prominent saint in Vaisnavism. The first verse of the book speak about controlling the senses and mind. So I will share will all of you, and hope it will bring some peace to life. A wise and self-composed person who can subdue the impetus to speak, the agitation of the mind, the onset of anger, the vehemence of the tongue, the urge of the belly and the agitation of the genitals can instruct the entire world. In other words, all persons may become disciples of such a self-controlled person.
