The power of silence
Once upon a time, in a small village in ancient Nepal, there lived a young man named Siddharth. Siddharth was a curious and ambitious child who always had a thirst for knowledge. One day, he heard about a wise old Buddhist monk who lived on the outskirts of the village and was famous for his profound teachings on the power of silence. This intrigued Siddharth, and he decided to seek out the monk to learn more after a long and arduous journey. Finally, Siddharth arrived at the monastery where the monk resided and was greeted by a serene and peaceful environment. He immediately felt a sense of calm washing over him. The monk welcomed him and invited him to sit down and share a cup of tea.

How to control your mind
The nature of our mind always tends to generate negative emotions and thoughts, such as anger, desire, lust, or jealousy. Perhaps resentment is one of the negative thoughts that our mind likes to dwell on. So how can we control it? I am a great teacher. The Supreme Buddha introduced a gradual training program where you can practice controlling these negative emotions or thoughts in your mind. Without further ado, I will present it to you. But before you follow these steps, there is one thing you must practice and master, and that is awareness. If you are not aware of what you are thinking, you cannot control it. Therefore, you must fully understand and be completely aware of what you are thinking.
