Observe the  ever-moving trunk of an elephant.  It  keeps moving  forward,  backward  and  side-ways.  It  never stays  stable.  Link  up  the  trunk  to  a  chain  and  direct  it. Then  the  elephant  moves  in  the  desired  direction.  Your mind  is  no  different  from  the  elephant's  trunk.  It  keeps jumping  from  one  thing  to  the  other.  It  is  aimless.  It  is capable of wasting time and speech.  Link it up to any little  work  of  goodwill. When  it  gains  the  direction  and the  related  discipline.

Link  up  the  trunk  of  your  mind to  the  respiration  in  you.  It  not  only  releases  you  from the  luggage  of  thoughts  but  also  gains  inward direction.  Kriya  (action)  is  the  essential  quality  of  the mind.  Keep  it  in  action  (Kriya)  externally  or  internally. Then  you  become  a  Kriya Yogi.
