Dipankar,

I am a Psychotherapist by career. I guess the bottom line is how unstable emotionally you are. Have you ever been seen by a Psychologist or counselor? All of us are unstable in our thoughts, to some degree. Do you read banis regularly? I would start with Japji and read it faithfully every day. I would then learn Sukhmani Sahib. Breath deeply and mentally chant inside yourself throughout the day. When you start to feel unstable, take a deep breath and cut your negative or crazy thought with Sat Nam or Wahe Guru. Don't allow yourself to go out into all directions, just keep bringing yourself back to the breath and the mantra. Good Luck. You can email me with any questions at gtkhalsa_2000@yahoo.com GTKK
