How would i Empty my mind? also how do i obtain eternal control of it?

Question

My mind is constantly conjuring hypothetical situations and recalling past events. This is particularly annoying when I am trying to get to sleep (which is hard).

I guess it is sort of like being continuously day dreaming. By eternal control of my mind I mean the ability to learn or retain whatever information I wish to.

Thank You.

Answer 1

Well you can empty your mind with any sharp or blunt object. But I know what you mean, thats why im up now. I usually take sleeping pills or imagin myself in a calm and relaxing place and ignore everything else.
