When a man is able to keep his tongue under his control, half of his problems will get eliminated.

You all know a horse. It stands for instability.
It keeps on moving some part or the other of its body all the time.
Then, how is the rider able to control such a horse?
He puts a blinker for its eyes and a bridle
(a piece of iron) in its mouth held by the reins.
Even a strong and powerful horse will come under control thereby.

(B) Similarly, when man is able
to keep his tongue under his control,
half of his problems will get eliminated.
That is the reason, why the ancients practiced Silence.

They never indulged in meaningless practices.
Every activity or task of theirs had an inner significance.
Silence helps you to control the mind, which in turn
leads to conquer desires and finally confers happiness.
