Read more…Hare Krishna to all the devotees All glories to srila Prabhupada I have heard that out of all the senses , tounge is the hardest to control and that one who can't control the tounge can't advance in devotion.Also how uncontrolled tounge leads to uncontrolled other senses (especially genitals, i.e, illicit sex).But I find it very difficult to control it, even when I can control nonsense talking a little, overeating is very hard to reduce. How can I reduce both nonesense talking and eating?

I do have some addictions which I'm trying to overcome, and I do achieve that, sometimes for a week, two weeks maybe, but ultimately when I think "oh I've done it", eventually I end up returning to it, even when I think "it's so easy to give up". Whenever that happens I feel…
