You are able to conquer all the world but you are unable to conquer your own sensory organs.” Therefore, in trying to control and conquer our organs, it is very necessary to have confidence in ourselves and faith in God. For one who has no confidence in one’s own self nor faith in God, it becomes impossible to conquer his organs.
