The purpose of meditation is not to control our thoughts, but to stop being controlled by them.
Meditation need not be an attempt to control every thought. Thoughts may continue to arise.
The practice can change our relationship to them. We notice a thought without treating it as an instruction that must be followed. The aim is less mental force and more freedom in how we respond.
