We all have 108 battles to win in our mind, but we don't really want to admit it's always about time to start defeating them one by one.
What normally happens is what the Kula Shaker song says "I'm just a man who's battling with his mind. One hundred and eight battles within the...Minds forever changing what you began..." So since this fact is so true I say let's take our mala and just chant on an on, someday we may win the battle.
