Indriya-s by nature sway to external influences. Even though you cannot win over them at this stage, you should try hard & focus on the divya-mangaLa, subhAshraya form of Him
Just meditating on My (Krishna) form is enough to extinguish all your sins. It subjugates all your indriya-s, controls the all-powerful feeling of Desire & lets you get Atma-sAkshAtkara with absolute ease
Vishnu Purana supports above statement of Krishna!!
उक्तं च यथाग्निरुद्धतशिखः कक्षं दहति सानिलः।
तथा चित्तस्थितो विष्णुर्योगिनां सर्वकिल्बिषम्।।
A searing fire along with wind burns a log with aplomb. In same way, Vishnu residing in the hearts of yogi-s burns all their sins

Control all your indriya-s & meditate on Me(Krishna) as sarva-antaryami.
[The meaning here is, I am not different from Him]
The yati who does this great meditation, inside him jnana takes a deep & unshakeable roots
(D)

Same as (V) & (A).
The one who does this exalted yoga & subjugates his indriya-s is known as an 'aparoksha jnani'

There lived a brahmana by name Devasharma in the south. He lived an ideal life following his household duties (tretagni upasana, bhagavad aradhana, helping atithi etc..). He also performed many yajna-s with utmost shraddha
Even after leading an ideal life, his mind was at great unease. He was very disturbed & wanted a solution to it
He went to a nearby forest where tapasvi-s were meditating. He did all kind of sushrusha (service) to them & finally one managed to tell his problem to one of them
That rishi suggested him to meet a cow-herder by name Mitravan in a place called Punya near Godavari Banks.
Devasharma met him at a grazing land in Punya-nagari. His face was absolutely shining & radiating with great calm.
