That would be like a book to describe a complicated set of sluices to control the flood zone.

To be honest a lifetime, or lifetimes, of suppression practice causes the yogi to develop a suspension power whereby the mind heeds the commands to desist from creating thoughts during the meditation session.

It is more about who you are, as to your authority within the psyche. Merely saying that you are it or that you are absolute or that you are God or are the equivalent of God does nothing to cease the shenanigans of the mind.

Steady practice day after day with acute observation informs the yogi about his lack of power to control the psyche. He must attempt to control the thinking process by various methods just to see which one works for him.

For instance:

• Does chanting a specific mantra, or saying an aphorism, stop the mind dead in its tracks when it is involved in displaying mentally a set of ideas or a sound pattern heard or learned before?
• Does giving a willpower command stop a thinking event in the mind?
• Does tearing the attention away from the thinking mechanism in the mind, cause that thinking process to cease?
• Does withdrawing interest from a thinking process cause the thinking to cease?
• Does becoming disgusted with the impulsion of the mind during meditation, cause the mind to cease a mental event?
• Does beginning a new idea in the mind cause a current idea to cease?
• Does being a neutral or critical observer of mental displays cause those ideas to cease?
• Does having faith in a yogaGuru or a deity immediately stop a thinking pattern to terminate?
• Does changing the location of the observing iSelf cause the mind to cease thinking patterns?
• Does wholeheartedly listening to naad cause the thoughts to disappear?

That is a list of some mental/emotional actions (kriyas) which may be used for ceasing thinking during meditation.

Which is effective for the particular yogi?

Obviously, this is not as simple as one may desire it to be.
