008: Befriending the Divine Nectar of Discipline with Ananta Ripa Ajmera

Discipline often sounds like a scary word that many of us perhaps associate with being punished for things we did - or did not do. In The Bhagavad Gita, one of the greatest spiritual texts that is essentially a manual for how to be successful on the battlefield of our daily life challenges, it says "What is like poison in the beginning becomes like nectar in the end. What is like nectar in the beginning becomes like poison in the end."

Discipline is like a sacred fire that transforms the difficulty involved with overcoming your resistances into the power of winning a victory over your own self. It is what empowers you to taste the divine nectar of your true Self: the source of abiding love, peace, happiness, balance and radiant health. 

Learn more about how discipline is the greatest act of self-love, and how to start seeing it as an empowering force that supports you along every step of being true to yourself.
