Let go of the past and live fully in the present from "summary" of Autobiography of a Yogi (Unabridged Edition) by Paramhansa Yogananda

The past is like a shadow that follows us wherever we go, casting a veil over the present moment. It is easy to get lost in memories of what has been, allowing them to cloud our perception of what is. But living fully in the present means embracing the here and now with open arms, without the burden of past regrets or future anxieties. When we hold onto the past, we are shackled to a time that no longer exists, unable to move forward into the infinite possibilities of the present moment. We may find ourselves caught in a cycle of rumination, replaying old stories in our minds like a broken record. But this only serves to keep us stuck in a loop of stagnation, preventing us from experiencing the beauty and wonder of each new day. In order to truly live in the present, we must learn to let go of the past. This does not mean erasing our memories or denying our history, but rather releasing the emotional attachments that keep us tethered to what has already been. By acknowledging our past experiences with gratitude and forgiveness, we can free ourselves from their hold and step into the boundless potential of the present moment. Living fully in the present requires a mindful awareness of our thoughts, feelings, and actions in each moment. It involves being fully present with whatever we are doing, whether it is eating a meal, taking a walk, or having a conversation. When we are able to immerse ourselves completely in the present moment, we can experience a sense of peace and contentment that transcends time and space. The present moment is where life truly unfolds, offering us endless opportunities for growth, learning, and transformation. By letting go of the past and embracing the present with an open heart and mind, we can cultivate a deeper sense of presence and connection to the world around us. In doing so, we can awaken to the beauty and magic of each moment, allowing it to unfold in all its glory before our very eyes.
