Selfdiscipline is key to self-mastery from "summary" of Bhagvat Gita ka Yog (Hindi) by Sri Sri Krishna Prem
Self-discipline is like a strong and steady horse that can carry us to the destination of self-mastery. Just as a rider guides and controls the horse with skill and precision, we must learn to control ourselves through self-discipline. Without this control, we are like a riderless horse running wild and unrestrained.
Self-discipline requires us to make conscious choices and to stick to them, even when faced with temptation or distraction. It is about setting goals and boundaries for ourselves, and then holding ourselves accountable for staying on track. This requires willpower, determination, and a strong sense of purpose.
Through self-discipline, we can overcome our weaknesses and bad habits, and cultivate positive qualities and virtues. It is through this process of self-mastery that we can truly reach our full potential and become the best version of ourselves. Just as a sculptor chips away at a block of marble to reveal the beauty within, self-discipline helps us chip away at our own imperfections and limitations to reveal our true essence.
Self-discipline is not always easy, and it requires practice and patience. Just as a muscle grows stronger with exercise, our self-discipline grows stronger with each small victory. It is a continuous process of self-improvement and self-awareness that requires dedication and commitment.
In the journey of self-mastery, self-discipline is the key that unlocks our full potential and leads us towards a life of purpose, fulfillment, and inner peace. It is the foundation upon which we can build a life of meaning and significance, and it is the path that leads us towards our highest self. Through self-discipline, we can conquer our fears, overcome our obstacles, and achieve our goals.
