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.  Resources: Connect with Ananta on Instagram for empowerment to ignite the fire of spiritual transformation and awaken your inner guru: www.instagram.com/ananta.one Become the hero of your own spiritual journey with empowering daily rituals from the ancient Indian goddess tradition: www.theancientway.co/wayofthegoddess Grow, learn, and heal, while nourishing your body, mind, and soul and making inspiring new spiritual friends in our Circle of Life Community: www.theancientway.co/community Ignite the fire of spiritual transformation to awaken your inner guru and lead, serve, and love with integrity by becoming a Spiritual Warrior of The Ancient Way: www.theancientway.co/spiritualwarrior Live in harmony with nature,  embody ancient wisdom, and glow with radiant well-being by becoming a Wellness Ambassador of The Ancient Way: www.theancientway.co/wellness-ambassador  By accessing this Podcast, I acknowledge that the entire contents are the property of Ananta Ripa Ajmera, or used by Ananta Ripa Ajmera with permission, and are protected under U.S. and international copyright and trademark laws.
