"If we have never developed our religiousness -- that part of ourselves that involves our most powerfully transformative capacities -- it's as if we were walking around with one arm tied down....
If you have a spiritual practice, this would be a good time to double down on it.
If you don’t have a spiritual practice, this wouldn’t be the worst time to start one.

Hey, today I told my therapist that the adrenaline I\u2019ve been relying on for the past 10 months or so has kinda... run out.

He said he\u2019s been hearing that from like every other client this month, so if you\u2019re feeling that too, you\u2019re not alone.
“Hardly does our head begin to ache than we stop going to choir, which won’t kill us either. We stay away 1 day bc our head ached, another bc it was just now aching & 3 more so that it won’t ache again.” Teresa of Avila
You don’t have to be religious to have one.
If God isn’t your language, maybe creativity, intuition, love, the universe, our interconnectedness is.
Pick a thing to do and when you\u2019ll do it. Start small but assume you\u2019re doing it every day.

Tripundra Dhaaran - Paapa Vimukti
Our generations are fascinated about Tripundram being just a religious symbol. There are in depth meanings of such a Tilak on a Seeker's Forehead
The very first mistake is the way it is applied.
Tripund isn't applied with dry Bhasm, it should be made wet and then applied in a prescribed manner with proper use of fingers and direction of application. Bhasm is collected from various sources
The most important ones mentioned in upanishats are 1. Yagnya Kund Bhasm 2. Bhasm made from Cow's Dung alone. A special agnihotram was perform to save the Bhasma after that for Dhaarana. A major mantra while applying bhasm is Mrutyunjaya Mantra
Dwijas have a very long process of applying the Tripundram along with their Sandhyavandanam. For commoners there are some basic rules people have to follow while applying Bhasm
Bhasm Applied in Morning - Should be mixed with water and applied
Bhasm Applied during Afternoon - Should be mixed with Chandan and Applied
Bhasm Applied during and after Pradosh - Should be applied Dry as such
