We are taking on the first aspect of the Shivapuri Baba’s threefold discipline. The first, bringing order into our external life. We will work with the second, bringing order into our minds and emotions and the third, the spiritual discipline down the line.
Can we bring order to our lives? Can we notice what we are doing throughout the day, can we eliminate everything in our life that is unintentional and disorderly? A tall order, but this is what Baba proposes before moving on to the second discipline.
We take this on for 55 days, until our next meeting on March 25th. In everything. In the food, we eat, not eating too much or too little, in our life, no harmful activities in it, insuring each thing we do be intentional with the overview of creating order. Another way of looking at this is we’re trying to dwell in a nonreactive world within.
