Understanding and developing discipline allows for those who were once lost to possibly be found, and those who were once blind to possibly see, but only if there’s developed discipline in place…
If there isn’t some kind of developed discipline in place so your can understand your behavior, it will be difficult to proceed in a direction where there will be any expansion of truth. The first thing to understand is if you even have a practice that develops discipline. I don’t mean the practice of copying another’s way, although there’s nothing wrong with that, but if it’s in place to just keep you busy, it’s not really a practice to develop discipline. Although it is a practice, the discipline for the mind to quiet is what one needs to understand for the continuous expansion of truth. I’m sharing this because this is what has allowed me to be as I am today. There’s no magic to this, developing discipline has to be understood if one is to experience truth results, this is as simple as two plus two equaling four.
Understand your behavior, reactions, attachments, annoyances, and whatnot that it’s the lack of discipline that’s the driving force behind them. This lack of discipline is the driving force that blocks you from expanding beyond the nonsense of the Conditioned Mind. Without discipline in place that allows this to be understood, you might as well not practice at all because it’s just a waste of time and energy. Either do it so it develops discipline or don’t do it at all. You can only be free by understanding what it takes to be free, and only the discipline that puts you in harmony with life allows harmony with life; to me this makes sense. I practiced wrongly (no discipline) for many years and it produced results that weren’t beneficial, but I understand this now and learned from it. Because of this understanding, where I was once lost I’m now found, and where I was once blind I now see, but only because of having a practice that developed discipline…
