The Energy You Spend

What you do now (when fully aligned) will take you to where you hope to be in the future.

There is no need, however, to stress about this since happiness today, and tomorrow (as an important part of the journey), is one and the same and always heavily dependent on how effectively you can maintain your equanimity in this ever-unfolding present moment (no matter what is happening right now–and certainly no matter what has already happened in the past).

Keep focus on/in your awareness right now, withdraw your energy from being recklessly consumed/used up/wasted in/by the noise, negativity, distractions, and so forth in/of this world. When you do this, you will deepen and maintain your joy now and forevermore…which, if you are paying attention, is a defining part of your goal.

Pratyahara. Your task is to become better at your vital energy management and conscious/intentional focus/use of life-force energy.
