"Clear Before Rushing"

Daily Sankalp · Mitra v3.0 Stub · Beginner
The Sankalp

I pause to clear my mind before entering the rush of the day.

Sauca — inner and outer cleanliness — and Viveka — discernment — both suffer when we move too fast. Rushing into action from a cluttered mental state means the action carries that clutter forward into everything it touches. Even a brief pause to clear before proceeding changes the quality of everything that follows.

✦
  1. Before rushing into the next thing, clear the residue of the previous one.
  2. Rushing carries the last situation into the next — contaminating both.
  3. A moment of clearing between acts is Śauca in practice.
  • Fresh engagement with each situation
  • Reduced carry-over reactivity
  • Inner cleanliness
ॐ
