«One must be very vigilant to remember that he (initiated Vaishnava) is part and parcel of the trancendental body of Krsna, and that it is his duty as as part and parcel to give service to the whole, or Krishna. If we do not render service to Krsna then again we fall down» Nectar of devotion

This is from my journal (Mathias the scientiest) here on daobums. Id like to share it hear as well: Reflections 29.12-04.01: All in all I think im happy with this period. The experiments where as follows: - Carry a bag with a notebook, nectar of devotion, my chating beeds and a water bottle everywhere - Sauna three times minimum On the sauna part, I did as intented, on the first one, mostly. Night to saturday I did not sleep at all. The reason? Amphetamines and screentime. I am tempted to write this is stupid doing, but I wont do that. Reason being, this is far from the first time it happens, and rather than judge myself, id like to understand me as I would another. The above kind of ties in to the experments as well. On the morning after that sleepless night, I was leading the sauna sermony. That is to say, wishing people welcome, regulating the atmosphere and keeping the fire going, literally and figureativly. This was about three hours, with two different groups. Cant say I felt very drawn to hosting on zero sleep, but you know, responsibilites. I am happy that I walked (that is to say, not drive) the 40 minutes or so to the sauna and the coast. This gave me time to focus on the breath and the moment, while taking in a landscape quite a few people would consider among the most beautiful on our little planet (allthough there are no lack of beauty anywhere really). On the way, two helpfull thoughts entered: one how f small I am. How small we all are. Watching the fjords and the mountains, it becomes very clear that I am indeed very small. All of us. And that was liberating. Second, the guests where obviously there not because they wanted to experience me, but to enjoy the sauna. In their eyes, I am really not that important, and my responsibility is just to make it as smooth of an experience for them as possible. So, this was a three hour session, with two different sets of guest. The first one, went okay. Not great, but okay. When I wasnt entireley present, some other experienced saunamasters (as we call ourself ) was being very helpfull. In an hour or so I was back into it. Second half went great, all guests leaving with smiles and thanking me for the experience. So that is another important takeaway from this experience; humanities helpfull nature. When people see me being a little "off", they want to help out, just as I would do for them. It is okay not to be 100% all the time. So, for the period 05.01-12.01 I want to keep the experiments from the previous period: - Carry a bag with a notebook, nectar of devotion, my chating beeds and a water bottle everywhere - Sauna three times minimum As well as add: - waking up the same time everyday, no matter what. I think I will set it at 08.00. - Physical journaling as a way to empty my mind. - Walk to places I need or want to be - Breath in that PRANA - Visit temple, lets say... three times. And now, Ill go prepare some food for the people. Wish you a good week, Hare Krishna! Edit: aaaalso, the alarm clock woke me up with the following qoute: "walk by faith, not by fear." Good, no? Fitting, certainly. edit two: Om Sri Lakshmi! The power of now is here now!

Alright, so nothing is hidden to God anyway, so Id like to do a little purging. As my mother used to say, if something is bothering you and you keep it for yourself, the troll grows and grows. Once you let it out, it goes poof. The sun turns the trolls to stone. Further more, I belive autenthicity is healing to all. Hope youll join me. The only thing ill keep for my self, is things that could be hurtfull to groups of people or people who might be reading this. Hope you will join me in this exercise: - today i took morphin - I dont like my family - I wont clean untill it is REALLY neccessery - average screen time last 7 days: 8 hours - I never go to sleep without having a podcast/audiobook/music or likewise in the background, to avoid the stillness - I dont pay bills. (1) Interrest is theft, (2) im broke, (3), I belive that they will just disapear
