Samata (Balance)
from Live Vedanta · host Chinmaya Mission Niagara
When faced with hardships and our will to persevere weakens, we often feel overwhelmed and impatient with ourselves and others. Those with stronger willpower are more patient and balanced and remain unaffected by their contexts. Samata (balance) is when our willpower is stronger than world power; this is accomplished by being focused and remaining centered despite inner distractions. Unitasking, using a planner, utilizing our time effectively, and engaging in sadhana can help us become and remain balanced. These discourses are from our Parenting Culture community, a space for seekers striving to be better in their caregiving responsibilities through the practice of self-development. You can always join Parenting Culture live on Mondays, catch up on the previous episode, or start from the beginning of this season. For those on the journey of self-development, Chinmaya Mission Niagara provides a community forum to listen, reflect, and contemplate. Follow us on Instagram and Facebook for more updates about upcoming live workshops, courses, and more! Chinmaya Mission is an international non-profit organization working to transform individuals through the knowledge of Vedanta.
