Amazing!

What has amazed you recently....in a positive way? What about the amazing unfolding of divine potential revealing itself every day?
~Yogacharya Ellen Grace O'Brian from Dharma 365! Live Your Higher Purpose

Neuroscientists have found that our brains are wired to see and hang on to the negative. This comes from our cave-person ancestors to needed to constantly look out for danger in order to be safe. It is easy to get caught up in what is negative. It brings down our energy. So it takes self-discipline to look around and see and hold on to the amazing beautiful life around us. 

One of the three foundational principles of Kriya Yoga is self-discipline. We use self-discipline to follow our soul desire which is always guiding us towards living our highest and best life. Yogacharya O'Brian says that "We use self-discipline to thrive. We notice amazing. We feel it. We let it occupy our thoughts and our feelings. We notice how amazing our life is. We practice this—religiously and scientifically. The 'world is a tree bowed down with fruit'(1)." May we have the discipline to see that and make sure we enjoy it."
