The Discipline of Alignment

Many view spirituality as a collection of beliefs or a comforting philosophy. However, true spirituality is a discipline—a consistent effort to align one's life with the nature of the divine.

This alignment requires vigilance. It means watching our thoughts and correcting them when they veer into negativity or judgment. It means choosing love over fear, patience over anger, and truth over deception in our daily interactions.

Just as a musician practices scales to master their instrument, a spiritual seeker practices virtues to master the art of living. This is not about rigid adherence to rules, but a conscious choice to live in harmony with the flow of existence.

Every moment offers a choice: to align with our lower nature or our higher self. The discipline of alignment is the practice of consistently choosing the latter.
