Discretion is the Better Part of Valor

Let steady precision carry you (Dhanurveda). True valor is rooted in the Divinity within us all and commitment to that purpose. Yet these days, discretion has given way to righteous indignation…force.  Thanksgiving Reminder?

The Architecture of Strength

Let steady precision — not force — carry you.

Bruce Lee said, “Power comes from discipline.”
But where does discipline come from?

True discipline does not come from forcing yourself.
It comes from fascination.

Fascination is the engine that propels all of life.
It is the opposite of force.
The opposite of tension.
The opposite of doubt.

Fascination is love.
When you are fascinated by something, you are seeing the Divinity within it.

Fascination contains love, logic, power, commitment, steadfastness, vision, understanding, and purpose.
It is why we devote ourselves.
Why we build.
Why we endure.
Why we move forward, forward, always forward.

I have dedicated my life to Mt Soma because it fascinates me — the idea of creating something that heals humanity, ends suffering, and brings fulfillment to all.
That is life’s ultimate purpose. Isn’t it?
And fascination is what gives us the strength to pursue it.

🎯 Dhanurveda: The Vedic Architecture of Strength

Dhanurveda — the Vedic science of archery — is not just about combat.
It is about life.
Life is archery.
Every action is an arrow.

The classical sequence is universal:

1. Root → Prithvi (Earth)

The archer first roots into the earth.
Stability, grounding, immovability.
Everything begins with connection to the ground. the earth, the essence, the Absolute, the Transcendent.

2. Align → Sushumnā (Central Channel)

Before drawing the bow, the warrior “straightens the inner channel.”
This is the vertical alignment of the spine and pranic current.
 “the current rises upward” 

3. Open → Hṛdaya (Heart Expansion)

Just before release, the chest and inner being must open, not contract.
Open = clarity, fluidity, non-resistance.
This is the internal “opening of the channel.”

4. Drive → Mokṣa (Release)

The release is effortless, committed, precise action.
Not forced, but unified.
This is your “Drive.”

 Root → Align → Open → Drive — maps exactly onto:
Prithvi → Sushumnā → Hṛdaya → Mokṣa.
It is the energetic and biomechanical logic of classical archery, of perfect Sumo, and of life itself.

🧠 CNS Insight: The Real Barrier to Strength

Deep in the tendons live the Golgi Tendon Organs (GTOs).
These sensors shut down force output when tension spikes suddenly or when the pattern feels unsafe.
When GTOs trigger, they can take 48–72 hours to reset.

This is why a lift can feel smooth one moment and impossible the next.
The nervous system protects long before the mind understands.

Body (muscle): fear → locks up
Mind: doubt → blocks

Both stop movement.
Both stop life.
And both can be dissolved.

 Closing Thought

True strength is not force.
It is fascination organized into precision.
When the root is stable, the channel aligned, the heart open, and the release clean — strength emerges effortlessly.

That is the architecture of strength — in the gym, in Dhanurveda, and in life.

Relative Worlds Key toward Perfection

How to get out of your own way: Mind and Body

body [muscle]: fears → locks up

mind: doubts → blocks

Both stop movement. Both stop life.

Both can be dissolved.

CNS: golgi organs in tendons blocks [once triggered takes 48-72 hours to reset GTOs monitor sudden spikes in tension.

The four Dhanurvedic aspects, aligned to daily life/Sumo: 

Root → Align → Open → Action [Sumo:Drive]:

🌿 Dhanurveda 

1. Root → Prithvi (Earth)

In Dhanurveda, the archer must first root into the earth.
Stability, grounding, immovability.
Everything begins with connection to the ground.

2. Align → Sushumnā (Central Channel)

Before drawing the bow, the warrior “straightens the inner channel.”
This is the vertical alignment of spine + pranic current.
Your “current aligns upward” is exactly this.

3. Open → Hṛdaya (Heart Expansion)

Just before release, the chest and energetic center must open, not contract.
Open = clarity, fluidity, non-resistance.
 “channel opens” 

4. Drive → Mokṣa / Release (The Arrow’s Flight)

The release is effortless, precise action.
Not forced — but clean, committed, unified.
This is your “Drive.”

🔱 Your Mantra is a Perfect Dhanurvedic Sequence

Root → Align → Open → Drive
maps exactly to:

Prithvi → Sushumnā → Hṛdaya → Mokṣa

It is literally the energetic and biomechanical logic of classical archery — and of perfect Sumo, of all life.

CNS Insight

The Golgi tendon organs (GTOs) — deep sensors in the tendons —
shut down force output when tension spikes suddenly or when a pattern feels unsafe.
Once triggered, they may take 48–72 hours to reset.

The nervous system “protects” long before the mind even understands what happened.

Cosmic Weather: Perspectives Unleashed

Progress Doesn’t Always Feel Like Progress While You’re In It …  crazy times … The Big Picture is really so simple

Space has weather patterns.  Weather affects the psyche.

You don’t have to feel confident to be successful — you just have to keep functioning like someone who’s going to get there.

The world situation today – nuts really… The big picture is yet so simple. It will all come out in the wash…

It is all perspective – big picture.  Are these times terrible.  AI, politics, left right, up down, phase transition.  It is all sorting out.  Nothing is really happening, does all this really matter?

Hidden in Plainview: The mystery of Sanskrit

Getting in the zone: Sumo Deadlifts, Archery, Behavior and Beyond.  Dhanurveda… What is a Vedic Pandit?… really

Related to Yajur veda.   Divine engineering.   Generally viewed as founded upon archery.   It’s all interconnected.  Sumo, Archery, Psychodynamics.  Pujas, life in general.   The art of purification…  How to transcend in life.  

It’s all right there.  Modern physicist knew it. fundamentals of technology, physiology, physics, ufos, planes of existence… everything

My Compass

Overall Trend: Everything is Fine.  Changing times are always scary.  No worries

AI and the Crossbow

Transition:  Inflation, hate, wars, all par for the course.  Steady hand on rudder. Keep your eye on the ball.

Division is vogue these days.

Too much information, not enough knowledge

As the leader of Mount Soma, I have been working, with help from Chatgpt, on the following:

My Compass:

Central Principle

“Parasympathetic dominant — remaining steady, and even.”
“Mount Soma progresses through me, not by me.”

Physical

Grounded.
Act with precision, not force.
Let strength come from alignment and breath.

Mental

Attentive.
Observe more than react.
Presence before motion; rhythm before effort.

Emotional

Calm.
Serenity is strength.
Choose recovery over reactivity — in body and in life.

Spiritual

Conduit.
The work fulfills itself through clarity and surrender.
I am the vessel, the visionary, the architect — yet we manifest it as one.

Practical Reminder

Parasympathetic dominant in every act, breath, and conversation.
Breathe — Observe — Restore.

Guiding Mantras

Steadiness is strength.
Light gives form to the shadow — I need not fight the shadows.
Mount Soma will build itself through me, not from me.

Feeling Your Edge

Spreading Out the Cards Face Up on the Table

We all from time to time get out of balance. Question is : What do you do about it.

how to move through hurt and evolve thinking
letting it go vs a healthy relationship with it

emotional maturity

Key to good councilor:  be a kite on the tail.. good listener,  understand, don’t overspend, merging is not colluding

work through it or hold on to it.  Many hold on to it the rest of the rest of their lives.

What you are feeling within your body, psychodynamic centers, i.e. chakras

Physiology of the psyche

#1 Live Challenge; Communication

Mind/Emotions/Wisdom/Integration.  

When emotions are triggered, they’re usually dominant, a person can then justify anything with words, with the mind, the intellect, and people do.  Emotions ultimately dominate: how to manage them wisely.

What you are feeling within your body, psychodynamic centers, i.e. chakras

Thinking/assuming they know what you are talking about is a gateway to miscommunication.

emails are notorious for poor communication

Stay, Alive!

Projection, Perception, Gods, Immortals, and the enlightened.  What do we actually ‘see’?  Also, we are now on the threshold. The future is unimaginable.  Witness it.  Be a part of it from the ground floor.
Join in from the ground floor
.

The entire world will not all be enlightened but many societies will be.  The world will always have two poles to spin around.

Without projection there is no universe.  Perception is what we actually do see, projections is what we think we see.  When they become the same thing, the universe ceases to exist,

just as Lord Krishna predicted.
