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.
