True transformation begins with accepting where we currently are, rather than fixating on where we wish to be. When we become deeply aware of our current state, we acknowledge our true emotions, limitations, and strengths. This honesty allows us to release any illusions or pressures of perfection and helps us grow from a space of authenticity. The journey of spiritual growth, therefore, begins with embracing ourselves as we are, without resistance or denial.
By focusing on the present moment, we invite divine grace to guide us on a journey that is natural and attuned to our own rhythms. Yearning to start from an imagined ideal state can disconnect us from the opportunities, lessons, and blessings of the now. When we walk our path with acceptance, we align with the flow of divine energy, allowing true transformation and growth to unfold with ease. Let’s pray to Sri Ammabhagavan to start from where we are.
