The Practice of Brahmacharya [ 22M ]

I am starting The Practice of Brahmacharya from tomorrow.
Not because I am perfect, but because I am tired of living unconsciously.
I have failed before, and I may fail again—but this time, I will not stop observing myself.

This journal is my commitment to awareness, discipline, and truth.

Tomorrow, I begin..

Chastity in thought, word, and deed, always, and in all conditions, is what is called Brahmacharya

In brahmacharye, chastity is main but it also includes a routine which focuses on all body.

Like speaking less, only if necessary, otherwise lost in memory of god.

Eating in balance, not overeating, & not eating junk, spicy, eating fresh food.

Keeping eyes on ground & only seeing if necessary. Not wandering eyes here & there, otherwise it would get stuck in its desires.

Turning deaf towards voices which can lead to our downfall.

Calling name of god from tongue.

Not touching anyone. Only in emergency.

Having a holy routine which includes reading sastras which keeps purifying our dirt of mind.

A fix time for sleep & waking up early before sunrise.

Doing good for others. Thinking good for others. Helping the needy & keeping others before ourself. Always staying humble & egofree.

Leaving places which causes distress in our path.

Having gratitude towards everything.

That’s interesting, somethings there are very similar to Jesus’s teaching, specially about purity and carefulness of what we look at.

3 am is good because I can do all the activities till yoga practice in this timeframe. Yeah, I will try. I know It will not be a perfect start. But this is my ideal routine. No matter what I will try to stick to this ritual. I have a habit of changing routine every 2 weeks, but this time I will stick to it for a year.

This looks interesting but I can’t do meditation which could be very helpful.

For meditation search for sandeep maheshwari video

Or you can sit & chant god name for meditation.

Day 1 ( 9 feb 2026 )

From today i am starting this pious journey, i am very tired of my hypocrite mind, it just deceives me all the time. i talk very intelligent and big things, but my action does not match my words. my mind is hypocrite. It take control over me. what should i do. i don’t know.

And then comes this guilt and shame, i don’t want to meet people, i don’t want to go outside.
i feel like i have done a huge crime.

But anyways, time will heal everything. I will not brag about my routine here. Just post about how i am feeling. I have quit all other forms of social media. This is the only community i am using.

Thank you.
