Description

Acharya Prashant outlines ten resolutions for a new year, focusing on spiritual growth and conscious living. The first resolution is to maintain a diary, regularly noting how many minutes of the day were spent for liberation and which actions were driven by nature's conditioning. This diary should be shown weekly to someone whose opinion is feared, to ensure accountability. The second resolution is to track monthly expenses to determine how much is spent on liberation versus on the stomach, skin, pride, attachment, and lust. The third is to evaluate one's presence and travels, questioning what percentage of one's time and journeys are dedicated to liberation. The fourth resolution is to study chapters of a scripture every week and make notes. The fifth involves dietary changes: every month, one should renounce one food item and add a new one, with renunciation also considering items that harm animals. The sixth resolution is to gain new knowledge about the world daily from any field, such as history, science, or politics. The seventh is to gain competence in one physical sport within the year. The eighth resolution is to develop an art form, preferably related to music or a musical instrument. The ninth is to become part of a meaningful campaign to raise awareness for the environment and animals. The final resolution, for those who are financially able, is to take responsibility for the upbringing and education of a needy child. This involves acting as a guardian and investing personal time, not just donating money, to ensure the child's development.
