It is a foundational ethical concept in Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism, and forms the first ethical guideline of yoga. — Ai summary

Calm Your Space

Never be in a hurry; do everything quietly and in a calm spirit. Do not lose your inner peace for anything whatsoever, even if your whole world seems upset.
