Welcome back to Episode 43 of My Daily Thread Podcast! As we approach our 50th episode, a significant milestone, I'm thrilled to announce our special extra episode, the "50 Mission Re-Cap." Let's celebrate this journey together.   My Daily Thread Podcast is all about bringing a practical snippet of wisdom from Patanjali, the author of the Yoga Sutras, into our everyday lives. We aim to take this ancient wisdom and see how it can add value to our modern existence.   Most of us desire what Patanjali theorizes as the ultimate goal: to come to know ourselves and our true nature. To achieve this, Patanjali defines practice as a crucial means. We need to practice and remain non-attached to our actions and outcomes.   According to Edwin Bryant's commentary, any effort to "fix the mind in concentration" can be considered practice. This practical, pragmatic approach is essential, avoiding the pitfalls of dogmatism. It's about making the teachings usable and relevant in our daily lives.   In this episode, we introduce and chant the 14th sutra and discuss the concept of "dirgha kala," or practicing for a long time. This idea emphasizes the importance of consistency and persistence in our practice. It's not about quick fixes but about sustained effort over time to achieve true self-knowledge and inner peace.
