Another relapse of vows - Explore power of decision making

Update on 17th Oct: Had kotthu Paratha last night from a hotel and had an unwanted dream which lead to loss of sublimation. Need to understand how to consciously be conscious of dreams. 

Update on Oct 14th: 50 tinyhabits in place in life. Live Manifestation happening per my identity. Yet on occasions in dreams especially and sometimes even in waking states, mind does behave instinctively, but now I observed even in dreams there's some conscious control, thanks to daily sadhana and contemplation. Having a good body with anti-aging manifesting doesn't mean your identity changed, only the dress I'm wearing changed, but the core principles which guide my life remain and there should be no compromise there doesn't matter what the occassion is, who I interact with, or what sort of thoughts come and go in mind. 

Update on Sep 6th: was able to use the power of decision to maintain my vows until 5th Sep. Which isn't bad. 

2 new learnings.

1. Don't plan vows /decisions for life, plan for next two days. In the immediacy of your consciousness. 
2. Use the "after I" prompt to manifest whatever you want to manifest


Update On 22nd July 2020 11.40 PM : since i didn't follow this today as well I renew my vow of being a Jivanmukta, Paramahamsa Brahmachari at this very moment by completing all my past incompletions by proclaiming Paramasivoham. 

Still unable to authentically practice brahmacharya in thoughts, words and actions. The mind is very primitive and it feels like it cannot be changed. Any sort of control is feels like repression. 

One thing that keeps coming to my mind again and again is what UG Krishnamurti mentions about the mind. That it's interested in its own continuity.

all said and done brahmacharya is important and I want to explore the power of decision making.
