AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

In raising children how can we balance equanimity and discipline🤨? 

Equanimity is an inner state. Discipline is an outer method. When we have love in the heart and true understanding then we can teach children without letting their reactions affect us. It is the sense of ownership and responsibility for their destiny that disturbs the parents. Both are illusions we must drop and replace with the idea of trusteeship.

Affectionately,
