As part of the Ayudha Pooja, one must become reverent in both body and mind. When you become reverent toward something, you create a certain distance from it.

By becoming reverent of them, your body and mind will become separated. In the same way, your mind and body are separated once you become fervently aware of who you really are.

As you become aware of your body and mind, you will come to the end of suffering. If you are far enough away from it, your life can remain untouched.

You are not wounded in any way by this.

On the auspicious occasion of Ayudha Pooja, let us take the pledge to become spiritual.
