The mantra for that stage of life, that interim stage, is "Keep on keeping on." Can everyone repeat that? "Keep on." I was leaving Hawaii one day, late for a flight, and a brahmacari ran out to the window of the car and said, "Give me some instruction."

The time early in the morning, one and a half hours before sunrise, is called brāhma-muhūrta. During this brāhma-muhūrta, spiritual activities are recommended. Spiritual activities performed early in the morning have a greater effect than in any other part of the day. (SB 3.20.46,purport)Full Video: https://youtu.be/ELDHfqq2118---------------------…

Everyone has an external situation, meaning psychophysiological nature, based on their modalities. And you can rise above that—anyone can rise above that.
