🪔 Your Energy Is Sacred — Where Are You Spending It? - By MS | Bhuangan Blog

There are mornings when your body rises… but your soul feels unfinished.

You’re not tired. You’re depleted.

Not because you haven’t slept, but because somewhere, without noticing, you’ve spent your most sacred resource — your energy — on noise that doesn’t deserve it.

🕉 In Ancient India, Energy Was Not Measured in Hours — But in Presence

We didn’t need planners or productivity hacks.
Because the moment we woke up, we knew:

👉 Energy was divine.
👉 Where we give it, we grow it.
👉 And if we waste it, we weaken not just ourselves, but the world around us.

Before mobile notifications and mindless scrolling, our mornings began with something sacred:

• The sound of cows being fed
• The rustle of a broom on a mud floor
• The quiet patience of gathering Parijatha flowers fallen gently from the tree
• The first shloka whispered with folded hands toward the Earth beneath us

Even now, thousands of years later, that wisdom hasn't aged.
It waits for us.
Every morning.

🌞 Affirmations Aren’t New to Us

Modern affirmations say:

"I am strong. I am peaceful. I attract what I deserve."

But long before that, our elders began the day with:

"Karagre Vasate Lakshmi, Karamadhye Saraswati…"

"karamule tu govinda prabhate karadarshanam"

"In my hands, resides abundance, in my palms, I hold wisdom.
And at my roots, divine guidance steadies me.

Before the world touches me, I touch the divine in me."

We weren’t just speaking to the universe —
We were reminding ourselves that our body is a temple, and energy is its offering.

🐄 The First Offering: Serving Those Who Depend on Us

In Indian homes, the first energy of the day didn’t go into emails or errands.
It went into:

• Feeding the cows
• Giving water to birds
• Cleaning the space so others feel peace
• Bathing before sunrise, so our body is ready to receive the day

Why?

Because energy multiplies when it serves something beyond you.

Taking care of animals was never a chore —
it was a spiritual responsibility, just like raising children.
A way to say: “I am here. I’m part of the living rhythm of this world.”

🔔 Morning Noise vs. Morning Meaning

Not all sound is sacred.

Today, our energy leaks into mindless noise:
Videos, voices, arguments, opinions that don’t even belong to us.

But energy, when spent with intention, becomes prana shakti —
the force that carries us through storms and still keeps us tender.

🌼 A Simple Ritual to Reclaim Sacred Energy

Try this:

1. Before touching your phone, touch the ground. Say a small mantra or whisper a thank you to the Earth.
2. Feed one creature — even if it's just the birds outside your window.
3. Speak your own morning truth aloud:
   “Let me give my energy only to what matters today.”

🌙 A Gentle Thought for You

Not every morning will feel calm.
Not every day will begin with grace.

But still — if you can pause, even for a moment,
and choose where your first breath of energy flows…
you’ve already shifted the rhythm of your life.

Even when the world is chaotic, your energy doesn’t have to be.
It can be a quiet prayer.
A bowl of grains for the birds.
A flower at the feet of divinity.
Or the silence of not reacting.

You don’t need to change everything.
You just need to spend your sacredness wisely.

💠 Final Whisper

If your heart feels dry like grass
If your home feels undone
Don’t rush to fix it.
Sit.
Remember who you are.
Where your energy goes, your life follows.

So spend it slowly.
Spend it wisely.
Spend it sacredly.
