Have you been lazy lately ? Did you notice, you were also adamant about giving in to the laziness ? Why is it that when faced with two paths, one of action and the other of inaction, we often choose the latter? 🤔 In this episode, we delve deep into a fascinating story of Garuda 🦅, the majestic bird who learns the true essence of duty and devotion. Garuda's quest to free his mother from slavery, consuming the elephant 🐘 and tortoise 🐢, holds a deeper meaning that resonates with the struggles we face in our daily lives.

💡 Discover the hidden symbolism behind these ancient tales—how laziness and stubbornness become our inner enemies, and why listening to the sweet voice of our inner guide can change everything. Alongside heartwarming exchanges between father and daughter, this episode is filled with life lessons, practical wisdom, and the warmth of storytelling. 🌄 From the trials of overcoming negative tendencies to the importance of maintaining discipline and energy through daily rituals like pranayama 🌬️, this episode offers more than just a story—it offers a path to inner freedom.

Tune in for an enlightening journey that blends mythological insights with modern-day challenges! 🎙️💫
