Skipping the basics that keep you steady; presence drifts and mistakes snowball.
Pramāda is careless inattentiveness—going on autopilot, skipping the small practices that keep you grounded. It shows up as rushing, ignoring signals, or “I’ll do it later.”
Try this: Before you close your eyes tonight, recall one moment today when you were fully present. Hold it for three breaths.
Remedy: Mindfulness and attention. Restore presence with small acts of remembrance and steady rhythm in practice.
Carefulness is the opposite state
It brings you into this moment
Where we are connected to grace
Auto pilot off
Sensory system on
Take care to do it now
Later is not here
rushing; mistakes; injury risk
