protection

“The first and greatest victory is to conquer yourself.”

— plato

When your mind is steady, no insult can pierce you, no chaos can pull you from your centre. True protection is not built from walls, locks, or armor, but from mastery over your own impulses and fears. Self-conquest turns judgment into clarity, anger into compassion, and doubt into quiet resolve. The world may still test you, but your inner ground will hold. In protecting your mind from the storms of desire and illusion, you protect the deepest part of you — the place no one can touch.
