Why 21 days?

For any idea to become an experience in you, it takes at least 21 days. With any truth, the first seven days will be the understanding period. The second seven days will be the practicing period. The third seven days will be the experience – the miracle period!

Here you will really see the miraculous results of your practice. For example, suppose you are facing a really serious problem with somebody - but you decide to meet him with this same deep non-violent mood. Your very presence, the very strength of your non-violence, suddenly turns that person around and everything goes well. Suddenly, he becomes relaxed and respectful towards you! When you see these kinds of miracles happening in your life, you will have the strength and courage to continue practicing these truths.

As you keep practicing them, you will have more miracles in your life. It becomes a virtuous circle.

In the understanding period, you need more technical knowledge. In the practice period, you need techniques. In the miracle zone, you need the Master's support, energy and of doubts! During this period, you will not be able to really carry that non-violence in you. You need more technical knowledge, greater clarity about these great truths.

Practicing period: The second 7 days will be the practicing period.

You become ready to give the new understanding a chance. You tell yourself, 'Alright, if I carry hatred inside, I am the one who is going to suffer. So let me forgive them.' You honestly start the practice, living it inside and outside. At this point, various techniques can help you focus and integrate your practice.

Miracle period: The third 7 days will be the real experience – the miracle period!
