A tendency to be late leads to all sorts of difficulties, disappointments, and complications. None of these will support you in reaching the state of bodhi (enlightenment/awakening). Even if you don’t have a massive problem with punctuality, chances are that habits like rushing, being disorganized, distracted, or forgetful will present a roadblock on your way to higher levels of consciousness.
If you do have a habit of being late, or you find yourself rushing somewhere way too often, now is a great time to realize and accept that faulty punctuality isn’t a cute or quirky character trait. Besides pumping lots of adrenaline into your bloodstream and causing you anxiety, lateness, and hasty behavior are deeply disturbing your inner peace. Don’t just simply trust us on this one. See for yourself by intentionally being on time for every appointment you made today.
