Few things to fix your life as a general Hindu - https://x.com/vijaimantrimf/status/1980813381562167740

Take astrologers as seriously as you would take a doctor. Grahas are not entertainment, they run your life. Get your chart checked by someone competent, not a YouTube reel.
Learn from a Guru, a spiritual mentor. Just because you can read English scriptures doesn’t mean you can self-medicate spiritually. A Guru sees your blind spots
Don’t take up practices from YouTube videos. No one shares their best secrets online. What works in a video may be incomplete, distorted, or even harmful without proper initiation.
Stick to one or two Deities at best. Devotion needs concentration. If you scatter it across twenty Deities without proper knowledge, your own mind becomes scattered.
Support your local Hindu temple. Pay proper dakshina to the pujari. The Deity doesn’t need your money, but service sustains the tradition and keeps blessings flowing.
Respect your ancestors. Do shraddha, tarpan, or at least remember them with gratitude. Forgetting your lineage weakens your own roots.
Read one scripture deeply instead of skimming ten. Whether it is the Bhagavad Gita, Ramcharitmanas, or Yoga Sutras—immerse. Shallow reading never transforms.
Keep your body sattvic. Food is prana. What you eat, how you eat, and when you eat directly affects your mind and sadhana.
Practice daily discipline. A small nitya karma—sandhya, a short japa, lighting a diya—done daily builds strength more than an occasional grand puja.
Honor festivals properly. Don’t treat them as calendar holidays. Each vrat and utsav has meaning—observe even a simple form sincerely.
Don’t mock other paths within Hinduism. Shaiva, Vaishnava, Shakta—they all reach the same mountain top. Criticism only lowers your own merit.
Keep company of dharmik people. Your sangha shapes your mind. Friends who ridicule dharma slowly drag you into the same ignorance.
Do seva. Service to cows, rivers, elders, or even quietly helping your neighbor counts as worship. Dharma is lived, not just chanted.
Preserve silence daily. Even a few minutes of mauna keeps your inner fire alive. Too much chatter disperses your energy.
Avoid shortcuts in spirituality. Tantra without purity, mantra without discipline, bhakti without surrender—these backfire. Slow, steady effort works best.
Focus on your KulaDevta / Kula Devi & regional Deities before going else where. They are your first guardians.
