When we speak a sacred vow out loud, as opposed to simply reciting it in our minds or writing it on paper, our voices project our promises into the deepest reaches of the universe. It is important that we remember that a vow made with the sincerest of intentions has the power to carry on past our earthly lifetimes. A well-chosen vow encourages commitment and dedication.
A sacred vow, once spoken, becomes a part of your existence forever. Your view of the world around you may change, and your predominant thoughts and feelings will no doubt evolve with time, but the spirit in which your oaths were spoken will remain unaffected. It is up to you to determine how you will stay true to your vows while your inner and outer worlds transform. Your strength and character will inevitably be tested, as circumstances can make keeping promises a challenge, but after you have shown yourself to be steadfast, your appreciation of the sanctity of vows will be cemented in your mind and soul.(Daily OM)
