Welcome to the Program Your Destiny course. In this course, we will be learning the technology of personal transformation, neuroassociative conditioning (NAC) as pioneered by Tony Robbins. NAC is used to deprogram negative neuroassociations that are causing approach avoidance and instead reprogram yourself with positive neuroassociations that lead to being approach automatic. In doing so, you change your destiny, moving towards unlocking the hypersocial self within, the true self free from fear and operating from a place of personal power and love.

28. Sum-Up
• UNESCO has described Pattadakal as "a harmonious blend of
architectural forms from northern and southern India" and an
illustration of "eclectic art" at its height.
• The temples of early Chalukyas are symbolic inclination towards
integration, and experimentation, resulting in a merging of the
Northern and Southern Indian architectural styles. Hindu/
bramhanical and Jain tradition
• various Vedic and Puranic concepts, depict stories from
the Ramayana, the Mahabharata, the Bhagavata Purana, as well
as elements of other Hindu texts, such as the Panchatantra and
the Kirātārjunīya
• Aihole became a locus of scholarship. The experimentations in
architecture extended into Badami over the course of the next two
centuries. This culture of learning encompassed Pattadakal in the
7th century which became a nexus where ideas from northern and
southern India fused.
