How does one accept and digest things? It is very simple. Reality exists as it is. Whether you accept it or not, it does not change. So why do you suffer? Just accept it, and then find protection. Accept the cold weather, and protect yourself with warm clothes. Accept the hot weather, and protect yourself with a fan or air conditioner. For us, the best protection is the name of God, our mantra. I poštovanja. We worship, we believe, we respect, we adore. If you have these feelings, then all problems will go away. And if you do not have these feelings, problems can always be there. Sooner or later, there is disappointment. And then, why should we get attached to things? Attachment is a cause of disappointment. Expectation leads to disappointment. Therefore, when you begin some attachment, then parallel to the attachment, disappointment is developing. Sooner or later, that disappointment will take over. If not through some actions, then through nature: we love our dear ones. Our dear ones—our parents, our children, our friends, partners—may never intentionally disappoint us. But one day, through death, there will be separation. That pain of death, the separation, is another form of disappointment. Then we begin to blame ourselves: "I could have done this better; I could have done that better." Therefore, we should always take these words of Gandhījī; they are a lifelong guidance: "Be the change you want to see." Therefore, Jesus said, "Don’t carry, don’t have, believe in your destiny." Destiny is the product of our deeds, our karma. The result, the fruits of the karma, is the destiny. In your destiny, something is there that no one can take away. Anyone can take something from your hands, but not from your destiny.
