How do you resolve Destiny verses Action ?

by Narinder Bhandari

 

"Action and Destiny ! A practical approach to adopt

as 'understanding ' for a day to day Living would be: At any point of

time, consider all that you may have gone through in life as Destiny;

and whatever Existence presents as the situation in This Moment Now,

is your action. This would enable you to 'de-involve' from your past

(regrets, guilt etc.), and hence tackle the situation of the Moment

more objectively.

 

And no sooner is your action of the Moment over, the 'Now' has also

slipped into the Past! And the past? It was all ordained ... it was

destined ....... was your Destiny ! And so ..... your action... your

doing was ..... is.... only an illusion....

 

Also, some day, this will enable you to move into the ultimate wisdom

that All that happens is the Existence's doing... Existence's

writ.... and, you, as an integral part of the Existence only carry

out Existence's writ. You are not other than Existence ! Thus are you

freed from 'Doing', and move into 'not-doing '.... wherein all just

happens, as it must."
