Now trust my words: 'you are not the doer'. Life is 'happening' on this planet. Everything is moving. Your mind is going through ups and downs, sorrows and joys. It has its own ways, its own time.
There's only one way you can be happy seeing that you are not the doer; that everything is just happening.
Let it happen. Thinking you are the doer agitates you further, and you become much more restless. Not to do, to undo, is another doing. The desire to do something to get out of it is another 'doing.' It's something like a pond being muddy. You know this, but then start stirring it more. And if you keep stirring, it is bound to become muddier. There is no way it can settle down. When you can feel 'I am not the doer, when this confidence, this faith dawns on you, that is nectar. With that, you will become happy.
There is no need to be unhappy or sad about your body, and the things happening in your mind, about people, situations, events and circumstances around you. Then, what can you be unhappy about? Can you be? Is there any other thing to be unhappy about? Is it? Sukhi bhava! It is an order as well as a blessing.
Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankarji
