Om Namah Shivaya My mind is relaxed because of the understanding that everything is in order as it is.
Whatever is,
Wherever it is,
However it is,
Good,
Bad or indifferent,
It is all in order.
I may not necessarily understand how that is so because my knowledge is very limited.
I do not know the reasons of the past which has brought about the present.
I do not know how the present will result in the future and therefore it is possible.
There are many things that do not make sense to me.
There are many things which in my opinion may not be in order.
But I give benefit of doubt to the infinite wisdom which is what the order is.
This order which we call Ishvara is not an essential mechanical order.
It is not a mechanical law.
It is a conscious,
Live,
Intelligent reality.
Meaning that there is goodness behind even the apparent evil.
In that understanding I drop my resistance.
There is likely to be resistance in my mind,
Sometimes strong resistance towards what I consider disorder.
But I recognize that the resistance or even the rejection of what is,
Is more a result of my ignorance,
My inadequate knowledge,
My inadequate wisdom.
That is what brings about resistance or rejection of what is.
Whether it is a person,
A situation,
An event,
In my life or in the life of others.
The resistance in my mind,
The rejection,
The resentment,
The anger.
All of these are a result of my not being able to find an explanation.
And I tend to reject what my mind cannot explain.
But I should understand that this is a very complex world with many intricate orders and laws,
Mind boggling complexity.
And therefore I recognize that it is not possible for me to understand the reasons for everything.
And therefore humility is in order.
I become humble when I recognize the insignificance of my understanding with reference to the complexity of the universe.
And in all humility I accept the order,
Ishvara.
I let go of my resistance.
I let go of my insistence that I must find explanation for everything.
Even if I do not have explanation,
When I have humility,
Then I understand that there must be a reason for whatever is and a valid reason.
I may not know or understand those reasons.
But in the assurance that there are reasons,
I with all humility gracefully accept what is.
My acceptance remains an attitude of acceptance,
A state of mind which is free from resistance,
Free from rejection,
Free from resentment,
Free from blaming.
In graceful acceptance of what is,
The mind becomes quiet.
When there is no resistance,
When there is no rejection,
When there is no resentment,
When there is no anger,
Then the mind attains its natural state of peace and silence.
Peace,
Silence is a natural state of my mind.
That is how my mind truly is.
It is the resistance,
The rejection,
The anger arising from my ignorance and inadequacy.
They agitate my mind.
In all humility,
When I drop the resistance,
With the benefit of doubt to the infinite wisdom,
My mind is relaxed.
With graceful acceptance,
The mind is free from resistance and resentment,
Free from hurt.
And the mind is quiet,
Silent,
At peace with itself.
And peace is the nature of the mind,
Is nature of myself.
I am inherently a silent,
Peaceful,
Conscious being.
I see that fact about myself when my mind becomes silent.
When my mind is peaceful,
Then I can see this fact about myself that I am inherently a silent,
Peaceful,
Contented,
Conscious being.
Then I can see that I am a large-hearted person,
Able to accommodate everything.
Because the peace or silence has no boundaries.
Boundless peace is my nature.
I do not have to become peaceful.
I just have to let go of that which creates agitation in my mind.
When I let go of my insistence,
Of my expectations and demands,
Then the mind becomes silent.
In their silent state of mind,
I experience this fact that I am a silent,
Conscious being.
That is the core person I am.
Even when the mind may not be silent,
But the core person that I am,
The silent,
Peaceful,
Conscious being,
That is always there in the background.
And that is my true nature.
And I can see that in the boundless silence that I am,
There is no lack,
No want,
No need.
Free from lack,
Free from want,
Free from need,
Contented,
Self-sufficient,
Silent,
Conscious being I am.
This is an appointment with myself.
And I am with myself,
Or rather I am myself,
To remain what I am.
I am not a silent person.
I am not a silent person.
I am not a silent person.
I am not a silent person.

Without any effort.
An appointment with myself.
