Non-acceptance

Eckhart Tolle says
"See if you can catch yourself complaining in either speech or thought, about a situation you find yourself in, what other people do or say, your surroundings, your life situation, even the weather. To complain is always nonacceptance of what is. It invariably carries an unconscious negative charge. When you complain, you make yourself a victim. Leave the situation or accept it. All else is madness"

"Sraddha and Bhakthi"

From Partha's blog . Found it a perfect defintion of the attitude with which we ought to lead our lives.

Sraddha* without bhakthi** is arrogance, while bhakthi without sraddha is laziness!

*By Sraddha, I mean an attitude of total commitment to all future events and activities. A state of mind where one is determined to give ones best for what is to come.

** By Bhakthi, I mean an attitude of total acceptance to everything that has happened and is happening. A state of mind that offers absolutely no resistance to what happens. Even better, a state of mind that welcomes gleefully everything that happens, even if it is diametrically opposite to what we were trying to accomplish with sraddha!
