When Ifirst read this I was not a little disquieted. Then I got it: of course, in the illusion – if you believe it – you’re in it!

“Whatever your karma is, is going to happen, no matter what you do. So why concern yourself ?
See whatever you’re going to do, you will
not be able to stop.
“The way to see it is like this. Let your body do whatever it has to do. Do not think about it too much. Do not identify with it. Do not attach yourself to it. Everything was preordained before you came into existence. It will take care of itself. The apples grow, the grass grows, the sun shines, there’s warmth to make human life exist, there is a power that takes care of everything and it has nothing to do with our thoughts.”
