Question
How can one accept the present moment when the mind does not want to accept a present moment?
Sri Prabhuji
Present moment is only reality. Past and future are unreal. Present moment what is manifest is nothing but our past creation (karma). We cannot run away from present moment reality. Accepting present moment reality is owning up our own karmic impressions. Owning up our own karmic impressions empowers us. Resisting present moment causes immense suffering when mind dwells in unreality of past or future trying to escape. Accepting present moment is also called surrender. In surrender there is peace in resistance of present moment there is stress. Surrender does not mean becoming docile or succumbing to circumstances. It only means right action with calm mind free from agitation.
