restlessness. Then he will walk around looking as if he just drank some castor oil!
Questioner: You just said, fall the wrong way, while throwing the dice. Why should one even harbor such expectation of a negative result?
Dadashri: Then what should you expect instead?
Questioner: Do not have any expecatations, whatever comes is correct.
Dadashri: It is good if your mind agrees to 'whatever dice falls right is correct' then it is a good thing. And when the mind is dissatisfied with the result, then you have to say, 'all of you fall the wrong way.' Then you will be content even when just two of the four fall the right way. So it all depends on the kind of mind you have.
Where there is no expecatation, there is no emotional agitation
If you make a deal on the phone with someone in Bombay and then two days later he changes his mind, you will experience emotional agitation udvega but the other person will not. Why should you be the one to experience emotional agitation udvega? You are in your dharma (keeping your side of the deal) and the other person is in adharma (doing wrong) by changing his mind. Why should you be agitated when you have done nothing wrong? A person may argue, 'But I lost the profit, did I not?' You fool! You have never had a profit, so why not let it go? Just believe that you never made a deal in the first place. But instead he becomes emotional agitation udvega and his wife will ask, "What happened? Why are you like this?' There is nothing but udvega, udvega, udvega, udvega!That which was supposed to flow down to calmness has gone up to emotional agitation. If the other person backed out after making the deal, what is the harm? Just believe that you had never made the deal in the first place. Instead, one gets trapped in udevega.
And what do people do? While sustaining one loss, they create two more. The Gnani Purush lets go of the one loss only.
Questioner: When one experiences emotional agitation udvega, is it not due to illusionary attachment moha?
