________________ You cannot take the meaning of vyavasthit by saying, 'don't worry. Whatever is going to happen, will happen'. You cannot say, 'Only that which is meant to happen, will happen'. That is a one-track viewpoint. That is misuse of vyavasthit. This mind, intellect buddhi etc., is ignorant by nature and, as long as there are inner opposers, You should remain alert. Questioner: We worry about the future, this is going to happen' or 'it would be nice if this were to happen'. At such times, can we say, 'Do not worry, whatever will be in vyavasthit, will happen'? Dadashri: There is no need to say, 'Whatever is in vyavasthit, will happen', because whatever 'is' is, and whatever 'is not' is not. So there is no need to think about that. What is not is not going to become 'is' and what 'is', is not going to become 'is not', so then you don't have to think about anything. Then you become suspicion-free in that matter. Besides, the future is under the control of vyavasthit. Is it under our control? There is no need to say that it will happen if it is in vyavasthit. But you can say, 'what 'is' is and what is 'is not' is not'. If your finger is going to get hurt, then it will happen if that 'is' the case and it will not happen if that 'is not. Therefore, if it ‘is not meant to happen, then it will not happen and if it does, then we do not have any objections. And even if the world raises objection, where will it go? You are not going to be able to change anything by thinking about it. So whatever 'is' is and that which is not is not. However, if someone who does not have this Gnan takes the wrong meaning of this, then he will do a great deal of damage. This information is for those who have this Gnan. Just as we accept the knowledge of the eternal elements that the Lord has said exists, and whatever he said is not there, we accept it as such, similarly here too, whatever there is, is. Do you worry about what you will do if you do not find a barber? Now if you do not find a barber for two or three months, do you have to worry about whether you will find one for the rest of your life to come? Is there a need to have such multiplications in this way, by worrying about what will happen if your hair keeps growing longer and longer?
