________________ 32 When worries go away it is called samadhi. After this you can do a lot more work efficiently than ever before because the entanglement is no longer there. As soon as you go to the office your work starts. There will be no thoughts about home, no other external thoughts bothering you. Therefore, you will give full concentration to the work at hand. Living in the present is the right thing A man, who has a three-year-old daughter as an only child, thinks about the expense of getting her married when she grows up. These kinds of worries are not to be done. When the time is right, all the evidences will come together for her. Until that time, do not worry. All you have to do is feed and educate her. Do not worry about what lies ahead. Only attend to the present time. The past is gone, so why do you dig into it? The past that is gone, not even a fool will dig into it. The future is in the hands of Vyavasthit so live in the present. If you are drinking a cup of tea, enjoy that tea because the future belongs in the hands of Vyavasthit. Why worry? Live in the present, while having a meal, concentrate on the food that is in front of you. Know the ingredients in the food you are eating. To be in the present means that when you are writing the accounts your full concentration is in it and accuracy is maintained. It is because the mind roams into the future that errors occur in your accounting. Those who live in the present do not make a single mistake and they have no worries. Dadashri : Worry cannot be a discharge. There is a doer in worry. The worries that were in the form of a charge (binding new karma) are now happening in the discharge form, and this we call suffocation. Discharge karma is not associated with suffering, because the Soul has separated from the ego. Worries occur when the two become one, as in the state prior to Self-realization. Now the suffocation is the result of the worry that was charged in the past life. Suffocation will occur during discharge. Just as anger in its charge form is called krodh(anger with ego) and in its result, effect, discharge form is called gusso( the ego less experience of anger). Ego is the reason for charge and when ego is absent it is called discharge. Therefore, after receiving this Gnan worries will not occur at all, it is just suffocation. One can recognize a face with worries. Whatever is happening to a person after Gnan is suffocation. When a map has been traced out for us and if we have made a mistake in reading it, we will be confused. That is not called worry it is called suffocation. So you do not have worry. Worries eat you up. Worries flee, when there is knowledge of 'Vyavasthit' Worry is not discharge of karma Questioner : If one understands Vyavasthit exactly, then worries or tension do not remain. Dadashri : None at all. Vyavasthit means scientific circumstantial evidence. One has to go on understanding Questioner: Is worry a discharge of previous karma?
