In the same way, we have to know that there are many things
in life, which are beyond our control. If a person thinks, “I can control
everything in every situation throughout my life”, the mind of such a person
will be literally torn to pieces. An intelligent person knows that god is the
supreme controller and that he is controlling everything that is happening
throughout the world as well as his own life. Such a person, who sees with the
eyes of knowledge, can understand that he is bound from head to toe by the laws
of nature. When we ourselves are so completely controlled how then can we
expect to control every situation, or for that matter, any situation?
Therefore, though there may be hundreds of inconveniences, annoyances and
irritations from the moment we wake up every morning to the moment we sleep at
night (and even when we are asleep); we have to understand that they are not within
our power to change. So we should learn to tolerate them without being
disturbed.
