Destination
To accept life in its totality, as it is, means to relax and let life take charge of you; then wherever it takes you, go with it. This is his most fundamental teaching of suchness, or thusness.
Such a man is always at peace. Whatever happens makes no problem for him; he simply goes with it with total willingness. Not only does he have no resistance, on the other hand he welcomes life in whatever form it comes. He welcomes death – even death cannot disturb him. There is nothing that can disturb him because he goes with everything, allows it...
He is just like a leaf dropping from the tree. If the wind takes it up, it goes up; if the wind takes it to the north, it goes to the north; if the wind takes it to the south, it goes to the south; if the wind drops it on the ground, it rests on the ground. It does not say to the wind, “This is very contradictory – you just started going north, and now you have started going south. I don’t want to go south – I am destined for the north.” No, the leaf has no destination of its own.
Existence has its own destination, and the man of meditation makes existence’s destination his own destination. He makes no separation at all. If existence feels it is time for death, then it is time for death. His ability to accept is total. Such a man cannot be in pain, in agony, in misery, in anguish – he has cut the very root of all these things.
