BE DETERMINED TO BE HIS

Eruch Jessawala

 
So much of what I have to tell you all is just plain common sense. You people make such a mystery of it, but it's all really quite simple. You analyze everything and have so many questions:

"What should I do in this situation?"

"What about this situation?"

"But if someone does this, then what should I do?"

You make it all so complicated.

That's why I always tell everyone who asks, "First and foremost, just be determined to be His. Then everything else falls into place." Once you are determined to be His, you will only do those things which won't prevent you from being His.

You don't have to analyze every single situation you find yourself in and try to determine what Baba wants you to do. You'll go crazy that way; just determine to be His and that determination will provide you with the answers you need. In a very natural way. It's not some complicated exam, with trick questions that you have to study and cram for. It's a question of just doing what naturally seems to be the right thing to do.
