Are “Problems” really problems?

October 1, 1987

If you face it directly then you’ll be amazed, there’s no problem for anything. Say your car fails. So it fails, get down, enjoy your self nicely till somebody comes along, takes you. Or, if supposing you don’t get some lift, all right, stay there overnight. What is it? No tiger is going to eat you. And if the tiger has to eat you, it will eat. Where is the problem? Still I can’t see. I can’t see the problem. If tiger has to eat, that’s already destined that the tiger has to eat. In any case, nobody dies. You’ll be born again. If you look at it from that angle then you’ll be surprised, most of the problems do not exist. They are like bubbles created by our own thinking, the waves of our thinking, This is the problem. That is the problem. Like today, they said there is no hall on such and such date. All right.

Where are you having the hall?
There.
If there’s no hall, let us have it in the open.

So to make the best of it is, is the way Shri Rama shows you.
