Make no effort either to work or to give up work
(remain relaxed in awareness); your very effort
(straining) is the bondage. What is destined to
happen will happen. Leave it to the Higher
Power; you cannot renounce or retain as you
choose. The feeling "I work" is the hindrance.
Ask yourself "Who works?" Remember who you
are (remain aware of your awareness). Then the
work will not bind you; it will proceed
automatically.
Sri Ramana Maharshi
Blessing must arise from within your own mind. It is not something that comes from outside. When the positive qualities of your mind increase and the negativities decrease, that is what blessing means. The Tibetan word for blessing … means transforming into magnificent potential. Therefore, blessing refers to the development of virtuous qualities you did not previously have and the improvement of those good qualities you have already developed. ― Dalai Lama XIV
