Unconditional Acceptance

Unconditional Acceptance (Choice-less Awareness) is one of the keys to lead a blissful life. But first of all we should know what it means.

About Thoughts:

• Thoughts keep on coming to our mind continuously (average 60,000 in a day)

•  Thoughts can be broadly categorized into Action thoughts and Non Action thoughts: 

• Action thoughts are those thoughts  which leads to some physical or body action   (5 to 10 %)

• Non Action thoughts are thoughts which do not lead to any action (95 to 90 %)

•  Initially every single thought is a Non Action thought which may or may not be converted into an Action thought.

How to accept a thought unconditionally:

Suppose you are stuck in a rut, confused or not able to take a decision or want to take the best decision. Do the exercise given below to get a clear Action Thought.

• Accept Favorable Condition

• Drop Favorable Condition

• Accept Unfavorable Condition

• Drop Unfavorable Condition

• Accept Favorable Person

• Drop Favorable Person

• Accept Unfavorable Person

• Drop Unfavorable Person

• Accept your body

• Accept your mind

• Accept your soul  

• Drop that you are accepting

• Take a deep breath and let go

Once this is done, our mind becomes empty and relaxed. The thought which comes after the above exercise will be the best Action thought. Unconditional Acceptance also helps to let-go those thoughts, events or person which is not in our control.

Question: Does acceptance mean to agree to everything which is wrong, bad, negative or unethical?

Answer: No. Unconditional Acceptance only helps us to be in the present by accepting (right or wrong, good or bad, positive or negative) everything as it is. Once we reach the present (now) relaxed state, we get connected with the existence.The action thought or decision following will be the best. 

Wisdom Pointer: 

• If we can accept each of our thoughts unconditionally, we will always be blissful. 
• Resistance leads to Persistence. Acceptance leads to disappearance.. ParamAnandBliss.
