I have been thinking about this exactly this subject the past few days. Coincidentally I spent the weekend at a tribal interaction center which is setup by a follower of Swami Vivekananda, and just this morning, I saw a link on a friends FB page that was part of a speech Swami Vivekananda made in Chicago at the turn of last century.
Today I received this in my inbox as an answer to the questions I've been asking myself. Fortunately, it came when I was about to do something that would be very hurtful to someone I love. am going to attempt to put aside expectation this time and next time and the next... constant consciousness is the only way it will work. I thank you for bringing this to me today!
