Our life is governed by our expectations which are nothing but memories/imagination…
Desires are memories or dreams of pleasure
Fear is the memory or imagination of pain
Both are unreal
To see both in the same light as mere urges and doing what is necessary regardless of whether it is painful or pleasurable is the objective of a Yogi
This is possible when you realise the truth of your existence and automatically all “expectations” of seeking pleasure/avoiding pain drop.
The truth of your existence could be discovered in silence, meditation, reflection or as a flash whilst working. One interesting description provided by the famous song of film “Guide” written by Shailendra Singh and sung by SD Burman – “Wahan Kaun hai tera”, provides a perspective of the truth to be reflected upon
