When will I accept
When will I accept myself as is
when will I accept I can do many things I fear, for I have seen
when will I accept that I am only here and now
when will I accpet that I can be at peace
when will I accept that I dont have to change the whole world now
when will I accept my diet the way it is
when will I accept that I can enjoy myself
when will I accept that I can talk to many people
when will I accept that doing many things take little
effort and an even smaller decistion
when will I accept I need not resist
when will I accept that I need not figure it all out
when will I accept that I dont know what the next line
of this will be
when will I accept the equality of others
when will I accept That i need not beat myself up
when will I accept my imprefection
when will I accept that, thats fine
when will I accept myself as is |

"When there's no more 'myself'".
My answer is the only possible "what".
And your answer, Miguel, is the only possible "when" (the "when" that the "what" can happen).
And so, I'd say the one complete answer to those questions (and all such questions) is:
"Now, when there's no more myself."
Consider: "myself" is never happening now.
"Myself" is a memory, or a slice of memory-fueled imagination ... and if there seems to be a myself right now ... this can only be an after-image of past memory; a ghost, an artifact.
Now, there is no "myself".
Now .... there's only now.
Cool.

What can be accepted can also be rejected. Acceptance and rejection are a game of the mind.
Its a never ending game.
You don't need to accept or reject who you are.
Be still, know! |

Yes Kirtanman,good and agree!
Acceptance is so close to who we really are now (eternal present moment). Acceptance is like a flower that blossoms naturally and spontaneously along the way.
Im perfect now.The mind creates the ilusion and suffering.
