Gurudev Sri Sri - I said to leave all your problems here, but do not leave your family members who are troubling you (Laughter). Once it so happened, I said the same thing in the Ashram, 'Leave all your problems here.' One lady said, 'My mother-in-law is my biggest problem, so can I leave her here?' I said, 'Let me ask your mother-in-law, she will say the same thing about you.' See, challenges are there in life. Challenges come, people with different mindsets come, but when you expand your vision and see your life from a broader perspective, you will let go of all these small little issues that seem to be so significant to you right now. You have to broaden your vision. If you find some people are negative, keep them at a distance that is number one.
The second thing is, know that they will not be like that forever. With time, they will change. And the third option is to think, 'Okay, let them be. They are going to bring out better skills from within me.' They bring out greater skills of communication, skills of being positive in your foothold. The last thing is to leave it to the Almighty. Leave it to Divinity to resolve. We sing this in Mahatma Gandhiji's favourite song, 'Ishwar Allah Tero Naam, Sabko Sanmati De Bhagwaan' - Let everyone's mind and intellect be pure and be channelled in the right direction. This is what is in the Gayatri Mantra also, 'Dhiyo Yo Nah Prachodayat' - Let the Divine inspire my intellect. Let my intellect not come up with the small and silly little ideas, and thoughts. Let this intellect reflect the will of God, of the Almighty. The Gayatri Mantra is one of the most beautiful mantras that human society has ever gotten which also says the same thing: Let the Divine will reflect in my will and thoughts, intellect. Let my intellect be aligned with the Divinity.
