To Remove Anxiety

The biggest source to hinder human happiness is "anxiety", I guess. Today is the age of anxiety. Rather humans has been living with anxiety from once upon a time. Thinking of it, it is only humans that have anxiety. Neither animals and plants have anxiety. Now at this moment they are living with no hesitation. So they are happy. Without thinking of future, they can live a happy life because God feed them. Although they don't know God feed them, they live as if they knew it, consequently they stand on the same position in a true faith.

"Live without hesitation."

That's bliss.
By the way, why do humans think about future so much? Yet in vain. Whenever I remember my life, I feel that

"Life is beyond our plan."

Don't you think so? At least I do. No plan can be carried out so far, as for me. Ha,ha,ha! I just can't but laugh. "Within expectation" someone said and it prevailed at one time but  upon him who said it a thing beyond expectation has happened.

"Life is beyond expectation."

If it's so, it is no use thinking about future so much. For it is just beyond expectation. Thinking of it, all human history is a series of unexpectedness. We can't stop war and conflict all the time. However, come what may, one can live fairy well, indeed. If unexpected thing may happen, it doesn't mean we can no longer live. That Mr."within expectation" seems to be fine even now. So don't think about future so much. No worry about future, no anxiety. No anxiety, happy a life is.

Then what can we do to remove anxiety? Is it possible?

Believe in God.
Believe in Buddha.

This is why religion exists. Because of little more intelligence than the other animals, humans are apt to worry about unpredictable future and are suffered from anxiety. God had pity on such humans, and gave them religion. To remove anxiety and live a happy life as they used to be. As living things has alway been living a happy life from the ancient time when life was first born. When life was born for the first time, death also existed, but nothing except humans has worried about future so often and fear death as saying "I'm going to die someday." Death is a moment, until then life all the time. If we live without hesitation and anxiety during our life, life is happy. Leave all future to God. Blame everything on Buddha and just entrust tomorrow to God. Surrender ourselves to God. Depend on Buddha. And anxiety will disappear, otherwise, anxiety will last forever. Don't be afraid. If we live steadily day by day, God provides necessity, food for dairy life. And we come to see what to do today if we surrender our tomorrow, all future to God. When we surrender ourselves to God completely, God will show us what to do. Besides, God is more gracious than anything else, so He will provide the way which is not too hard for us to take. Heavy burden will God shoulder.

Here we come again to belief. If we don't get it, anxiety never disappears and true happiness can never be. Aside from such a merrily guy like me, the trouble is how you get belief, what the best way that fits these days is. It is the very problem and hope that Amiyan is concerned with.
