'You' is self-sufficient

Can you come to the point that ‘you’ is self-sufficient?
Secret is – whatever you do (or not do) is right.
It may bring pain or pleasure, winning or losing and so on. At the point of action –you have no way of knowing, no way of being sure what the outcome would be.
Desire, comfort to have confirmation as to ‘what is right action’ binds one to compulsion, sluggishness.
One wants to do away with the fear of going wrong, the fear of committing errors.
Mind is under the illusion that it may make some wrong choices.
One fears one may go wrong.
This fear can not be dealt with, undone or escaped.
Now any action is relaxed and conscious.
Choice comes before us as something painful-what would be the right choice.
If one can bear this pain because no choice seems to be flawless and one can not know the result of exercising choice before hand-one comes in a fluid state.
One tastes freedom. Whatever choice emerges is the right choice.
It is only when the ‘idea’ of God, Awareness, liberation, Enlightenment or about any controlling power drops from your mind that the whole energy is concentrated. You are unable to escape your pain (any discomforting feeling) and uncertainty through ANY ‘ideation or by complaining, blaming, feeling guilty. The self-sustained ground is realized.
