Power of Acceptance :-
My maid works in another house where another maid is also working. This maid washes the vessels in their house. She washes vessels in 3 other houses. Her husband is a driver in some call center. He does not have a fixed schedule to work. He comes home at different times. He calls her when she is working in some house. He expects her to be at home within few minutes as soon as he calls. She has to make hot food for him. The madam in those houses are scolding this maid for leaving the vessels in half and running to her house. If she does not go to the house on time, her husband is beating her. On top, her husband bought a two wheeler and asked her to pay the installments, as she is working. Now, she is struck, she could not quit the job and could not manage both. She was telling this to my maid. My maid suggested acceptance. She said, this is your situation. This is reality. Accept it. When he calls, why are you getting tensed? Just leave the vessels and tell the madam confidently that I have to leave. But I will come back and do the vessels for you for sure. At home, chop the vegetables in advance etc. Cook fresh and give. If this madam shouts after you leave, I will do the vessels for you. Don’t worry.
She felt nice and did the same thing. In two months time, the madam accepted her. In fact, one day the madam’s husband and son said, change this maid, she is most of the days leaving the vessel in half and going. The madam said, but she comes back and does. Her husband is beating her. That is why. She will come back and do. On the husband front, she said, it is two months since she has taken the beating. He suddenly told her, you don’t have to pay the installments of the two wheeler and I will pay. She feels very nice and she is asking my maid, tell me more about the gyan and teach me meditation, I will meditate.
Important Note :- She didn't fight with the madam. She didn't ask her husband to cook or help her in cooking or why can’t he cook and eat on his own or why can’t he eat precooked food and she is also working, is she not equal, why can't the husbands share the household work? only acceptance. In situations where there is no choice, acceptance is the solution. Acceptance brings equality and freedom.
