Ramesh, on intention

Can't remember if I've already posted this, but even if I have, it's good enough for a repost. More on my favourite theme of acceptance of the present moment.
In the absence of intention there can be no psychological basis for any involvement with activity and events or their outcome. There is then perfect alignment with whatever might happen, an acceptance of events without any feeling of either achievement or frustration.
