People think that it is more efficient to do two tasks together. That is foolishness! Doing two tasks at a time is not efficiency; it is a deficiency. It leaves you unprepared to cope. Be clear: the moment you feel stressed it indicates only one thing you are not living totally. If you live this moment, you will never be afraid of other moments that will unfold during the day or in your life in the day or your life. Stress is nothing but psychological fear.

Pure psychological terror is stress. Look at how your life is now. As you do a task, your mind is continuously being boggled, burnt, worried, and anxious about the next moment. What to do? What to do next? What to do after this? And you think you are multitasking! You mark these key words as a golden sutra technique for your life. 99% of your worries never come true. The 1% that comes true is always for your own good! This statement is actually true. 99% of your fears and worries never come true. 99% of your stress is simply psychological terror.

You feel good if your enemy is too big, and bored if your enemy is too small. So, you know how to create stress. It is just a knack, an ability. Be clear: when you decide to put your awareness on your mind, naturally you will understand how much stress you create on yourself. With awareness, all the stress will be healed. All the problems will be cleared. However if you have been in pain and ignored it, then the pain body will be too big. If you put your awareness on your self, the pain body has to die. The pain body also wants to exist. It wants to protect its existence. It wants to survive. To remain alive, the pain body never allows you to put your awareness on it. Try this. Turn your awareness on the stress. Look into it as deeply as possible. What is the source of this stress actually? When you trace its source, it will simply disappear!

Search throughout your body and mind with awareness. Whenever you get into a somber mood, whenever you get tired, whenever you get irritated, whenever you get angry, whenever you get the urge to shout at others, whenever you feel a headache, whenever you feel like giving headache to others, watch it.

Turn on your awareness. You will see that pain, fear, or stress melts like ice under the sun. Then, you can multitask in the real sense. What do I mean by 'real sense'? You can multitask with complete totality every moment. It will be efficient multitasking. Then it cannot even be called multitasking in your sense. It can be called simply 'living in the present completely'. When you live completely in the present, you become capable of doing many things at a time with complete totality every minute. This is what all great masters do in their fully enlightened state.
