Wouldn't it be more correct to write "accept the consequence of one's actions without attaching to those"? Or something like that. it seems that remaining indifferent to the stream, going along with it and following it, is the path. But is it?

A profound question. Acceptance isn’t indifference—it’s engagement without clinging. The stream flows, but it doesn’t mean we are swept aimlessly. True surrender is active: we align with the flow while staying rooted in wisdom, making choices that harmonize with it.

I see what you mean. Fighting the current shows strength, but flowing with it shows wisdom. The tiger and strawberry remind us: even in the midst of struggle, there’s space for presence and sweetness. Effort and acceptance—both have their place in the path. Perhaps balance is the practice?
