1) Don't fight the choiceless situation, accept it, and strengthen your inner-self and emotions, have faith, this shall too pass, when you go out in the rain, you don't fight the rain, you carry an umbrella to pass the choiceless situation which rain poses to you!

10 Sanyasa is not leaving everything and going to the woods, it is a mental state, in which I relinquish the idea of ownership with regard to everything I use, I look upon everything I possess as only things that I use but I do not own anything, there is one owner of everything and that is Bhagwan!
