![“How much happens due to our own doing? It is only the plan that gets designed, and that too, not by us alone, it is as an evidence in the process. At the time when the work [effect] happens, we are not the evidentiary doer. The work [effect] continues to happen naturally.” quote by Dada Bhagwan](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/352/dada-bhagwan-31_circumstances_how-much-happens-due-to-our-own-doing-it_2637000.jpg)
