Om Swami
Why is everyone always worried, and what is the root cause of worry?
Two roots of worry: wanting and not wanting
Everyone, whether in robes, in normal clothes or digambar (sky-clad), carries some worry: the worry of holding on to their existence. Two root causes keep a person out of the present and unhappy: 'I want this' and 'I must not have that'.
There are only two root causes why a person cannot stay in the present and is constantly unhappy. The first is 'I want this, and I know it is right for me.' Everyone has the illusion that they know what they need.
