You cannot accept something that already is.

In that sense; acceptance is an illusion.

There is no such thing in actuality.

Everything is always and already totally 'accepted'. If it wasn't; it would not be (happening). 

Agreed.

@ivankiss thanks :) underlying all this sense of doing / not doing stuff, and even 'being on a spiritual path' is a belief in having free will too. If that's illusory, then any attempt at doing something like differentiating, accepting, resisting, is also illusory. But I don't want to derail this thread into yet another discussion on free will :(


Relax, it's just my loosely held opinion.  :)
