he means that he too is your friend -- you have mistaken him for an enemy.
This whole life is yours. It belongs to you... you belong to it. This feeling of belonging is trust... that you are not alone, that you are together with these trees and the stars and the moon and the sun... that everything that exists is part of you and you part of it -- this is what I call trust.

Not that you replace it by a belief.... Just looking deeply into the doubt you find that it was futile, it was unbased; there was no foundation to it. Suddenly it is gone, and that which is left is trust.

That is the meaning of sannyas -- that you disown the
