TOUGH TIMES ARE FOR HARVESTING WISDOM
When life is viewed as real then it makes no sense given the suffering, injustice, disease, sorrow and heartache, but when life is viewed as an illusion then it makes perfect sense. Viewing life as an illusion helps to recreate every moment as we choose it to be. Deciding to be in the place of trust and patience brings peace to every situation. This Planet is a stage set up to harmonize the mind. The mind and its stories arising from judgment is the root cause of all suffering. Reflecting on the stories of the mind and questioning its truth creates space for wisdom. No one is immune to trials and tribulations in life, trials are placed in life for a reason. Unless we choose to face our fears, we will not be able see the bigger picture from the place of understanding and harvest wisdom from these experiences. Making peace and blessing the conditions of our life we change them completely, for we are calling them something other than what they appear to be. Every so called "trial" is an opportunity to encourage greater visions and thereby create grander solutions. For, there is immense courage, strength, and love placed within every human heart to transform every trial.
I am reminded of this poem "Along the Road" by Robert Browning Hamilton .
I walked a mile with Pleasure
She chattered all the way
But left me none the wiser,
For all she had to say,
I walked a mile with Sorrow
And never a word said she
But oh! The things I learned from her,
When Sorrow walked with me!
Let us choose to awaken to the truth of who we are and let us choose to view life from the place of understanding. May we awaken to our Divinity within!
Blessings!
