We are essentially unhappy because we fuddle the completeness and the part. When we don’t see a situation in its whole, we simply embrace self-destructive propensity.
Take instance, take that dreadful sinking feel; when, after getting angry, we discover, all too late, that things weren’t quite as bad as imagined and it was we who misjudged or misunderstood a particular person or situation. Once we see the situation as a whole, we can assume we were wrong to be angry, upset, anxious or afraid.
How frequent have we rashed up without thought and then remorsed over our actions after the events, when we fully understood the situation? So it is important to fully understand the matter in question. Believe Maria Duval, there is an explanation for everything. Nothing that happens to you, and nothing that you cause to happen, is inexplicable.
Allow light to flow through you rather than fear. It’s your decision. Isn’t it over-the-top to realise you can always prefer what is good for you? All you need to realize that nothing can change until you understand that your bad luck is not dependent on events, but creates them.
We tend to think that events which are either favored or inauspicious, good or bad occur. In other words, our feelings reflect what happens from one moment to the next. That is why, at this level, when we are unhappy, our first reflex is to want to change the circumstances we believe to be responsible for our sadness. We believe that changing the context in which we are suffering will put an end to that suffering.
This has never been and never will be the case, since it is not the event that makes us unhappy, it is our reaction to the event. What is more, you can free yourself from this insufferable task, this incredible self-punishment which consists of believing that you are responsible for the destiny of the entire universe.
Finally, the only universe for which you are accountable is your personal inner world which is the universe of your thoughts, feelings, emotions and desires. Your spiritual development depends on your ability to vision clearly inside this universe. And it is this new vision that supports the key to your safeguard. It is the foundation of your future victories since when you are aware of the potholes, your travel through life will be straightforward and happy.
