Here’s the formula – when life flows, we experience peace, when it is blocked we experience pain.
We get tripped up when we identify more with our thoughts or a particular situation than with our essence. Our fundamental purpose is to be a vessel for life. When we’re fulfilling our function, we experience inner peace and a sense of well-being.
Over time, this feeling of well-being or the flow of life becomes the foundation for our identity, and we make decisions that promote the flow – regardless if it shakes things up a bit.
Life will lead if you let it. Put life in charge. The mind needs to be disciplined so that it doesn’t act like a spoiled child. The body is a vessel – not a god. Our emotions are just that – energy in motion, they flow on the current of life and will not kill us – they just need to dissipate.
Once we put life in charge, the rest of our being and our world falls into divine order and inner peace ensues.
