If you don't understand why "you" are stuck

Dispite all your efforts and good will, you don't understand why sometimes things do not work the way you want. "You" feel stuck and no longer know what to do in order to improve the situation that displeases "you". The first wise attitude is to express gratitude to God.

You would ask, why?

Simply because "you" don't have a clue what's going on under the surface of things. Your whole life is like an iceberg. "You" can see only the top, not the big part of it. Only God holds the whole picture, and you cannot know more than Him. Therefore, say thank you to God, because everything is for your highest good.

Then you would ask, why in spite of knowing it, I don't achieve the relief and peace I seek, which are the only things I really need? Why then all this frustration, worry and anger in me?

You don't achieve the relief and peace you seek because of your identification with ego. In fact, it is not really you, feeling these negative emotions. It is your false self, or ego, that feels that way and makes you feel the same, due to your unconscious identification with it.  The purpose of ego, hidden in you, is to make you believe that it is you, and you are what it is; which of course, is  untrue.

But, is there a way out? Is it possible to suppress this identification and stop suffering?

Eckhart Tolle suggests to let all negative emotions and feelings be, and meet them without any judgement or resistance, until they fade away like smoke. Otherwise, resistance and suffering would get stronger and stronger, and compromise the relief and peace we seek.

On the other hand, teachings from a "Course in miracle" ask us to forgive everything, so that only love takes place in us. And through this forgiveness would we awaken from the dream of life and get back home to God, which means to achieve the relief and peace we long for.

It is essential for human being then to understand and know why he is here on this planet, in order to deal wisely with life. He must also know that everything life brings to us today, in this moment, is tied to something else in the past or our past lives.

That is, nothing happens to us by chance. And life does not unfold randomly. Everything, without exception,  is the consequence of our previous thoughts, feelings and actions. Call it karma ot whatever, the fact is that we pay the price or get the reward for whatever we have done in in the past. 

Forgiveness, for this reason, is of great importance here, as escape from the implacable laws that govern the universe is impossible. It is only when you have learned the lessons brought to you by life through all the forms it takes before us, that would you grow and evolve towards higher levels of consciousness.

God's omnipresence, omniscience and omnipotence as the key for living

Whenever you perceive a problem, a difficulty, or an obstacle in any situation, this is a perfect indicator that you are doing it wrong. That you are not going with the flow. But are swimming against the current. Also, that means you are not seeing, but just interpreting. Because real seeing is based on truth or reality, which in turn are the fruits of knowledge, while interpretion is an outcome of our limited physical senses.

Your interpretation of something is based on your unique limited point of view, depending on all your  past experiences and unconscious memories, your environment, your traditions, your culture, etc. All these parameters form the filter used by you, unconsciously, to interpret everything you perceive. That is, your conscious participation in this process is very weak, because of its automatic nature. In other words, most of the time it is taking place through you without  you knowing it, unless you become awake or conscious. 

Too become awake or conscious requires knowledge. The knowledge of Truth, or reality. Then, live according to it. But, what is truth? It is nothing else but God, which is the name that summerizes everything good; such as love, harmony, joy, happiness, kindness, abundance, wisdom, clarity, wholeness, oneness, kindness, peace, perfection, etc. 

As individuals, all of us we have our personal view about everything, that is different from one person to another, according to the perspective from which we are looking at the world; perspective strongly tied to our core values, which are byproducts of our past memories and experiences, as stated earlier.  

However, never will our personal perspective or point of view be true. Because it is too partial and, therefore, different and opposed to the whole. At the contrary, truth is wholeness, oneness and perfection. And, only perfection is, has always been, and will ever be, dispite the apparent turmoil of daily life.

What does that mean? Simply that nothing that you may perceive with your physical senses is as you see it. Because you perceive only from your partial perspective only. The fact is that you are blind, deaf and therefore, cannot really see.

For this reason, you cannot judge anything whatsoever. And because of that, the only thing you must do is giving whatever happens to God, Who holds the whole picture, and can see the truth for you. Taking into account God's omnipresence, omniscience and omnipotence, ask Him to see for you, to hear for you, to speak for you, to do for you and, above all, to judge for you. Step aside, and let Him do for you what you cannot do for yourself.

Also, as you cannot judge, so can you not do anything either. Because only God, the Almighty, can do everything. For this reason, your part is only to surrender. The condition that irritates you does so just because of the lack of depth in your thinking. You are too superficial and always stops on the surface of things.

But, in case you cannot stop judging the world around you, do it the right way. That is, knowing that because of His Omnipresence, only God is and nothing else, start seeing Him everywhere, in every man and woman, as well as in every circumstance. That way, you judge righteously, according to the truth.
