My name is Sangeet,
And today I am here to tell you something important.
We want so many things in life,
And so we dream,
We imagine,
We ask,
We wonder,
We beg,
We wish and pray,
We receive,
And we still want more,
Because that is our nature.
We are infinite constant creators.
This zest for life is so beautiful that has all the right to be appreciated and valued for what truly is an immense blessing of powerful energy capable of all sorts of manifestations,
Even what we consider miracles.
Although this force is always with us,
We may experience different phases that require different types of energy.
Sometimes we just need to rest,
To heal,
Or to pause.
Sometimes we may need to stop and to step back.
Sometimes nothing seems to go in our favor,
We can't even see any glimpse of what we want to see unfolding in our reality,
And we don't like it,
Right?
But let me tell you,
There is something of special in all of this,
There is,
And here is why.
We tend to depreciate what seems wrong,
Or bad,
Or stagnant,
Or difficult.
We tend to dislike everything that doesn't give us an instant gratification,
Everything that requires time or effort.
We tend to want things right here,
Right now,
And we find it hard to drop or to let go.
But let's distance ourselves from all of this.
Let's create enough space between us and whatever process is happening in our lives.
Let's see in between,
Let's see underneath,
Let's see beyond.
Let's pay attention to the entire picture,
To the full process.
Let's do this until our perspective changes,
To the point that we finally breathe and relax What we intend by manifestations is so little compared to everything that is.
We think that manifestations are just the things that we want so badly,
Such as the house or the job,
But manifestations include everything.
From the dream that we dream asleep,
To the dream that we dream awake,
The thoughts that we think,
The words that we say,
The steps that we take.
We say that our manifestations are not happening,
But manifestation is all that shows up in this planet,
Everywhere,
All the time.
We are constantly manifesting,
Even in those phases that we feel that nothing is happening.
We think that sleeping,
Resting,
Hearing,
Cleaning,
Breathing is nothing.
It doesn't count,
But it does.
Everything counts.
Every moment matters.
The moment that precedes our so-wished manifestation is as important and beautiful as the moment in which it happens.
Before,
During,
After,
Every moment is crucial and it fits perfectly,
Because the universal forces are constantly aligning for us.
Even if we get lost for a while,
Even if we don't even believe in any God or Creator,
Even if we don't think about it,
It is here and it is happening.
Imagine a scene of a movie in which you see how beautifully the life of the main character unfolds.
They don't know what is about to happen,
But you,
The observer,
You can see the full puzzle.
Sometimes,
You can even see the entire future straight from the start,
Right?
But you still watch the entire movie,
Enjoying every moment,
Looking forward to see and to know more,
Feeling all the emotions in between.
Now,
Imagine that you would delete all the scenes except the one in which the main character gets the dream job or the dream partner.
It could be pleasant somehow,
But would it be substantial enough?
Would you feel excited and happy and truly fulfilled?
Probably not,
Because you wouldn't even know the character.
You wouldn't have given yourself the chance to get to know them,
To feel their life,
To know their struggles and adventures,
To know their story and to understand why things were happening the way they were.
Now,
Imagine that you are the main character.
Would you want to come to this planet to experience only one scene in which you buy the house or in which you meet your partner?
Five seconds later and you would be gone,
No more experiences to live,
And by the way,
No full excitement or understanding of those particular scenes at all.
How boring and disconnected.
We came to this planet to fully experience,
To fully live,
To fully be happy,
Not just when we meet someone,
Not just when we have the money,
Not just when we travel the world.
We came to show ourselves how joyful we still can be,
Even when we struggle,
And how powerful we are to the point of turning something bad into something amazing.
We came here to thrive through the acceptance of everything that is,
As it is.
We didn't come here to erase the moon or the sun,
Or to erase the clouds or the storms.
We came here to leave it all.
Erasing our struggles is not the answer,
Because that is an energy of resistance.
We focus on the struggles,
They expand.
It is like cleaning the house,
Thinking of how dirty it is.
Instead,
We clean the house,
Thinking of how great it is to have it clean.
You see the difference?
We don't erase the rain,
We laugh and play under it,
And we prepare and get excited to see the sun again.
And when the sun comes and asks us,
How have we been,
Instead of answering,
I have been depressed all along and I am so desperate to see you,
We answer,
I have been having a great time and I am so happy to see you.
So today,
Let's look for ways to thrive.
Even if the difficulties are strong,
There is always something that we can choose to say,
To think,
To do,
That turns the bad into something better.
And when it gets really,
Really hard,
We can always escape through our dreams and imagination that one magical place that is capable of miraculously changing everything.
