Today we're talking about things are not as they appear.
Things are not as they appear.
We walk in mystery.
Whatever you think is certain most certainly isn't.
Let go of thinking you are creating or controlling everything and join the dance.
Don't worry about what others think or say.
There are lots of forces at work.
The universe is not a linear system.
The magic is in the unfolding of the mystery,
The universe.
Things are not as they appear and so by this we mean that whatever your mind is telling you may or may not be correct.
There is a deeper truth in our reality,
The soul truth,
The way of the universe and this is the thread to be followed.
I find this especially interesting again I'm recording this during the COVID virus,
The great shutdown.
Things are not as they appear.
Interesting.
I don't have any great ideas of what things are really except for I do know that it's interesting that we've all been,
We've all been forced to retreat.
We've all been forced to become,
To go into hermitage.
We've all been forced to slow down.
We've all been forced to really let go of all of our distractions and for a lot of people a lot of habits have changed.
You know maybe you always went down to the bar or a pub and now you can't do that.
Maybe you always went to the gym and now you can't do that.
Maybe you always went to yoga.
Maybe you were always in you know a group on a sports team or maybe you worked a lot and you always were working and now you can't and so it's very interesting to see this great disruption.
Remember that synchronicities are always disruptions that help us pay attention and this is a this is a big synchronicity what we're going through.
Things are not as they appear.
What if the universe just needed to put us all in a big timeout?
What if the universe just needed to slow us down for a while?
There are lots of forces at work.
The magic is in the unfolding of the mystery.
I find that when I am confused about what's going on which is you know kind of a lot.
I'm guessing you guys are probably confused too or maybe I'm the only one who knows but really the place to go is into meditation or the place to go is in prayer and we enter into divine space.
We connect with our soul to the collective soul that is God that is the universe and we we suddenly become informed of the mystery.
The mystery becomes known to us.
We have this deep knowing or this direct knowing of how things really are.
I know that right at this particular moment in this moment of nowness right this second I am recording this teaching and you are whenever whatever time frame it's in you are listening to this teaching.
I am in a room it's just a little room in my house.
Got my laptop.
I've got a microphone.
The house is quiet and you are wherever you are.
Maybe you're you're listening with headphones on your phone or maybe you're out for a walk listening or maybe you're listening while you're doing something on your computer.
I don't know but the idea of paying attention to two things.
One what happens when you meditate how is the mystery known to you then and what happens when you're in absolute present now moment so that all anxiety and worry all plans all control falls away you're just here in this moment right now and we're in the mystery.
We're just letting it unfold.
Everything's unfolding becoming more clear.
We walk in mystery in every moment of our life.
We can connect to source and have a deeper understanding and we can be in now moment and just let things unfold from there.
