Planes falling down, knife attacks, bombs, suicidal cars… We are, more than ever, living in a world of uncertainty. Just going out to take a coffee, to watch a movie or traveling for holidays can be fatal. Our medias love to dwell on this and spend days covering the atrocity of the event, sharing each details that could make us even more fearful and untrusting of life and-or of any divinity.
The last main event which occurred a few weeks ago is a plane crashing in Brazil, the crash being recorded. No survivors. Since then videos of people getting on this plane are circulating and even the last screams of the passengers… There is no more decency and respect for the families and the deceased ones.
These events not only strongly remind us of our mortality but also of the randomness of life. Why these people, this plane and not another one ? Also are circulating on the net testimonials of people who missed the plane… Fate.
Being reminded of all this and living the drama almost live we feel as if it was happening to a close family member or even to us and thus it creates a huge lack of trust and fear in each one of us. How can we trust Life when it betrays us like that ?! Innocent ones living a normal life being hit by fate without any free will or knowing. We see life as dangerous and atrocious.
With this strong inclination digging a big hole under our feet the first tendency is to stop trusting the Divine, Life and to rely only on the medias and the safety our societies pretend to create for us. We become like headless chickens wandering randomly in our with absolutely nothing to hang on except an illusion of security contributing to our disconnection from the Divine.
So the message we daily receive is “be careful ! “Horrible things can happen to you at each moment with no possibility at all to predict them. But our societies also send the message that they can help us by putting even more security processes, and tightening more and more our freedoms. Our societies, the media are telling us : life is impredictable and unfair but we can help you and make you feel safe. Knowing it is not true.
Because Life still happens and what is meant to be will be…
So how to deal emotionally with all this ? How to find our ways and not become headless chickens ?
First we are invited to accept what Is. The truth, rudeness of reality. Reality can be harsh but can also be beautiful. Yin and Yang. This is real as the Sun rising each day. We cannot stop the Sun from rising each day. But we can learn how it works with us, creating a personal relationship with this element.
Accepting what is helps release the fear. Accepting Life as it is is, completely surrendering to what is. Letting go and letting God.
Yes God, Life is unpredictable but instead of living this reality as hell we can accept the “rules of the game” and let ourselves dive into the flow, with no resistance.
The more we resist to what is the more we suffer. We know that what society creates for us is false reality. We cannot be 100% safe. What is meant to be will be. And if we follow humans rules we will live in constant fear of the unknown and in disaccordance with what is. We cannot be 100% safe and avoid what is meant to be. Trying to do so we resist to what is and we live at 10% of our capacities, in constant fear of the unknown instead of completely embracing the present moment.
We also put our lives in the hands human knowledge/reaction, limited by essence and we don’t hear our intuition which is directly connected to the Divine.
On the contrary if we choose to surrender to Life and to just live life each moment completely open to what is and to our intuition and own intelligence we are living a life in complete connection with the laws of the Universe.
If we understand what death is in reality we also let go of a lot of fear.
Surrendering to Life and to what is we can relax and enjoy and this deep feeling of uncertainty will vanish. Our lives become more joyful and less fearful.
Remember that a Miracle is a shift in perception, from fear to love (Acim).
Our life becomes fill with miracles, we are not afraid of death and the unpredictability of Life anymore. We know deep in our cores that all will be fine. We known that the Divine is love. We love what is and we are not resisting anymore.
And in case we do end up in a plane that is going to crash, our last moments for sure will be filled with fear- which is a normal human reaction in face of such events, but we will also spontaneously directly connect to the Divine, making the transition less painful.
So knowing all this what do you choose ?
To live in fear and in a human defined life or to delve into the beauty of the Divine unknown, surfing on the waves of life ?
