Surrender To The Flow

There are two basic questions that each person must resolve for themselves:

One is: Does the universe have meaning?
and the other is: Is the universe friendly?

Whatever your answers are to these two questions, these are the basic assumptions from which you are operating in the world.

Most religions are based on the assumption that the universe has meaning, and that humans have some role in the unfoldment of that meaning. Science does not look for meaning. Life without meaning is a closed system. People do better with a sense of purpose. There is something to live for, some reason to be.

Not all religions promote the idea of the universe being friendly. Some place more emphasis on eternal torment. How I respond to events and people in my life is largely a result of thinking that the universe is on my side.

We are beings who love to find meanings in everything that happens. Our meanings are more real to us than the events themselves.

Synchronicity - Serendipity - The evidence seems to indicate there is an ordering principle coming from a cosmic intelligence that is both an engineer and an artist.

Flow responds directly to our beliefs, behaviors, and actions. We can either enhance this state of perfect timing and flawless serendipity, or we can diminish it and even cut it off. When we become open, willing, trusting, we experience flow as fulfillment and joy, and synchronicities pop up all over the place. When we become fearful, doubting, controlling, flow diminishes, our day is filled with blocks and frustrations, and synchronicities cease.
