A Reason To Anything And Everything



I think that there is a reason for everything. Even me being very constantly tired these days. Some of you who know me well will attest to me being in a perpetual thinking mode and bump into lots of stuff to think about, mostly rubbish thoughts that needed recycling. The funny thing is that they are all related. It is as if they are answers that hover until it dives to engulf the appropriate question. I believe in synchronicity, that the puzzle pieces fall into its place when you look for it and that if you ask for something, you will receive someday and someway. Synchronicity means meaningful coincidences, all lined up in perpetual order like choc blocks on a chocolate factory conveyor belt. I experienced it regularly some years ago and was utterly surprised. I didn't know the word back than. I had a friend with whom I regularly chatted with and I started to talk about it after the turbulent stage in life that I experienced a few years ago. She was surprised I hadn't heard about it and suggested some books ie Deepak Chopra and Eckhart Tolle. By discovery I found many puzzles and together I composed my own experience of life and of the higher being. When I was young I always dwelled in spirituality. I questioned many things and was attracted to all spiritual readings. Till a senior of the temple said to me, what's in the spiritual scriptures is true but it didn't necessarily all truly happen . That appealed to me but I still didn't understand why religions had to claim supremacy and fight each other, why people go to church or temples and then store their religion in the back room storage and lived life as if they haven't heard the message etc. so I went on searching. That lead me to the thought of , "There is no bad religion. If we think or believe our religion promotes any form of negativity or evil or bad, we've definitely read it wrongly!"


Were I am now is that God/Buddha is in all of us. When we connect to the God/Buddha part in us, if we choose the good and love others we will forge karmic affinity and be connected to them and to all there is; which is the higher purpose in life. We experience the bliss of tushita heaven. When we choose for the bad part in us, we build a high wall between us and others and everything around us. We will experience seperation, loneliness and pain, we experience hell.
 
We are on a road of awareness, all of us are in a different stage. I feel I am trudging along forwards and wanted to share that with you. I was this afternoon aware that I am attracted to white at the moment. Red had previously been my colour. I googled it and discovered that it is the colour of renewal, innocence and truth. White seeks to remove prejudice and pre-conceived notions and to see the innocence in others. I sincerely believe this would allow me to understand that underneath every negative doing, lies a soul that was once pure but now deluded via the emotional clutter that is around us. With this understanding; is my hope for more healing within me to love even more and to live in forgiveness and gratitude. You don't have to agree with me; this is just my own personal journey and I am still learning. Love you all whom I 've had the honour and joy of knowing and oh I only now realize the candle is white too.







"Walk on a trail of loving kindness
Walk on a path of compassion
And all else around you will be beautiful."
Every Blessing

"There is no bad religion. If we think or believe our religion promotes any form of negativity or evil or bad, we've definitely read it wrongly!" I agree 100%... God is love and everything happens for a reason. Love others and you shall be loved.

Wow... so deep, I personally not a religious person... I believe in myself, time and efforts but respect the modesty in Buddhism and how it enlightens life!

i havent read the book from e.tolle, i just thought it may a bit heavy for me to understand. Thanks for sharing the colour 'white' and i'm sure you will find it delighting seeing and feeling things in a different way now.
