As we develop our love with our personal Antaryamin we become connected to all people through the Paramatma, who is also the source of their personal Antaryamin. We are one and same Energy: Consciousness. This is our abundance. We are all things in all of creation because the Parabrahma is the source of all creation and not just humanity. When our connection is developed fully, there is Oneness. When this Oneness is realized then the entire universe will move to bring about the fulfillment of desires because, through Consciousness, the desire that is rising up in the bulb is one with all that is. It is easy for the universe to manifest as a "miracle". It does so in a mundane form that we are used to seeing; money will come, a mate will show up, a kind word will come our way or slip from our lips for another. We are not abundant, we are the embodiment of abundance!
There is an intrinsic block to our connection with this reality and that is our sense of self that we have attached to the body/mind. We truly believe....we know...that we are the glass bulb, separate and distinct from all other glass bulbs and from all other things. As we become more aligned with the energy of consciousness being one with, the same as, our-own-Self, miracles happen spontaneously. Most of us are not totally there yet, but a little taste of this Freedom coupled with our teachings will suffice for now. Relax into your faith that this is real and it becomes a big step toward unlocking the gates.
Deeksha/teachings/OMs/processes/laughter/compassion/love is moving us all towards Oneness. Don't fight the now, it is the only thing that is "real". If you are broke, accept and enjoy the brokeness, as it is NOT who we are; it is simply a phenomenon manifesting in the present moment. Easier said than done? Not really, it is very easy. We must simply appreciate that what is there IS our lives in this moment - in this way we start living life. Life (consciousness) is bringing us all of these things and it is saying "hello, I am here, where are you?" Embrace it all always.
If you desire something then pray:
1. Having a focused intent
2. Then act...do something! to bring that intent into being. Don't fret about the outcome. Leave that to the Divine.
3. Grace will flow and miracles will happen
We may not hit the lottery right off the bat, but you will find a dime on the ground. Give thanks and know that Life itself brought you that dime...that is the miracle...don't need to look any further...but...the next time it will be a quarter...especially if you are aware of the miracle and give thanks. After that, who knows?
…I would wish you all an abundant life, but you already know my thoughts about that. If I wish for that, it would mean that you don't already have it. A conundrum.
