“Life will give you whatever experience is most helpful for the evolution of your consciousness. How do you know this is the experience that you’re having? Because you’re having it.” Eckhart Tolle.
I love this quote and it now serves to guide me to embrace EVERY circumstance I find myself in. If I can’t embrace it (some challenges are harder to embrace than others) then I do my very best to merely accept it, not to resist it.
And that’s likely the miraculous key to the quote… that when you live this quote, you cease being in so much resistance to your life.
My whole life is better because of this practice.
I have a much friendlier relationship to life. I don’t view things as “happening TO me.” I view things as happening FOR me.
And for me in a very specific way. Happening to help me drop my inner resistance to what is, and come back into alignment with the present moment.
Einstein said the important question was, “Is it a friendly or unfriendly universe?”
This quote has helped me become clear that it is a friendly universe. That my whole life gets better (quiet magically I’d say) when I am friendlier with the present moment.
And now you know the only quote that is framed on my wall. The other day I was watching Oprah interview Eckhart Tolle and she said, “I love your quote… “Life will give you whatever experience is most helpful for the evolution of your consciousness. How do you know this is the experience that you’re having? Because you’re having it.”
I hope you love it as well.
May it serve you into a friendlier relationship with your life.
Sincerely,
Patrick
