HJ: Life will give you whatever experience is most helpful for your growth and personal evolution. When seeing things in this context, it changes how we experience adversity and challenge. Instead of lamenting what is happening, we begin to ask questions like what is the lesson here for me? This leads to rapid personal and spiritual growth, healing and radical improvement of your life… particularly your happiness, peace and joy.

Bounce Back and Thrive: The Secret to Turning Adversity into Opportunity

“Sweet are the uses of adversity which, like the toad, ugly and venomous, wears yet a precious jewel in his head.” ~William Shakespeare

We are the universe.  We hear this all the time and it usually gives us a warm feeling of connectivity inside, but what does this really mean?  How can we make sense of this with our rational minds?

There are many ways to explain how we are all connected to one another and how we are all one with each other, but there are only a few main ways in which we can understand how we are literally the whole universe in the truest sense.  Here is how we are literally the universe:

1. We are the universe from a quantum perspective

At the surface level, we are human beings in two totally different areas of space.  But what goes in to making a human being? Molecules. Which are made of atoms. Which are made of subatomic particles like electrons combined with empty space. Which are made of quarks.  Which are made of vibrating strings within the Unified Field.

Lessons and blessings come in all shapes, sizes and forms. Love them; they are put in our life for a reason. ~ Creator

Most Americans do not understand what the Federal Reserve is or why it is at the heart of our economic problems.  When Americans get into discussions about the economy, most of them still blame either the Democrats or the Republicans for inflation, for the housing crash, for our rampant unemployment and for the national debt.  But the truth is that the institution with the most power over our economic system is the Federal Reserve.  So exactly what is the Federal Reserve?  Most people would say that it is an agency of the federal government. But that is absolutely not true.  In fact, the Federal Reserve itself has argued in court that it is not an agency of the federal government.  Rather, the Federal Reserve is a privately-owned banking cartel that has been given a perpetual monopoly over our monetary system by the U.S. Congress.  This privately-owned central bank has been destroying the value of the U.S. dollar for decades, it has run our economy into the ground and it has driven the U.S. government to the brink of bankruptcy.  The Federal Reserve operates in great secrecy, it has never been subjected to a comprehensive audit and it is not accountable to the American people. Yet the decisions that the Federal Reserve makes have a dramatic impact on the lives of every single American citizen.

In general, we mere mortals tend to perceive from the perspective of the serializing intellect, in that we identify things as being discrete, separate, and distinct from one another. We notice the differences between things and classify and categorize them. Our perspective is one of fragmentation and apparent separation. We usually tend to consider that the most important aspects are the ones at the unique and individual end of the spectrum [i] — the things that allow the analytical mind to discern between one thing and the next.

In his compelling book The Medium, the Mystic and the Physicist (first published in 1974), Lawrence LeShan highlights the similarities between the worldviews and philosophies of these three diverse groups, demonstrating that they are all essentially describing the same interconnected, harmonious conception of reality as one another, while having arrived at these perspectives via very different paths.
