The world thrives on one crisis after another. When one crisis has run its course, news people come up others to take its place. This is as predictable as the sunrise.
This kind of "news" brings out all the gurus, self-appointed "experts", analysts and "preachers of doom" only too willing to share their views on any given subject. However articulate they may be, seldom, if ever, do they offer any viable solution to the problem. And if they do, it is immediately challenged with hostility and rejection.
Is there a real solution? Of course there is! It has been articulated by serious thinkers throughout history but nobody is listening. In more recent times, it has been presented by Dr. Einstein when he noted that, "No problem can be solved from the same level of consciousness that created it. We must learn to see the world anew".
Every problem, every crisis, every conflict, whether personal, professional, corporate, national or international can only be resolved by this self-evident rule. However difficult it may seem, the law demands that we see the troubled world from a completely opposite point of view. The opposite of chaos, turmoil and discord is harmony, balance and perpetual well being.
Where does all this take place? Think about it. The only PLACE it can occur is in your conscious awareness. Your experiences take place within you; they are not a "something" that occurs externally "out there" somewhere. This is your "mindset" which, by definition, "determines and influences events and circumstances" (Webster).
This new, opposite world is embodied in the universe which is defined by Webster as,"The whole body of things observed or assumed; including the whole without limit or exception; accruing everywhere". There is no room for chaos, confusion or conflict here!
QUESTION: The infinite universe, being the only reality, wherein does this "thing" they call a "crisis" come from?
ANSWER: It doesn't come from anywhere; it is merely the unawareness or absence of the answer. It can have no more real existence than a counterfeit dollar bill can have without there being a genuine dollar bill to be a counterfeit of.
What is termed a "crisis" is only the absence or unawareness of the answer. It is an illusory, misinterpretation of the harmony and balance already in full operation in the universe of which we are an inexorable part. In reality, the only way we can experience this illusory "thing" they call a crisis is to accept it as real. To the degree that we can separate ourselves from it and identify ourselves with the "controlling forces of the universe without limit or exception", can we prove it in the "events and circumstances" that comprise our life experiences.
This is more than a nice comfortable philosophical, abstract or academic statement. It is the LAW! "Law" is defined by Webster as, "A rule or principle that always works and is enforced by a governing authority".
