Everything that happens between the extremes of Love and War is just the interaction of opposites manifesting in all its forms, in every conceivable situation at different points of “time” relative to each other’s perception.
We see what we expect to see, not what is really there. All of our perceptions are programmed reactions to certain stimuli. This reaction need not be an accurate perception of said stimuli. A perception, whether real or imagined to be real, will result in the same triggering of the programmed reaction. So it doesn’t matter if you think that all that is out there is real or not, created by you or God, blah, blah, blah.
It is nothing at all, but is also everything you project that you think it is. It is what you think it is. Your thoughts create. It is all the manifestation of what you think it is.
The more you lose programmed reactions, the more accurately you see things, and experience life as the big entertaining show that it is. You begin to see situations from both sides. You lose the tendency towards condemning (usually called judgment) and become more tolerant of the shortcomings of the behavior of others, aware that everyone is doing the best they can according to their programming..
Every event in your life is inevitable; if it wasn’t, it wouldn’t happen.
