One thing has to be understood very clearly: the whole of Existence is an auspicious happening. You are part of Existence, so everything happening around you is also auspicious. This is the truth of existence. Nothing that happens in Existence is inauspicious. Everything is a only a blessing for which we have to feel grateful. If this is understood clearly, your very eye becomes a grateful eye. It sees everything as extraordinary. Nothing appears mundane. Everything appears as a miracle. Miracles are continuously happening in front of our eyes. But we continuously miss them! Only because we miss them, life itself appears to be dull sometimes. When we start perceiving them, our entire life becomes a miracle. The truth is, there are too many miracles happening around us in our lives. Just accept and celebrate Existence with all its different dimensions and paradoxes. Don't judge anything. You continuously judge what is going on: something is right or something is wrong, something should have happened this way or something should not have happenened that way. Become aware that whatever happens in Existence is auspicious. In the whole world there are only two kinds of people. The first kind feels that whatever is happening in the world is auspicious. The second kind feels everything is happening against their will, and things have to be slightly altered all the time. Such people will try to alter, judge, criticize, and develop the things happening in the world according to their ideas. These people continuously suffer because of trying to change things all the time. Everything has a message for us including death and disease. Everything has something to teach us. Every incident raises our intelligence, raises our frequency of consciousness. Existence wants you to be here. You are not an accident here,; you are an incident. You are a miracle of Existence. This is the straightforward and simple truth. Don't think this is positive thinking. No. This is the plain truth. If you trust this truth, you will automatically become positive, tat's all. Understand that you are a fulfillment for Existence. If you are not here, Existence will miss you. All your wealth, relations, etc. are not an accident. Existence wants you to have all these; it wants to live through you, fulfill itself through you! Understand this. Existence is not an accident. It is independent intelligence. When you understand that it is an independent intelligence, when you understand that it is a profound mystery to be experienced and not solved, everything in your life will open itself and reveal to you the lesson it has brought with it. The best way to express deep gratitude is to live your life in this way (as described above)! When you live with overwhelming gratitude in you, you have found a space wherein nothing else is needed. It means that you have fallen into mediation. Then you will not worry about anything else. You are on the right track.
