Universe Inside Us - Destiny's Fate?
One should let destiny be with the universe because going along with the stream
is similar to drifting in the river of life and the currents decide the way
forward. The reassurance of abandonment brings with it the notion of
destiny. However, one day it is realized that destiny is not an outsider
in the life of a person but an interwoven fiber.
The change in consciousness constitutes a fundamental and radical change. One
stops being a passenger on the cosmic journey and becomes the universe itself. It
speaks of every twist and turn, each joy and pain from inside. The
caprice of the hand of destiny unveils itself to be only a mirror image of our
will, thoughts, and deeds.
The shift initiates an introspective quest. Unfolding in essence is being
and as the layers of conditioned thought are stripped off. It is not about
taking control but accepting the fact that the universe is also in and part of us. Shaping
reality isn’t some mysterious power that you cannot achieve, but an unrealized
potential deep inside you.
However, this journey ignites a process of
discovery of one’s identity. The essence of being manifests as the layers
of conditioned thinking are stripped off. The truth is we do not need to
outwit destiny by controlling everything that happens around us, but we accept
that the universe lives in us. It is actually not an obscure or elusive
power, it’s something that exists in us and we only need to tap into it to
transform our world.
By the same token, the new sense of self erases blame. These former attributes
of random fate are reinterpreted as a means through which the universe learns
its lessons. For an individual, hardships are potentials for advancement;
shortcomings act as stages to self-realization. It is now the individual’s
inner compass that determines the direction and the responsibility for the
narrative of existence lies at his feet.
It is a choice we make for ourselves—seeing life in terms of destiny, or
accepting our universe. This is the change of viewpoint, which turns
fatality into empowerment. The direction of events is not set as fate, but
a deliberate choice of action that resonates with the “universe dweller”
within.
