The universe speaks the language of energy

“You are not in this world. This world is in you.” – Nisargadatta Maharaj
​
There’s a goofy little meme working its way through pop-psychology circles that goes something like…
​
“Life is not happening to you, life is happening for you.”
​
It’s a cozy idea:
​
A sort of psycho-spiritual Xanax (Spanax!) that spreads a soft film of pleasure around life’s sharp edges.
​
(Spanax: When life sucks, it can feel good too!™)
​
It’s also not true.
​
Life is not happening to you, or for you:
​
Life is responding to you.
​
In other words:
​​
You’re getting what you’re giving. ​
​
Walk into a party off-gassing a bunch of twisted-up negativity, and people will respond in kind.
​
Now, scale that to the rest of reality, and we’re finally seeing through clear eyes:
​
The universe speaks the language of energy, and it doesn’t respond the way we want it to, it responds the way we respond to it.​
​
Said another way:
​
​Our outer world is always directly and immediately reflecting of our inner world…​
​
…Which means the responsibility to create it, shape it, and make it our own, is on us.
​
Freeing, isn’t it?
