I want to take you beyond the limits of your regular considerations and experiences. This new way of life begins with two questions that are very simple. The first question is; would I want this to be true: “Every situation that will befall me is 100% the best possible event that could occur.” Meditate before answering this so that you can consider it with a clear mind and answer it truthfully. The next question is the more difficult part, it is to truthfully answer this question: Will I give that a chance to be true?

Imagine- using meditation- that God has come before you this very moment and said: “I promise you that everything that happens to you from this moment forward will be of the greatest benefit to you and can bring you the utmost good fortune, ” Suppose God went on to tell you, “Even though what happens will appear at times ill-fated or even hurtful, in the end your life will be wonderfully blessed and largely rewarded by whatever may occur. Take a minute and meditate. How would you feel about that wonderful news? Happy? Perhaps you may even be overcome with happiness.

Wouldn’t it be the best news that you could ever hear? Wouldn’t you heave a deep sigh of relief and feel as if a great burden had been lifted from your mind? Would you not then react to the next thing that comes up-even if it was painful or took something from you or appeared wrong or even unlucky- look at it as though it was going to be wonderfully beneficial for you, the best possible thing that could have happened? If you have not enthusiastically answered yes, clear your mind, meditate on it. Perhaps you have mistaken what I have explained to you.

I am not discussing the common phrase we commonly hear, “try to make the best of things,” which basically means” The situation or event really is bad and horribly unlucky, but do whatever you can possibly think of or meditate to salvage some good out of it.” Nor is what I am saying that within even the worst situation possible, there can be found a little bit of good. I am not thinking in terms of such restricted ideas. I am thinking in unlimited terms, where every situation that befalls you is absolutely the best situation that could occur-that there is no other situation fathomable that could reward you to any greater degree.

So, again, while you meditate contemplate wouldn’t that be the best piece of news you could hear? If you are open to giving this new concept a chance and actually believe that everything that happens to you will come about for a reason. When thinking about anything, to get a great deal of relief just clear your mind and meditate about the good things that are to come to you in the future. Meditation can be much better than medication and you might just be real surprised how much better you will start to feel after practicing it for awhile.
