The Chicken or the Egg


Science has caught up with spiritual teachers from the beginning of time and has proven that what we put our attention, energy and focus on becomes manifest in the world. Science has also proven that there are different paradigms and that time is not linear as we perceive it, but rather it is holographic (everything happens at once). This got me thinking, did the scientists teach the spiritual teachers in some other paradigm or did the spiritual teachers manifest the scientific proof?
Interesting question, certainly one to get my mind racing in circles, but here’s a more useful question - what does it matter who knew first?
How often have you got wrapped in a circular argument with someone over who was right and who was wrong? How did you feel whilst arguing? And why was it so imperative that you were right? 
Our ego would rather be right than happy, but the power of our spirit is much greater than that, which is why we feel so rotten when we are in the midst of an argument. Our blood pressure increases, as does our heart rate. The chemistry in our body changes and our digestive process stops. If we are really getting frustrated and angry then we’ll even almost stop breathing. 
If we observed that behaviour in another as we were going about our business, we would think that a heart attack was imminent and call the paramedics. Why do we do this to our selves? More importantly why do nations do it to other nations? 
The need to be right and victorious is no longer a paradigm that humanity needs to subscribe to. We don’t have to ‘fight for survival’, there is enough of everything on this beautiful planet for every human alive to have all their needs met. 
This shift in consciousness has to come from within each one of us. At the moment we start to fall into right and wrong or good and bad, we have a choice. We can stop. We can step back and keep our body balanced, our mind centred and our hearts open. 
Any perception of right or wrong, good or bad is simply one based on the experience we have had thus far in our life. We see through the magic filter before our eyes. Today I invite you to remove your filter, open your mind and heart and choose to stay centred in peace and happiness.
Personally I would much rather be happy than right.
In love
