Connecting To The Universal Power

I have been in a very contemplative situation lately; probably because there have been so many deaths of loved ones that I have been so attached to. We all accept the idea that one day we will leave this existence and move on to another. But what happens in between? Where do we go immediately after leaving this realm? Is it safe? Will we enjoy it there? Do we get to come back? All of the above may be a small part of what plagues us, while we are trying to establish and maintain ourselves in the meantime.

My greatest desire for myself right now is to find a way to connect to the grand Universal Power and to solidify that connection. This will enable me to go about my daily existence with inner peace and calmness, and not allow myself to get mired down in the minutia of circumstances that I cannot change.

My first step is to understand why I am here. I feel part of the reason I incarnated into this world was first of all to help repair my karmic debt, by becoming immersed in some pain and suffering as a human being. There is no other world that I have been made aware of that would enable me to do this.

Next, is to investigate a way to establish a rapport with my fellow human beings in a reasonable working relationship that will be of benefit to all. I would do whatever I could to help create a better existence for all of us. For me, that equates to being a kind and loving person.

There is not one big cosmic meaning for all; there is only the meaning we each give to our life, an individual meaning, an individual plot, like an individual novel, a book for each person ~ Anais Nin

Whenever I allow myself to walk into a negative vibration with all my rantings and ravings about the injustices of the world around me, I know precisely at that moment that I am unhooked from the Universal Power and must make a full conscience effort to bring myself back in sync. I test myself periodically as to how I feel. Being in the ‘sweet zone’ with a feeling of serenity, is my indicator that I can now allow others to be in their own particular frame of mind with non-judgment and acceptance on my part.

I prefer to determine for myself what is my own personal barometer for success. Why should I make that judgment call from outside sources, rather than from my inner feelings? It is simply a bad habit to want to live our lives based on what is out there and what appears to be the goal to want it all. Should not our aim be that we are living with our own brand of success? What will it take to give us the impression that we ‘have arrived.’

I am willingly and openly attaching myself to the Universal Power minute by minute, if need be. The payoff in taking myself out of the struggle, and surrendering myself to the oneness of the Universal Power is worth exploring every minute of self-doubt. The outcome facing me is that I quiet my inner being down, and cease to struggle for things that are of little value for the rest of the term here and certainly of no consequence in my new existence.
