On Sunday, I went to a Buddhist Center to attend a meditation workshop. During the lecture portion of the workshop, the teacher started talking about the EXACT same subject about which I posted on Sunday (“Don’t Believe The Rumor – 3”) which was not to believe the general opinion because it’s been said but believe (or not) because it’s been experienced. I couldn’t believe what I was hearing until I remembered that what you focus on grows. I was focused on this Buddhist passage for the blog post and it was reinforced to me later that day…it grew.
I have experienced this many times in my life even to the point of “focusing” so much on the negative that I caused a situation that jeopardized my entire livelihood. We all have the power to manifest things in our lives even though we think we are without control over such things. When you question this, think back to what you thought were coincidences. Were they really coincidences or were they manifestations?
