The Surrender Experiment

Oh, happy Mama’s day. And I want to say that not just the moms out there, but the dads out there playing with good moms. Because that feminine essence can help the dads be a good mommy too, as well as you beloved moms. So what a glorious day here in Northwest Indiana, the tree of life is coming back to life. Aren’t we all and I don’t know if you guys have noticed the last three days, my energy, it’s like a lot of peace, a lot of calm. And a lot of good energy has been flowing. Because I’ve read some stuff on the internet about why but I won’t bore you with that right now with solar flares and things like that. But it just the last three days, I feel like I’ve been like surfing on a really calm wave. I’m enjoying it got a lot of good energy. So hopefully you guys do too. All right, so let’s talk about the surrender experiment. This is Chapter 32, the book that I’m writing, and I’m going to read you the first paragraph, because there was a question in there that Michael singer poses to every human being. He’s the author of the book, the surrender experiment. But I’m talking not just about the book, actually the title to the chapters. The surrender experiment wasn’t just the book. We’re all here to experiment with surrender. So let me read you this and I’ll flesh it out. I read Michael singer’s book, the surrender experiment in 2016, which explains his life’s journey. And the first chapter, he posed the question, which really resonated with my soul and my life philosophy. He asked this, am I better off making up an alternate reality in my mind? And then fighting with reality to make it be my way? Or am I better off letting go of what I want, and serving the same forces of reality that managed to great that the entire perfection of the universe around me? So that’s the question he poses, you either surrender to reality and trust, the perfection and the holiness of it. Or you can create your own reality in your head, and you’ll be damned to make it happen. I’m gonna get those trees to bend right now, how ludicrous would that be? In some ways, I think this is the biggest question we all need to answer in our lifetime. And the work by Byron Katie, she states it hurts when we argue with reality. Byron Katie does a lot of stuff about our thoughts. Both singer and Katie came to realize that reality is what it is. And we must decide to either surrender to it or resist it. As I’ve mentioned previously, resisting what is can be super faint, painful, and stressful. Many people living in survival mode today are there because their egoic minds won’t allow them to surrender to the life situation. And a singer said in his quote, We are fighting the entire perfection of the universe, and we don’t know everything. Singers journey will elucidate this concept as it became a yes man to everything he was encountering. Everything he was encountering day to day? How often do we resist what is happening by trying to control or manage it? My recent health issues have taught me that even with our bodies, we don’t have control over what is occurring all the time. I’ve had some blood pressure problems have some skin cancer problems. If that supermind needs me to stop my therapy practice. For reasons I may not understand. It will get me to stop. Some physicists are calling us humans, avatars for a reason. We do have free will to choose many things in our life. But if the perfect universe needs something from me to finish its mission, I will have to surrender to it. And this surrender experiment book singer illustrates how things have a way of working out even when we have no clue for the why someone recently had to drop out of one of my workshops for personal reasons, which opened the doorway for a beloved family member to be able to do the workshop in June. I suggest we sit back and let it unfold naturally. Rather than playing Whack a Mole all day long. There will be too many modes to whack of we try to control reality. Again, think about what he’s saying. We have a choice to make bifurcation. I can either create the reality I want my head and be damned to make it happen. You know how well that works, right? Or I can just surrender to what is and trust the perfection of the universe. Whatever is running the show here with some people call God, the quantum field, consciousness, whatever you want to call it, physicists know, there’s something going on, you know, the especially the younger physicists, I think, they know there’s, there’s something behind the chaos. And I put out my Eli page a few days ago, I found a new rabbi. Rabbi is Sir Weisberg on YouTube. And he’s talking about a lot of Jewish prophecy that was written 2500 years ago. And lo and behold, it’s happening in the world now. America is on its downslope, like the Roman Empire. I was at breakfast this morning with my brother and his wife, and my niece and her kids. And I was talking to my niece about, you know, how people were not working much not doing things much, you know, people needing help, nobody wants to work, etc, etc. I said, don’t look at this specific look at the general America is on its way out. Now that don’t get scared with that. We’re not going anywhere. But everything has a rise in a fall. And we’re on the downslope so when you’re seeing what’s going on in this country that I love dearly, you know, things are, it’s a shitshow things are going crazy, but it has to be this way, it all has to be broken down to build a backup. Does that make sense? So let me read you seghers question one more time. Am I better off making up an ultimate reality in my mind and then fighting with reality? To make it be my way? Or am I better off letting go of what I want, and serving the same forces of reality that managed to create the entire perfection of the universe around me. So it’s either fight or surrender. And further on in this chapter, I talked about the Yes Man movie with Jim Carrey, how he kept saying yes to things. Well, that’s what Michael singer talks about in his book. He just kept saying yes, yes, yes. Because he trusted the universe. Not this the the ego that the egoic mind. And his life was amazing. If you get a chance to read the book. It’s a really good simple read. It’s called the surrender experiment. wonderful book, very inspiring. But that’s what we want to do. But let’s not jump in all at once. I know most of you listening to this will say, I’m not gonna do that. We’ll try it a little bit. You know, I’m pretty good at surrendering to what is like when this guy said he had to drop out of the workshop. Right away. Something else popped out. The universe knows what it’s doing the wisdom of the universe, you know, the consciousness. We got baby consciousness compared to what’s running this thing. The whole universe. What do we know? Got it. Alright, listen, enjoy mommy’s day. Hopefully you get some good weather like we’re getting here in Northwest Indiana. And I’ll be talking to you guys real soon. Love you. Bye bye.
