When I say 

“All is well, and everything is unfolding as it should," 

most of you begin to think about your 

personal problems or the collective problems of the world. This is exactly what you should not do. As we go through 

the vicissitudes of life we pass through much friction. This is normal. 

There is absolutely nothing wrong. Most of us have been brought up to believe that certain things are right and  certain things are wrong. This may appear true in the relative world, but in the spiritual world all is well, and  everything is unfolding as it should. 

Whatever you believe is wrong with your life or the world is nothing but an unfoldment in consciousness. It is  necessary for your evolution. If you understand this you will not react to whatever happens. You will simply smile,  observe, and become the witness of each situation that comes into your life as you unfold. 

There is nothing in the  universe that can hurt you. The substratum of the universe is divine love, pure consciousness. It does not know the  meaning of hurt or evil or sin. Those are words humans make up. 

When you begin to identify with your real nature, which is love, then you sail through all the so called calamities of  life. If you identify with the world of appearances you seem to suffer. You become angry and upset, and you become  disillusioned because the world is not turning your way. Things are not unfolding the way you think they should,  according to your concepts and preconceived ideas. There is nothing wrong. Everything is right the way it is. 

As you  begin to understand this you find peace. 

What do you really want out of life? 

As most of you know, when you achieve your goals it does not turn out as you 

hoped it would. As long as you look for something you will be disappointed. When wisdom begins to come to you,  you stop searching. You stop needing and wanting. You live in the moment, spontaneously. Then everything unfolds  the way it is supposed to. 

Take a look at your life, at all the times you interfered with a condition because you believed it wasn't right, and you  caused problems for yourself and for all concerned. Everything will always work out. There are no mistakes. You have to feel this. You have to have faith in yourself and in the powers that be. 

While working in the world, do not react to things. You are only seeing a partial story. It is like the example of the key hole I gave you. A person looks through a keyhole and sees one part of the picture. They see someone stabbing  someone else with a knife. It is horrible. But then they open the door, and they see the whole picture. They will  probably see that in a previous life the man who was being stabbed, stabbed the person who was now stabbing him. 

In this life the same thing is happening to him. When the observer looks further he will see the one being stabbed,  and the one doing the stabbing, both laughing. For nothing has happened to them at all in reality. 

You see, we never have the complete picture, it is always partial. This is why I say to not react. Whenever a  situation confronts you, act from the viewpoint of wisdom by not reacting. Your body will do something. When I  say “Do not react," I mean mentally. If you do not react mentally, and you are at peace with yourself, your body will  take the right course of action in order to transcend that situation, and you will not have to go through it again. 

If you react, and you seem to get your way and win in the situation, you have done nothing more than put your  karma in abeyance for a while. The results have not hit you yet, you stopped them for a while. But according to the  law of karma you will go through it all at one time or another. 

If you do not react mentally, divine right action will  take place and you will transcend that experience. This is the way to live in the world.
