Magical and Miraculous
Though we may not understand it, the essential truth of the universe is that it’s synchronistic and coincidental. Everything is connected with everything else, and if we are in synch with the universe, then we experience synchronicity. The more connected we are, the more we experience coincident or simultaneous events.
Therefore, never ignore coincidences. When a coincidence happens, ask yourself, What does this mean? What is the significance of this coincidence? Coincidences are messages from your soul; they are clues to the nonlocal Self. The local self is the person that you think you are. The nonlocal Self is the unbounded spirit. You experience both, so when coincidence happens, in that moment you have glimpsed your soul, the non-local Self.
When you have a conscious awareness of your soul, you experience everything as a miracle. You feel happy, your life begins to transform. You see the connection between your inner world and your outer world; you see that every event in your life is being orchestrated by the entire universe.
As you elevate your attention from the world of humdrum and trivial to the world of the magical and miraculous, your life becomes magical and miraculous. Your attention is spontaneously alert to the fact that life itself is a miracle.

add your comment »I am feeling overwhelmed by "spritual truths." "The universe is orchestrating my life." "I am a creator, and I create my own reality." "Tell the universe your desires and your wishes will be fulfilled." "Be careful not to state what you don't want, because the universe will misunderstand." What gives?

In my experience it seems that talking to people and digging deep into their passions leads to synchronicity and coincidence. If you take action to connect from there, magic definitely happens.
I believe you can create synchronicity largely by talking to many people, telling them about things related to your knowledge and experience as well as telling them about people who they should speak with or meet.
Even if the synchronicity doesn't personally help you, something is triggered which brings more synchronicity into your own life. It's delicious!

Oh wow. I feel like I was definitely meant to read this. I have started looking into spirituality more and more and was just saying the other day that I keep noticing things popping up in my life more and more and someone said, "there are no coincidences". The more I think about it and continue on my journey, the more aware I am of these things appearing in my life. It is amazing. Simply amazing. And we all have control, life doesn't do things to us. We do. And we can change it. I cannot believe that I am finally getting it. It's so simple. And I'm glad I was ready to get it, and I want to be a part of the journey and help others get it too. Because we really can change the world.

Thank you Dr. Chopra. You are so right. I thought healing myself of illnesses and pain meant I had awakened but not even close! I am learning every day and paying attention to those synchronistic moments. The more I pay attention the more open and aware I become and the more miracles become reality. You were one of the main teachers that helped me to heal myself and your words always resonate with me and "make so much sense". Thank you for all you do! Gratefully, Jenny
