Taking responsibility for this moment means not to oppose internally the “Suchness” of Now, not to argue with what is. It means to be in alignment with life.
The Now is as it is because it cannot be otherwise. What Buddhists have always known, Physicists now confirm: there are no isolated things or events. Underneath the surface of appearance, all things are interconnected, are part of the totality of the cosmos that has brought about the form that this moment takes.
When you say “yes” to what is, you become aligned with the power and intelligence of Life itself. Only then can you become an agent for positive change in the world.
Eckhart Tolle
