Most people see theirselves as an individual with a free will who has to control life and try to make the right choices. Nonduality points towards the idea that we are all one consciousness experiencing itself in many ways. We are an instrument being played by consciousness. Our mind makes us believe that we are an individual who can choose what to say, what to think and what to feel. But this idea is just a thought created inside our head. In reality everything is simply happening, including us.
Free will
“If the moon, in the act of completing its eternal way around the earth, were gifted with self-consciousness, it would be fully convinced that it was traveling its way of its own accord…
So would a Being, endowed with higher insight and more perfect intelligence, watching man and his doings, smile about man’s illusion that he was acting according to his own free will”
Albert Einstein

Let
it be
When I find myself in times of trouble,
mother Mary comes to me,
speaking words of wisdom, let it be.
And in my hour of darkness
she is standing right in front of me,
speaking words of wisdom, let it be.
Let
it be, let it be, let it be, let it be.
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be.
And
when the broken hearted people
living in the world agree,
there will be an answer, let it be.
For though they may be parted
there is still a chance that they will see,
there will be an answer. let it be.
Let
it be..
And
when the night is cloudy,
there is still a light, that shines on me,
shine until tomorrow, let it be.
I wake up to the sound of music,
mother Mary comes to me,
speaking words of wisdom, let it be.
