Needed Experiences

[BlueStar]

“Life will give you whatever experience is most helpful for the evolution of your consciousness.

How do you know this is the experience you need?

Because this is the experience you are having at this moment.”

~ Eckhart Tolle

I thought this quote deserved its own thread. I have written it out and keep it at my bedside. It helps, and it's a hard one to argue with.

'needed' experiences are the experiences neccisary for evolution but because of seduction and temptation we always want and desire whats not neccessary. ( I think thats what I am trying to say)...

I absolutely get what you mean, Elizabeth. I sometimes think that if we were to really LET GO and surrender to life, allowing ourselves to FLOW with it rather than trying to control, organise and manipulate all the time, then we'd know so much peace and paradoxically more freedom than we could ever imagine.

This must be along Buddha's"

"When you need to learn the next lesson, the teacher will come along."

I think whether we like it or not, we will have to learn what we will have to learn.

I've noticed in my own life and those around me that situations and patterns tend repeat themselves over and over in relationships and various other life situations. We often find that simply trying to rearrange the outer circumstances of our lives isn't enough to shift these patterns. They only seem to end when we make a shift within ourselves...a shift in consciousness. It seems that lasting change doesn't happen from the outside in as most people believe, but from the inside out...

I don't think this quote could be repeated enough.

The other day I sat back and realized that I've had several experiences that have led to the ability and finally the confidence to do something that I had failed at several times through the past 7 years or so.

Sitting back and thinking about it I could see how during the times that I worked on and failed this thing I was learning, and all of those events brought me to where I am today, able and willing to do this thing.

At the time I had no idea how dynamic those events really were.

Thank You for the reminder.

Peace ~ Love ~ Joy

There are actually a number of cultures through-out recorded history that have expressed this Truth of Life.
I often reffer to this Truth as, To everything there is true purpose.

Sorry. Just adding yet another example.
