On wednesday, I was in yoga class. Each class, we randomly select a yoga card out of a stack. My card read, “You are forming the future with what you choose to believe and think. In this moment, you are creating tomorrow, next week, and next year. Remember, it is just a thought, and thoughts can be changed.”
I don’t think that people like the idea of being able to shape their world through thought. It is much more common to think that you can change your world through action – and you can, but action is not instant or effortless. If you accept that you can change your world through thought, then you must also accept that the world is subjective, fluid, and formless. You must accept that you create your own reality through your own perceptions – and you must reject that the world lives outside of you. And indeed, this very concept has been taught for thousands and thousands of years. There’s truth to it.
