If we could see the arising of all events as opportunities to know and develop the qualities in ourselves, would we live in resentment toward what arises in each moment? With a center of gravity in Essence, a “yes” arises ---- the yes of recognition, rather than the no of resentment. Difficulty is first recognized, even be¬fore it is transformed. Trouble becomes a reminder that we can tap the infinite qualities of the Creative Power. Effort is not to be understood as the clash of opposites, but as the creation of a conscious presence, an “I Am.” This presence includes the awareness of the “yes and no” within us. It stands above the clash of all opposites, balancing them. Without the existence of denial there can be no work. It allows us to generate the energies essential to work by giving us the reason the friction, and the fire to affirm our presence on a higher level. The mechanism of like and dislike will always remain, but through our conscious relationship to it we awaken Being in ourselves To the extent that we are more interested in having than in being, in imagining our ultimate gratification than in giving consent to this moment, we fall into obsessive goal-oriented activity.
