Today I was reading the transcript for a satsang Paramahamsa Sri Nithyananda gave on the idea Impossible. It triggered a feeling inside me that if I put into words would include resistance to an idea, lockdown on a point of view, stuck on and determined about, a conviction regarding any other possibility than 'impossible', stubborn, righteous, narrow minded and fearful. It is not likely change is going to be so easy to understand if the concept of impossible is not tackled.  Lets embrace another point of view; "impossible" to "I'm possible"


I want to introduce the idea of responsibility here. I am defining responsibility as believing, thinking, living, and acting from the idea that you are responsible for all the happenings in and around your life making a difference to yourself and others. Taking responsibility means empowering yourself to change all the happenings of your life both inside you and outside you. What about all those things which we did not cause yet are affecting our life or impacting us personally? Well, if something is impacting our life regardless of whether we are the cause or not, we are responsible for it, understanding that this is how we solve it. We are responsible for our experience inside of what shows up in our life. If it is conflict, then we are responsible for solving the conflict inside us. Life is always inner to outer. Because we are consciousness, we are cause and the world around us is the effects through matter. Consciousness moves matter. Its how we shape our life and mould it and interact with it. Thoughts become things. So what is impossible may be for some whose cognition is not empowered with the right context, perspective and understanding about who you are and what life is.
So how does one embrace change? By first establishing the right cognitions inside you so the context you are working with towards change is 'possible' first and empowering forward momentum in your life with you as the Source of this change. Its about being the leader of your life so even as change arises which is what this world is all about, you still are taking responsible actions in the face of whatever arises. Impossible is a mindset and belief. Change is the law of life and the cognition we carry about ourself should be stable and rooted in authenticity so that as change occurs we are stable from within and dont get swept away in the currents that run throughout our days.
