Our lives are continually in motion, buoyed by the wave that is the
universe’s flow. As the wave rises and falls, we are carried forward, through
life’s high and low points. The universe’s flow may take us to a place in
life where we would rather not be. As tempting as it can be to fight the
direction and size of this wave that propels us, riding the wave is intended
to make life easier. When you ride the wave, your life can evolve naturally
and with minimal effort. Riding the wave, however, is not a passive
experience. It is an active process that requires you to be attentive,
centered, and awake. You must also practice stillness so you can flow with,
rather than resist the wave’s motion.
Because life is dynamic and always changing, it is when we try to make the
wave stand still or resist its direction that we are likely to get pulled
under by its weight. If you try to move against the wave, you may feel as if
you are trapped by it and have no control over your destiny. When you reach a
low point while riding the wave and find your feet touching bottom, remember
to stay standing so that you can leap forward along with the wave the next
time it rises. Trying to resist life’s flow is a losing proposition and
costly because you waste energy.
Riding the wave allows you to move forward without expending too much of your
own efforts. When you ride the wave, you are carried by it and your head can
“stay above water” as you go wherever it takes you. It can be difficult to
trust the universe and let go of the urge to fight life’s flow, and you may
find it easier to ride the wave if you can stay calm and relaxed. Riding the
wave will always take you where you need to go.
