Purpose
Galileo made the bold statement in the 17th century , “Everything that exists in our Universe or ever had existed, had a purpose for its existence.”
The grandfather of astronomy has been renowned as one of the greatest mind of our world.
What did he mean by that statement. What were and are the implications? Is it still relevant today?
If so, how does it impact our world, and more importantly, our personal lives?
I am not going to get into the impact on the world, but I am going to open a train of thought that does impact our live in a very meaningful way.
How many of you are dealing with a never ending stream of seemingly negative events? How many of those events seem to cascade together? Why are they happening to you? Why don’t they ever seem to end?
According to Galileo, if everything that exists or ever had existed had a purpose, what is the actually a purpose for these baffling experiences?
What cold it be, and why YOU?
I want you to think about this for a moment or two.
Why are these seemingly negative events constantly bombarding you, and creating problems in your life?
My name is Rev. Rod Kelly, and I am a Celtic Spiritual Elder, and board certified consulting hypnotist.
For the past two decades I have been helping clients and friends unravel the mysteries behind this statement.
My insights on this matter stem from the teachings and understanding of my ancestral heritage. I am Celtic, and it is believed that my ancestors dates back to the Druids, and their mystical, and sometime magical practices and understandings.
It is an ancient understanding that all seemingly negative events that come into our lives have only two possible purposes.
The first; They are the direct result of either our actions or lack of actions. It’s often called karma. They are the resulting events of something you did, or didn’t do.
You don’t make a payment on your car or home, and the creditor takes it back.
You broke the law and you go to jail. Makes sense?
What could possibly be the second reason? What do you think it would be?
The second; All events that aren’t self-created have only one reason for existing. That, very bluntly, is that they come to us as lessons that need to be learned from.
Am I saying that all of the garbage that has come into your life was just trying to teach you something?
You see, life is school that never closes. It a series of classes that just never end.
Are your impressions of the situations based on the reality of them or just your perspective of them?
Is there a pattern that the events are falling into? When the lessons of challenges aren’t realized… the severity of the issues intensify.
Isn’t it true, that since your current issue first began it has gotten much more severe?
How do you begin unraveling this mystery?
One of the methods that has worked really well for many is the following:
If the best friend you have ever had in your entire lifetime was faced with the identical situation, what advice would you give them?
Let me repeat this. What would be different in their situation and yours? Could it be that you would have a different perspective? Perhaps one that wasn’t embroiled in all of the emotional connection to complicate the issue?
What knowledge could you gain from the situation?
What would the lessons have been?
There is a Universal Law that states “Once the lesson of the situation is clearly understood and internalized, it can never be repeated.”
Life is a school that never closes, a series of classes that never end.
