It is said that we make things happen by using our positive or negative energy. We are responsible for whatever happens in our life. In a way, we create our own reality. This can be also understood in the way that we should credit ourselves for whatever happens in our lives through our initiative, be it a regular thing or a seemingly miracle.

This is so for the good things happening in our lives but we seem to disown anything negative such as a natural disaster or calamity. When such things happen, we are filled with anger, fear and frustration and start blaming others for it. In case there is calamity or something beyond our control, we blame the situation, circumstances or events that are beyond our control.

This way others also others are also sympathetic towards us and we feel our reaction to be justified. In case we are blamed for the event we say that nobody would harm himself or herself and shrug off the responsibility. It also makes us think that the idea that we create our own reality is faulty. But we tend to forget that we are only under an illusion and we have ‘opted’ for that state somehow; accept it as reality and suffering and tend to remain there looking for external help!

We forget that there is much more to us than what we see and realize most part of our lives. We don’t think that there is something called the unconscious mind which psychologists have termed very powerful. Many or most processes take placed at that level which affects our lives in the most unprecedented manner. By realizing this, we can lead a free life with more power.
