Resisting what happens to you keeps you stuck, while accepting everything aligns you with life's flow. The speaker argues that spiritual teachers practiced radical acceptance, and that resistance itself is what makes difficult situations persist.
Chapters
When you resist the things that are happening in your life, just remember you are missing out potentially on the divine orchestration that is occurring behind the scenes. A lot of us have this like set point for what we'll tolerate, so we'll be able to rise above the circumstances and stay aligned with our higher selves until something like pretty significant happens, and then we're like, no, resist, no, don't want that, no, no thank you. The moment you resist it is the moment it will start persist, and that is actually the moment that you begin to come out of alignment and you begin to actually resonate with this circumstance rather than resonating with what you prefer to resonate with. And just in general, if the spiritual teachers, if the most enlightened beings to have walked the face of this earth practiced radical acceptance of everything, don't you think we should maybe take a leaf out of their book and see how that feels?
