Fear in the Microcosm, Fear in the Macrocosm

As above, so below

Yatha pinde, Tartha Brahmande
As is the atom, so is the universe
As is the microcosm, so is the macrocosm

We’ve quickly shifted from localized natural disasters to global pandemic and Nature is certainly making it clear that some things need to shift in order to live a more coherent and frictionless existence.
So what to do? First, we need to transcend the fear and hysteria. Feel it and let it go, don’t buy into it (and buy toilet paper!) and don’t let it govern your mental space. Fear suppresses your immune system and floods your body with stress chemicals and in a time like now, we need strong immune systems!

So where does this leave us? Whether we are in quarantine, locked out of sporting events or that gig got cancelled we are being forced to be less active, to slow down and to rest. Less activity brings us to a more coherent state and the more we do this collectively, the more the incoherence externally will diminish. As is the microcosm, so too the macrocosm.
Now if this is all sounding a bit much or you’d like a practice to help you action the above, Vedic Meditation increases your ability to interact with the demands of the day, rather than react to them. The profound rest experienced when we meditate allows brain wave patterns to become more coherent and mental clarity ensues. We also flood our systems with bliss chemicals, decreasing the likelihood of catching an infectious disease by 30+% and if we do catch something, we’ll recover a lot faster!

Let’s get through this together, calmly and with great adaptability. Remember to wash your hands and take a short break from all the touching. 🙏🏼
