Everything Is A Miracle

Image of the Week

Existen solo dos formas de vivir la vida: como si nada fuera un milagro o como si todo fuera un milagro.

No necesitamos profundizar para saber, por experiencia propia en nuestra vida diaria, que existimos para otras personas; en primer lugar para aquellas de cuyas sonrisas y bienestar depende totalmente nuestra felicidad, y después para muchas otras, desconocidas, a cuyos destinos estamos unidos por lazos de afinidad.

Cien veces al día me recuerdo a mí mismo que tanto mi mundo externo como mi mundo interno dependen de los esfuerzos de otras personas, vivas o muertas, y que me debo aplicar para corresponderles en la misma medida en que he recibido y todavía recibo.

Un ser humano es una parte de un todo que llamamos “Universo”; una porción del mismo con límite en el tiempo y en el espacio. La experiencia que tiene de sí mismo - sus pensamientos y emociones - está marcada por la separación con respecto al resto; una especie de ilusión óptica fruto de su percepción. Este engaño actúa como una cárcel para nosotros y nos restringe tanto en lo que concierne a nuestros deseos personales como a las personas por las que sentimos afecto: las pocas que tenemos cerca.

Nuestra tarea deberá ser la de liberarnos de esta prisión, ampliando el radio de nuestra compasión para que englobe a todas las criaturas vivas y a la totalidad de la naturaleza en su esplendor.

Únicamente la vida que es vivida para los demás merece ser vivida.

Einstein is perhaps the most intelligent human to walk the earth to date. Space and time the 4th dimension is the elastic medium matter exists in. Thanks to Einstein we comprehend that.
I envision the elastic medium of our spirit and imagination defies the laws of physics in the 3rd & 4th dimensions. Your thoughts have greater velocity & mass then the membrane of space and time. Since energy once created can't be destroyed only transformed the energy that creates our spirit and imagination imagination shall be transformed to a much higher realm of reality. (IMO)

Can I simply just say what a relief to uncover someone that genuinely knows what
they're discussing on the net. You definitely realize how to bring an issue to light and make it important.
More and more people have to check this out and understand this
side of your story. It's surprising you are not more popular given that you definitely possess the gift.

This is the part that Einstein actually wrote in his own hand:

“A human being is part of a whole, called by us the ‘Universe,’ a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings, as something separated from the rest—a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. The striving to free oneself from this delusion is in the one issue of true religion. Not to nourish the delusion but to try to overcome it is the way to reach the attainable measure of peace of mind.”
--Albert Einstein from actual archival document of his draft of this quote, which he sent as a letter to his friend Robert S. Marcus on the occasion of his son passing away due to polio, on February 12, 1950

Einstein never said this. People often falsely attribute quotes ot Albert Einstein that he never said, or quote him out of context to suggest he believed in things which he didn't. It's so common there's even a word for them: "Neinsteins". This is one of the most common Neinsteins online, and seems to make an appearance every year around US Thanksgiving time. It's a favorite of people who falsely claim that Einstein was religious (he wasn't) or believed in god (he didn't) or had New Agey spiritual leanings (nope).

This quote is certainly NOT from Einstein. Some include it among the "Neinstein" quotes.
Does not sound like him at all.
There are no miracles. Can't find Einstein promoting them anywhere in his ACTUAL work.

Only superstitiouspeople believe in “Miracles”. There is no scientific proof that miracles exist. Therefore, contrary to what Einstein believed, there is only one way to live and that is the way “as though nothing is a miracle.

The human body is a miracle. The sun and moon are miraculous. Virtually every living creature has a purpose. The entire universe and everything in it is a miracle and so is life itself. Everything is amazing and the result of intelligent design! How can you not think that it is not a miracle???

Unless it is the case that a butterflies emergence from a caterpillar that has evolved from the first spark of life that mysteriously occured on a planet that somehow came into being as the consequence of an explosion of energy 14 billion years ago is evidence of the miraculous.....

At the end of the day it is about the story we tell ourselves in our heads - and if that story says there is no such thing as a miracle - then that is the evidence we will see everywhere - biut if the stroy we tell ourselves is that it is all miraculous - then that is the evidence we will see.

For me everything is Miracle. Mother Nature is God's expression of His faithfulness. Great is Thy faithfulness Oh God my Father! Since each of us is locked inside of our own observation, it is necessary for God to make Nature to show us that the truth is in us but exist outside of us.

All that is, living and not living, present, past, and to come, including us, is one. We live for one another in the sense that we are thoroughly interrelated, which means every thing and every one is constantly affecting and being affected by every thing and every one else. This is happening not because we are trying to or intending to, not because we must, not because we are responsible for one another, and not because any one or any thing exists for the purpose of the other, all of which are human made ideas. It's happening because that's the way it is. Our journeys are thoroughly interrelated. All is one, and it is all a miracle.

The river don't drink it's water, the flowers don't enjoy their own beauty, the trees don't eat their own fruits. Everything is created to serve others. When we do bag to others we are affecting negatively the energy around us. And I believe everything is a miracle. Just being able to communicate is a miracle. Just depends on the way we see life.

Indeed. I realisenow that you must see it absolutely one way or another. You cannot see somethings as miracles and others not - as that only creates resistance to what you don't deem miraculous and obsessive yearning for what you do.

Or trying to pretend something is 'normal' when you truly feel itwouldbe a miracle to have in your life, then pretend the 'normal' is miraculous in order to try and make yourself feel better. Which doesn't work.

Instead, deciding everything is one or the other is the answer. And, for me, seeing that everything is a miracle feels incredible - which it is.

However, living your life for others is nice, but living your life for others and yourself - and what truly lights you up - is better.

 Name of Albert Einstein is in itself a confirmation to the fact that his thought are not to be take lightly.
Yes I will like to add in his comments that today world has become a global village but advancement in technology particularly communication technology has made us a prisoner in our own place. Now our need to go out has almost become zero. With the communication gadgets we get every thing done while sitting at home as such purpose of our going out is getting almost nil. Now even if we go out we have nothing to see other than traffic Jams. 

We need places out to visit and people to communicate in person rather than through Phone, Laptops and whatsapp, Skype or  face time.

This idea of Unity or everything being one with and the result of everything else is an ancient Hindu (Dharmic) idea and is rendered and explored in all Dharmic literature, including the Vedas and the Upanishads. Albert Einstein among others including Henry David Thoreau were influenced by Vedic thought and considered the Bhagavad Gita and the Upanishads to be some of the most influential books ever written.

 The biggest Miracle is that only human beings can smile. No other creature has been endowed with this privilege, but the strangest thing is that, we do not want to smile and show others a cheerful face, to make ourselves and others happy.
