This new understanding about the cosmic blue print and its functioning in our “MIND-BODY ORGANISM” amply clarifies the two previously made statements (under the heading THE MORE OBVIOUS APPLICATION).
LIFE, AS IT IS, IS OUR OWN CHOICE.
AND
THERE IS A POSSIBILITY TO GO EITHER WAY EVERY SINGLE MOMENT
Let us put to test these two theorems in the more practical and real life of Susan who is suffering intensely after being cheated by Craig.
For this we would require to dissect the possible past of both (Susan & Craig) and then come back straightaway the present situation of heartbreak. Also noteworthy is the fact that we would be analyzing the situations and people from Susan’s perspective (who is a representative of our own self). So the possibility exists that Craig was not a very reliable or responsible person from the very beginning and Susan deliberately choose to ignore the hints and vibes from her INNATE INTELLIGENCE about him. May be due to some vested interests such as fulfillment of her ego upon being associated with Craig (who may have been the coolest kid on the block, so to say).in that case it is her OWN CHOICE that is making her suffer. If we choose play with fire we cannot complain when we get burns, getting burns is an inherent possibility of playing with fire it is understood without being spoken. Similarly cheating is an inherent prospect of a relationship with an infidel person. So it is Susan herself who is to blame for this situation of heartbreak and suffering today rather than Craig, since this was coming from day 1 of their relationship but she purposefully choose to turn a blind eye towards it because of involvement of “fulfilment of her ego”.(LIFE, AS IT IS, IS OUR OWN CHOICE).
Now there also exists another possibility, that Craig was a genuinely nice person when Susan first met him and this pleasantness of his drew Susan to him guided by her INNATE INTELLIGENCE and reception of good vibes. But somewhere down the line corruption occurred in his (Craig’s) inner world which culminated into today’s situation. Now it is totally up to Susan to either decide to forgive Craig for this isolated incidence of infidelity, forget this incident and move on with this relationship OR to dump him (Craig), forget this incident and move on in her life OR to continue hanging on to this incident by making a replica of it in her MEMORY and continue suffering incessantly, either with or without Craig in her life.
So life has given all these variety of options to Susan from being free of Craig and the suffering of the incident to hanging on to both (Craig & suffering) OR being with Craig and letting go of suffering etc... (THERE IS A POSSIBILITY TO GO EITHER WAY EVERY SINGLE MOMENT).
It is she who has to make a choice this moment and hence decide upon the nature, course and quality of the moments to follow (or the future).

ABUSE OF FREE WILL
Unlike any other thing or being in the universe (scientifically visible and known to us presently) we have been bestowed with the gift of FREE WILL which now in our irresponsible hands has become our own misgiving. Nothing in the universe has been bestowed with the capability or the option to interfere with the functioning of the four principle cosmic forces other than us and we have abused this power to its fullest.
The body is full and begs not to even be reminded of the word food but just because we have paid Rs 500 for the buffet we go on endlessly stuffing the body mercilessly.
The burning eyes demand some rest and sleep but we don’t heed to it at all we continue watching the late night movie or the cricket match.
Similarly events of the outer world touch and stir our inner world creating thoughts and their generic emotional responses. The event of present quickly slips into past, please understand it is not happening now. Say for example, boss takes away all the credit of our hard work or our work environment generates a disturbing negative emotional response in us. True, when that negative event of the outer world occurred it stirred our inner world and engendered negative responses in our inner world. But look at this closely that event happened a week or a month ago and we are still carrying it in our mind. The event is existent no more and nowhere but for our mind. We constantly abuse the principle force of MAINTENANCE with our FREE WILL and unnecessarily sustain the misery producing experience in our inner world. It becomes like an echo. Though the original outer world event which triggered this cascade of thought patterns and emotional responses is no more a PHYSICAL REALITY (it is gone, it is no more & has become a thing of past) we create its “INNER WORLD REPLICA” called MEMORY and reverberate the incidence in our inner world.
MEMORY is nothing but an “INNER WORLD REPLICA” of an outer world incident. (Memory is one of the components of SOCIAL INTELLIGENCE, how it gets corrupted and becomes a source of suffering would be discussed in further discussions). With this inner world replica we repeatedly relive the outer world incident and repeatedly generate the emotional responses associated with that incident.
ON A MORE JOVIAL NOTE :-)
A person may have abused and called us stupid only once but we, by the virtue of our memory, abuse & deem ourselves stupid at least over a 100 times by incessantly replaying the REPLICA of that outer world incident in our inner world. He says it, we prove it!!!!! :-). Who then is responsible for our suffering the person who abused us once or we who abused ourselves over a 100 times????
So now we understand that it is our irresponsible and abusive interference with the functioning of the cosmic forces that brings physical illness and mental suffering rather than the outer world incidences alone.
