Worldly facts can induce a kind of amnesia. Caught up in reacting to them, believing in problems without any awareness of our instrumental participation, we may forget that what’s happening is part of a larger story, and that how the story unfolds depends on the stance we take in relation to the facts. When we remain poised and unresisting, we invite problems to move on, to change, to resolve, whereas when we attempt to force solutions, refusing to accept things as they are for now, or otherwise exerting our will, we unwittingly lock the problem in place. As the Field Center Course tells us, “the problem and the solution are the same; resist one, and you resist the other.” Put another way: A problem is a situation resisted; its solution is the situation accepted. Both outcomes are inherent in the quantum matrix. Which is called forth into expression depends on the consciousness of the one having the experience. Blame, endlessly rehashing worrisome details, and resistance bind us to the problem in consciousness, thus perpetuating the problematic reality; taking responsibility, letting go of the concern over outcomes, accepting things as they are, and resting deliberately in the conviction that some greater good is unfolding go far beyond mere attitude adjustment. Mobilized through the Law of Correspondence, they transform the problem itself into its solution, sometimes right before our eyes. Why not experiment with this intriguing principle for, say, a week? If you find yourself lapsing into resistance, you don’t have to make that something else to resist. Simply start the week over. Imagine: A whole week without problems!
