Meditation: "Like Winning the Lottery"

This morning it came to me that the truth of reality is a completely astonishing one. If I truly understood it, I would walk around in a happy daze all day. I would act as though I had won the lottery and was guaranteed total security for the rest of my life. For this great truth tells me that I live in an utterly harmonious universe where nothing ever actually “goes wrong”. Every thought, action, or event— even the ones that are apparently “evil”— happens within a perfect plan. Every “thing” is actually a thought moving in the infinite and perfect dance of the universe. Nothing can clash or fight or disrupt, because there is literally no “thing” to do the clashing, fighting, or disrupting. The truth is, that in this satisfying and astonishing universe, there is only Mind (or God, Allah, the Tao, etc.) and its perfect manifestations, of which I am one. Wow!
