As the Covid 19 pandemic continues to spread its wings the world over, I decided to do some serious introspection/ meditation. I put the question to the Universe and my Inner Self. “What is the message from this pandemic, that we are not seeing? What is the learning, at an individual level, and at the collective level?

And the answer came, loud and clear. It said “The only certainty, is uncertainty. You can ask any question about yourself, your health, your job, your earnings, your family, your country, your relatives and friends, your politicians, your future, your country’s future, the economy, who will be infected, what will be the outcomes, will we get our basic stuff, when will be go back to being normal—basically, whatever question you ask at this point of time, there is only one answer “We don’t know. Anything is possible” Even questions that are medical in nature–are we naturally immune, will we develop herd immunity, when will a vaccine be ready, does any drug really and unequivocally help, how did the virus originate, how many people will get infected—-all questions that cannot be answered with any certainty….only with uncertainty.

Life has always been and always will be uncertain. We have somehow forgotten that and have taken hold of money, assets, people, insurance, concepts, beliefs–whatever you can get hold of, basically–and have started feeling that we are safe, we are protected. This has always been untrue, and will remain so, right from the time we were cavemen foraging and hunting for our food, till now. The only truth is the present moment, the NOW. Everything else, is uncertain. The next hour is uncertain, the next day is uncertain, the next week, or month or year, is equally uncertain.

What can we do?

We can only be 100 percent sure of one thing right now–and that is uncertainty. We have to start seriously moving into the present moment, the NOW, and start learning to dance on a moving floor, so to speak. Once we accept, wholeheartedly and deeply, that everything is uncertain, then we come to ground zero. We are ready, to accept any situation, because any situation is possible. It is our resistance to accept the what is or the what will be, that is the main issue. Once we surrender and accept that we have no control, and every next moment is uncertain, we get into the eye of the storm, where a deep peace and calm resides.

Having accepted that every next moment is uncertain and anything is possible, we can then proceed, to remain is this groundless ground. And from here, as quantum physics, metaphysics, the law of attraction and epigenetics suggests, we can decide and choose, with our thoughts and emotions, from the infinite possibilities in the future, what reality we want to create or inhabit. There are multiple possibilities or probabilities, and once we let go of all certainties, from that blank slate, and only from that blank slate, can we choose, think, and imagine what reality we want.

Embrace the uncertainty, know that that is the only certainty, and from that void, choose to attract and create that which you desire.

We can only trust and have faith in—uncertainty.
