Tolle has attracted much attention with his book "The Power of Now". Tolle talks about moving from saying no to what is happening in the moment to saying yes, to allow what happens because "it is as it is".

What Tolle talks about reminds me of the first of John P. Miltons 12 principles for the Way of Nature, introduced in the previous lesson. The first principle is worth reading again:
"1. The Fundamental Truth: All Forms Are Interconnected, Constantly Change and Continuously Arise From and Return to Primordial Source
All material forms and all energetic, perceptual, sensate, emotional and thought forms are totally interconnected and interdependent. Also, all these forms, including the sense of individual self, are constantly changing and transforming. Fundamentally, all forms are in a continuous process of arising from, manifesting within and dissolving back into Primordial, essentially Formless, Source Awareness. At a deep level, all forms are transient and empty of permanent being. At the deepest level all forms, including ourselves, are a magical display of the Boundless, Formless Source that is our true Essence. We have the choice of either resisting this fundamental truth, and suffering; or surrendering into this truth - and dancing in the Flow."

Tolle talks about the spaciousness around the flower, the jammed car and the feeling of anger. He calls it silence and when I reflect on that I wonder if maybe this is the way mind experience it? When I sense this from my feeling/body part it is more like spaciousness is a vibration. It is also like spaciousness is the field in and from which the different forms manifest. So when I say yes to that which is, in true acceptance, I am able to act from a place inside where my own spaciousness vibrates. This puts me in the position of being able to sense into the spaciousness for which act is the right in just this moment, since space inside and space in that which I experience as outside of me, is the same. And in that way I can become co-creator of all possible futures inherent in the now.
This position will show us the truth in Miltons first principle. However, mind not connected to the feeling/body part of self ends up seeing separateness. So the minds yes is of great importance. Does a mind that disconnects, shuts off the vibration of spaciousness in us?
