Osho - Create the effect and the cause follows

Oct 2 eve 1

Was updating my blog and saw this back in early August.
The law of magic by Osho
There is a situation in which you feel happy. A friend has come, a beloved has called. A situation is the cause – you feel happy. Happiness is the effect. The coming of the beloved is the cause. Religion says: Be happy and the beloved comes. Create the effect and the cause follows.

This is my own experience, that the second law is more basic than the first. I have been doing it and it has been happening.
Just be happy: the beloved comes.
Just be happy: friends are there.
Just be happy: everything follows.

I tell you, it is easier to create the effect because the effect depends totally upon you; the cause may not be so dependent on you.
If I say I can only be happy when a certain friend is there, then it depends on a certain friend, whether he is there or not.
If I say I cannot be happy until I attain this much wealth, then it depends on the whole world and the economic situations and everything. It may not happen, and then I cannot be happy.

The cause is beyond me. The effect is within me.
The cause is in the surroundings, in the situations – the cause is without.
The effect is me! If I can create the effect, the cause will follow.

Choose happiness – that means you are choosing the effect – and then see what happens.
Choose ecstasy and see what happens.
Choose to be blissful and see what happens.
Your whole life will change immediately and you will see miracles happening around you...because now you have created the effect and causes will have to follow.

I choose contentment and sannidhi and my shrine gives me the contentment. Give me the acceptance.
Once I feel I truly am accepted internally, its already the effect.
Outside non acceptance can no longer impact me.
Amen.
