What Does Going with the Universe Mean?

The Universe is your Friend

When you rest as the Witness, you realize that the Universe, the hamonious order, the formless field of all life forms, is your Friend.

As the witness, you are no longer entangled in the drama of personal identity. You begin to perceive the underlying intelligence — the harmony in which all things rise and fall. To call it “friend” is symbolic: it is not a friend in the human sense, but the most intimate companion, for it is your own source.

Every person is looking for friends (connections), an energy field, to join, to merge, to belong, to resonate, to be strengthened. But most seek it outwardly — in other people, communities, movements. This longing is actually the soul’s disguised call to reunite with the field of Being itself.

When consciousness identifies with form — with body, thought, and story — it appears to be separate. This creates a sense of incompleteness, a restlessness, a subtle homesickness. This “homesickness” is the soul’s disguised call.

Think of it like: The wave is never separate from the ocean. But if the wave forgets it is water, it will feel small, anxious, and incomplete. The yearning to “return” is simply the wave’s awakening to its own nature.

In human life, this shows up as longing for love, truth, freedom, or God.

When you cease to be an individual (identifying with thought, emotion, the body), you recognize that the formless field (Truth) is your greatest friend.

The dissolution of false individuality (the ego-identity) reveals the true identity: the timeless awareness in which thought, emotion, and body appear and disappear. This formless Presence is indeed your supreme support — or your True Home, as Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh called it.

When you merge with the field of formless energy, miracles are gradually revealed to you.

The greatest miracle is inner freedom, the end of resistance.

Most people, when they hear “miracle,” think of dramatic events — healing a disease instantly, manifesting wealth, levitating, or bending the laws of physics. But these are not the deepest miracles. They are side effects. The true miracle is far more profound and subtle:

The End of Resistance

Resistance is the constant inner “No” to life:

·       “This moment should not be this way.”

·       “I should be different.”

·       “Others should act differently.”

This “No” creates suffering. It’s what keeps the mind restless, emotions heavy, and the body tense.

When you align with the Source, the “No” dissolves. Life is accepted as it is, in real time. This is the end of resistance. You don’t collapse into passivity — instead, you act from clarity, without friction against reality.

Inner Freedom

Inner freedom means your consciousness is no longer limited within the body-mind, but unbounded.

·       Emotions still arise, but they pass through like clouds.

·       Thoughts appear, but they no longer dictate your being. You can more easily let it pass. This is freedom from the tyranny of the mind, freedom from being dragged by every desire and fear (like and dislike).

Why Inner Freedom is the Greatest Miracle

When you recognize the Source of your existence :

·       Peace replaces mental conflict-struggling with will power.

·       Gratefulness flows naturally, as you can access more energy beyond your individual energy when you need to.

·       Synchronicities, creativity, and even external “miracles” arise from this state.

But even if none of those came, this freedom itself is enough. For to be free from suffering, free from fear, free from the compulsion of ego — this is the one miracle that nothing can surpass.

Why Nothing Surpasses Inner Freedom

When a person is in suffering, conflict, all ambitions — wealth, success, even “spiritual powers” — lose their taste. In that moment, there is only one cry within: “Please, let this pain end.” “I just want peace.”

Only when the fire of suffering is extinguished does the mind regain the space to think of creation, expression, and play.

Freedom First, Creation After

Freedom precedes creation. Until the storm of suffering ends, the mind cannot play in the garden of creation. Before freedom, creation feels forced, like building on shaky ground. The energy is consumed in battling pain, conflict, or inner resistance.

Once the knot of suffering is released, energy that was once locked in resistance becomes available for creativity, love, and purposeful action. You naturally shift from survival to creation.

This is why Masters through ages emphasize liberation. True teachers do not first promise siddhis (powers) or worldly manifestations. They point first to freedom from suffering. Because without this, even “miracles” feel empty.

to be free from suffering, fear, and ego’s compulsion is the greatest miracle.

What happens if we try to create/manifest from fear, doubt, or conflict?

We manifest distortion, not clarity
Fear narrows our perception. Instead of seeing possibilities, we see threats. Instead of inspired action, you take reactive action. The creation that comes out of this is often small, defensive, or burdened — it carries the vibration of its energy source (fear, conflict)

We reinforce the state we’re in
Creation amplifies the energy behind it. If we plant a seed in poisoned soil, the fruit will carry that poison. In the same way, when we manifest from fear or doubt, the outcome — even if it appears successful at first — will echo back fear and doubt in some form. The energy hasn’t been transformed yet.

Effort replaces flow
Because we’re not aligned with the Universe, the Presence (Truth), we push, struggle, overthink. Things may “work” on the surface, but it feels heavy. We spend enormous energy to move a little, and often burn out.

Conflict multiplies
Inner conflict becomes outer conflict. If you write from doubt, the words don’t flow. If you build an app from fear or desperate need, you attract confused partners, unstable progress, or endless delays. The world mirrors your inner state.

Contrast: Creation from Freedom

When resistance ends, surrender happens or inner freedom flowers, creation no longer flows from negative energy. It flows as an expression of fullness, fulness of energy of the presence. This energy is pure and contains in it intelligence, truth. So solutions naturally appear as you see things clearly. You appreciate the chance of doing your work and enjoy what you do.

So, the principle is:

  • From negativity, you manifest more negativity.

  • From freedom, you manifest harmony, with a smoother path.

    That’s why freedom must come first — freedom purifies the soil (energy) before you plant a seed.

Every other miracle is an effect; inner freedom is the cause.

Think of a tree: Outer miracles are like fruit. Inner freedom is like the root of the tree. If the root is nourished, fruit comes naturally.

Its branches may be full of fruit one season, and bare the next. If your joy depends only on the fruit, then your peace rises and falls with conditions you cannot control — weather, season, harvest. This is like chasing outer miracles: wealth, success, special powers. They come and go.

But if you care for the root of the tree, something deeper happens. Even if the fruit is absent for a while, the tree is alive, strong, and whole. And when the season is right, fruit naturally appears — effortlessly, without forcing.

Outer miracles are effects (fruits)

Healing, wealth, success, or extraordinary powers are effects in the realm of form. They depend on conditions — time, matter, body, mind. They appear and disappear, because all effects are impermanent.

Example: If someone manifests wealth but still lives in fear or meaninglessness, the wealth does not end their suffering.

Inner freedom is the cause (the tree)

When resistance ends, you touch the Source directly — the ground from which all effects arise. From this root, peace flows naturally. Even creativity and outer miracles flow naturally. Because you are resting in the cause (Source), you are no longer dependent on chasing effects. From that wholeness, abundance, vitality, and harmony are more likely to flow.

The end of inner resistance transforms the very ground of your existence. The miracle of inner freedom makes you untouchable by life’s ups and downs — while remaining fully alive within them.

Synchronicities and effortless resolutions

When aligned with the Source, life begins to flow with synchronicities, effortless resolutions, and what the mind calls “miracles.”

For example, if you’re a writer and about to publish a book, you may experience: some synchronicities and effortless resolutions:

The Right Helpers Appear: You may suddenly meet (or be introduced to) an editor, designer, or marketer who perfectly understands your book’s essence. Instead of searching for months, the right person “shows up” through a casual conversation, a random message, or a chance encounter.

Ideas Flow Without Strain: Instead of struggling to refine your manuscript, insights come during meditation, walking, or even resting. Sentences “write themselves,” and difficult concepts suddenly become clear and simple in your mind.

Unexpected Opportunities: A podcast host, influencer, or community leader may reach out to interview you — without you actively seeking them — because they stumbled on your video, a friend shared your work, or they felt intuitively drawn.

Timely Guidance: You might open a book, watch a video, or overhear a conversation, and it contains the exact advice you needed at that very moment — as if the Universe answered your question through an ordinary channel.

Delays That Serve You: Sometimes, what feels like an obstacle (a delay in a plan) later turns out to be protection — because during that “gap,” you receive insights that improve the project far beyond the original plan.

…you receive insights that improve the project far beyond the original plan.

How can living from the Source bring you extraordinary abilities (siddhis)?

When do siddhis (extraordinary abilities) happen?

  • Naturally, as a by-product of deep union with Source.
    In the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, siddhis arise when the mind is deeply absorbed in samadhi (oneness with Being). They are not “created” by effort of ego, but unveiled when resistance, separation, and self-centered striving dissolve.

  • Not through striving for them.
    Patanjali and other Masters caution: chasing siddhis for their own sake traps you back in the ego, pulling you from the depth of freedom.

How does living from the Source bring siddhis?

  1. Alignment with the fundamental field of reality

    The Source (Being, Consciousness itself) is the substratum of all phenomena. When you are stabilized in Source, you’re no longer acting from separation, but as the field through which all forms move. That’s why intention, thought, and energy flow more directly into manifestation.

  2. Freedom from distortion

    • Normally, fear, doubt, and craving dissipate your energy and distort perception.

    • When your mind rests in the Source, pure-inexhaustible energy flows through you without barriers. This flow of universal energy allows for extraordinary synchronicity and capacities to show.

  3. Expansion of perception

    • Living from the Source quiets the restless mind → perception becomes clear, true. You see reality not from the “wave” level or fragmented reality but from the “ocean” depth, wholeness.

    • This clarity itself feels miraculous: insight, foresight, subtle perception (clairvoyance, telepathy, etc.) naturally unfold.

  4. Energy mastery

    • The body-mind is no longer cut off from universal energy.

    • With access to cosmic energy, even the laws of the physical body can bend (healing, lightness, strength, etc.).

So the paradox of having extraordinary abilities (siddhis) is:
Siddhis happen not when you seek them, but when you stop needing them.
They appear because you live in freedom, not because you want powers.
They are like fragrance from a flower: not the goal, just the natural radiance of union with Source.

Here’s what the three Masters —Osho, Jiddu Krishnamurti, and Dr. David R. Hawkins—expressed on extraordinary abilities, siddhis, spiritual manifestation, and alignment with the Source:

Osho often de-emphasized striving for supernatural powers and instead pointed toward awakening or seeing miracles in the ordinary:

  • “If you are intelligent, if you are alert, the ordinary becomes the extraordinary.”

  • On siddhis specifically: “Siddhis are like flowers on the way. Enjoy them but don’t be attached. They are not the goal; they are just milestones.”

Krishnamurti emphasized inner transformation as the true miracle, seeing how presence, compassion, and clarity arise from awareness:

  • “I was supremely happy, for I had seen. Nothing would ever be the same. I have touched compassion which heals all sorrow and suffering… Love in all its glory has intoxicated my heart…”

  • “The ability to observe without evaluating is the highest form of intelligence.”

Dr. David R. Hawkins’s teachings relate deeply to manifestation through consciousness:

  • We change the world not by what we say or do, but as a consequence of what we have become.

  • “In a universe where ‘like goes to like’… we attract to us that which we emanate.
