What is the difference between what the Brain says and what the Universe tells us?

The brain as a physical structure is nothing but adipose tissue, which is fat. Part of the brain is called receptors; part of it is called operations; there is a part which is called the memory bank. These different parts of the brain are stimulated all the time, and that is how the brain functions: through very simple operations, which is actually the essence of the universe—simplicity.

However, we like to believe that the brain and its functions are very complex. For example, if I need to double the number 2, the brain does not multiply 2 x 2 to give the answer as 4. Instead, it adds 2 + 2 to get that answer. The brain does not multiply and divide. It simply adds or deletes that many times. But we tell the brain to function in a manner in which education has conditioned us. If we truly allow our brain to work as it is supposed to, with simplicity, and not the way education has trained us to, we will realise that it speaks the universal language—that of simplicity.

Our intuition is the constant communication that we have with the universe; it is our direct feed. Unfortunately, the brain—because of all the education—interrupts that and uses logic instead. By not allowing ourselves to be in sync with the universe, we bring about all the things that we call ‘wrong’ in our lives. It is not that they are wrong. These situations bring us a lot of unhappiness because we have an expectation.

In reality, the brain, when allowed to function with simplicity, and the universe, both have the same voice. All we have to do is to listen to that voice. The best way of doing so is to give everything our best effort and have no expectation as to the result. Because whatever the result, it will be the best for us anyway.
