Introduction
We actually bring certain tests upon ourselves, this is
surprising but true. Our normal idea of the tests is that they come to us
unexpectedly, in a moment’s notice without us being aware of them and without
us being able to avoid them. That idea is certainly true, I’m sure we have all
experienced one or another test small or large in that way. However there are
tests or certain situations that become tests all because we prepare them or
lay down the circumstances for them to unfold all by ourselves, well not
entirely by ourselves there is always the help of others.
The image above depicts the classical trial of the elements.
Foresight is Key
These types of tests can be avoided and diverted as they are
developing if we are smart enough and have enough foresight. We actually
prepare some of our temptations and difficulties by dabbling and by thinking
about such situations and the act of thinking about them tends to bring them to
us, even being scared of certain situations actually brings them to us.
Gaining Foresight
Foresight is best gained by looking into the future using
cause and effect. If we are aware of the way things currently are, we can then
project using the principle of cause and effect the future circumstances that
will involve us.
Conclusion
In our thoughts are the seeds of our future circumstances,
just think now and then if what we are thinking or hoping were to come true
what circumstances would unfold before us or actually around us with us being
right in the very middle of them. It is always good to take this into account
and use the future as a tool or a motivation to change the present.
