Only One Important Question

According to Einstein
"There is Only One Important Question; Is the Universe Friendly?"
Another way to put it...
Do you see the Big Bang and the subsequent unfolding of the Universe in all
it's facets as a positive event? A negative event? Or neutral perhaps?
This is your interpretation, your worldview and pervades your entire life.
Look into this question and you have found your starting point for your life
and the way you live.
Then realize that you are choosing to see the Universe this way.
Consciously or unconsciously you are choosing to see this way every day.
I go back to my favorite quote from the movie "Solaris",
Kelvin's friend says to him,
"There are no answers,... only choices."
Starting off my mediation today
"If you center yourself in non-being...
When your mind is transparent to the depths
and your words and actions are one,
the whole world becomes transparent."
(from Stephen Mitchell's "The Second Book of the Tao")
Friendly!
Maybe even Joyful!
