I enjoyed his wisdom and humor for about an hour, during which the moderator asked him about the different levels of consciousness, the connection between mind, brain and spirit, and a bunch of other questions I would have loved to record. I didn’t want it to be over yet, however, it was time for the general public to participate. I needed to ask my question, but there were so many people, bolder and more determined than me to get his attention. I had to ask the question, because I have never had the guts to raise my hand in public to speak up, and this was a personal challenge that I had resolved to overcome.
He came down the stage and started answering the questions of people like me, admirers, followers, spectators and people hungry for knowledge, for wisdom, for answers. I had my question ready, but others got his attention from all over the place. I didn’t lose the hope as other people were posing their questions. Richie kept bugging me and urging me to stand up and ask. I was scared, but he was right, I didn't want to freak out. I felt paralyzed when Chopra said “two more” and he responded to a guy on the upper floor. It was my last chance. My heart was beating hard and my cheeks were on fire. I stood up, raised my hand and close my eyes for half a second. When I opened them, I saw he was looking at me, pointing at me, smiling at me. He picked me for the last question, amongst all those people…! I felt nervous and my excitement could be noticed by everybody around me. I thanked him and asked “Assuming that we are part of a universal plan, and that everything happens for a reason… How much power do we have to change that plan by using the Law of Attraction?”
Looking at me, he first acknowledged the importance of my question -which made me feel good and confident instantly; then he explained that only if we are unaware and live in a deterministic world, we don’t have any control of what happens to us, and therefore we are part of a plan that we haven’t created. But if, instead we live in awareness we can create our own destiny. He also mentioned the importance of uncertainty, because in the unknown lies a universe of infinite possibilities, since it is the field of pure potentiality. He told me that I need to wake up every morning and say “Please God, give me more uncertainty,” because uncertainty makes us creators -as if I hadn’t had enough of that already... He was asking me to embrace uncertainty in a moment of my life in which that was the least desired thing for me. According to him, the connection between what exists and what doesn’t exist is “desire.” If we have a desire we are meant to fulfill it and we are creating our future. He gave me his wise advice, keeping eye contact for a few minutes, and after that he disappeared behind the stage.
A few people congratulated me on the way out about my question, and I felt good, or maybe that was my Ego feeling like that, but for me this was a breakthrough moment, like the one I had with Tony Robbins in August when I walked on fire without getting burned (but this a story I will talk about later).
