Hello! I'm new here and I'd like to post a question that I've been pondering during my English class discussions--the question of physical limitations. So. Physical limitations. I'm not sure if people have already touched on this in other topics already, but might as well just throw this out here for now: What kinds of 'limitations' are there, really? Are physical limitations really limitations, and how can we get past these 'obstacles' to get ourselves on track and to get in control of our lives? In class we have talked about first Transcendentalism then the ideals it has that we can apply to our situations and more; I learned that all people have unlimited potential and that by being aware of this and believing that we can do it, what we want will come true. Which brings me back to my question--if so, then why are there physical limitations? Can't we just throw them away from our sight and get to what we want? Apparently in most cases this is not so. So what does this mean? I'd like to hear some replies~. Thanks for your time!
The physical world has physical laws that are very difficult or impossible to break. It takes more power or force of will (intent) to accomplish some tasks/deeds than it does others. Some prescribe to the idea of karma and/or that we have lessons that need to be learned on the physical plane before we are given or can manifest the necessary power to accomplish some goals. Growing a new limb to replace a missing one, for instance, is a very difficult thing to do. It may be that our plan for our self before incarnating was to learn how to deal with physical adversity and that is why we have the missing limb. Mostly (read entirely), the limitations we see are self created.
This is a very interesting topic. Physics holds certain laws to be fact. But at the same time the power of our thoughts has the ability to create. Perhaps our science is just very primitive and there is a great truth that we havent even begun to set foot on.
