The Law of Non-Resistance

In this chapter, Florence Scovel Shinn teaches non-resistance as a powerful spiritual law. It's based on the principle that nothing on Earth can resist an absolutely non-resistant person, just as water (which is completely non-resistant) wears away rock. True non-resistance means refusing to fight, be resentful, or react negatively to people or conditions. Instead, bless them with goodwill. Resistance creates inner torment and perpetuates problems, while non-resistance dissolves them, brings peace, and allows good to flow. She illustrates this with stories of people who succeeded by becoming impersonal, sending love, and remaining undisturbed until harmony was restored. Have a listen!
