If you asked the Buddha a question about the corona virus with the government shelter in place orders, economy tanking, riots, looters, etc., he would tell you these words.

“I am where I need to be, at the right time, at the right place. I shape my world, give my life reality form. I see my thoughts and realize how my brain complains about what is. I am in control of my conscious choices. And I am beginning to see that people are where they are, and they are doing the best they know how to. I shall respect that and observe with wise discernment. My thoughts are powerful, and I move through my life powerfully. I know I affect my state of being. I am beginning to master that part of me. Yet what I do know is that this situation challenges all my learning. I will not attempt to explain anything. I will trust my intuition more. And allow my understanding to override my fears. It is also a message for me to rest more. Since the you-know -what is hitting the fan. Nothing I can do outwardly. Yet my inner work is what I need to ponder. This situation is all temporary like anything else.”
