I think the "Close one eye, step to the side." Refers to changing our perspective but then doing something that brings it back to the way it was before, or stepping to the side. In doing this you are avoiding the alternative perspective. It could be advice like "Hey why care to understand, just step to the side" or stating that's what humans do and are incapable of completely understanding things because we can't look at things from other perspectives.
"This step will allow the universe to run it's course" could refer to stepping to the side, or going back to your perspective and not trying to understand would be better.
