Within the castle of suffering, everything is possible. Every action is valid and no justification is required. We are conditioned to suffer, and we are conditioned to attract others to the same destiny, to be slaves of suffering. We urge to spread the advantages of the castle and the luxuries it provides. However, there is always a price, and the price of suffering is a precious life. If we get conscious to decide, we would find noone inside.
Suffering is something we get used to. It is part of our life and it is part of our cycle of existence. For some, it is a way of living. The more the suffering, the more we need someone to deal with it, and by the use of the easiest ways possible. It is like to be a blindfolded king in a reign of suffering. Problems are solved by force, and by singular decisions: death or life sentences within the walls of the castle. Simple, and with no worries about.
When a blindfolded king takes off his bandage and opens his eyes, the damage is already disseminated. There is no way to go back and undo what has been done. However, a wise king is able to forget the negative past and to embrace a meaningful present. Those whom benefit from suffering will be the opposition of his awareness. They will do whatever possible to put a blindfold in your majesty, no matter the costs.
The profit of suffering cannot be broken by force but by love. The leverage of love may be weak, and easily broken, by the advantages and luxuries offered by suffering. It is our personal duty to decide what we want to do with our life. The options are many, the destiny are few.
When we realise what we want for our life, and which kind of life we want to live, we have to be prepared for the consequences of our decisions.
Nothing harmful brings peace of mind. Violence, torture, vengeance, all paths of suffering with meaningless end.
To live a life based on love and compassion has consequences. If we are still within the castle, protected by its walls, we have to face the resistance of suffering, and the constant pressure to break our love bound. If we decide to leave the castle, and to be on the road, we may face difficulties and search parties to bring us back.
The decision is always ours, and we have to be prepared to face whatever the suffering cycle brings to us.
Namaste 💓💓💓💓💓💓💓
