In the improvement of the self we workout to overcome our limitations and to enhance our strengths. We workout the within, we build up the foundations inside, and we prepare ourselves to stay at peace, with no propagation of negativity to the outside. We create light, we rise strong, and we produce the reflection of the inner beauty we have spent time to build.

The beauty of a monument such as the sacred Taj Mahal does not tell by itself how hard it was to be built. It takes time to complete such a memorable monument. The construction is not from day to night, and such a process is not as beautiful as the result. It is quite the opposite.

The improvement of the self thrives a path similar to the construction of a beautiful monument such as the sacred Taj Mahal. The process to achieve inner balance and inner peace is not as beautiful as the result.

In fact, while we are performing our mind training we get tested all the time, no matter how far we are in the construction of our internal fortress. The tests are part of the process to check the resilience of what we have already achieved, to ensure it is strong enough to support the negative charges it could be exposed to.

We have to consider the time we struggle with something as a moment of learning. It is a moment to get conscious about what is going on. It is a moment to revalidate values and assumptions. It is a moment we are on the field and under construction at the same time.

To be kind with ourselves is to understand the achievement of inner balance and inner peace do not come free of charge. They require putting energy in the building process, in order to move the wheel of progress.

It is with understanding we realise while under construction we are prone to make mistakes, and such mistakes are part of our growth, our personal enhancement towards the light.

Namaste 💓💓💓💓💓💓💓

The Neo-Nazi ideology is already deep in the roots of our current society, and as part of our culture and way of life, it’s dictating and conditioning what people see as normal behaviour in some social spaces. The simple act of gossiping with the goal of imposing additional difficulties in the life of another is a Neo-Nazi influence that passes almost unnoticed to our naked eyes. Stopping and diminishing those behaviours related to Neo-Nazi ideologies is the way of facing darkness and dealing with the negative conditioning we’re subjected to in a conscious and meaningful way. No darkness has power to obfuscate the natural light we’ve deep within. We just need to find a way of cultivating and nurturing our light to be influenced and conditioned by darkness no more. Suicide is not a way out. We need to learn how to live a meaningful life with the duty of facing darkness and dealing with its presence in the surroundings in a conscious and meaningful way. That’s the path towards our person...

  It’s important we get prepared to apply defensive manoeuvres any time, anywhere, and at any circumstances. Although the majority of us live in an environment where internal conflicts and wars are somehow not so close, dealing with dishonest, dishonoured, and deceptive people and behaviours requires us to be ready for facing and dealing with anything before us. That’s why it’s important to learn how to survive outside civilisation, where danger and threats aren’t limited to facing and dealing with minds in suffering. Inside a Jungle, a desert, or any other place where traces of civilisation are little or non-existent, the restrainment of resources (e.g., food and fresh water), as well as the presence of other animals in the surroundings (e.g., spiders, big snakes, jaguars, lions, tigers, and so on)---which may see us as a prey—become big concerns far more urgent than dealing with dishonest, dishonoured, and deceptive presence of minds in suffering in the surroundings. Thus, the mo...

  It’s extremely important understanding why we need to step into our personal evolution, enhancing the self until we get totally aligned with our love nature and the universe itself. Such a fully alignment enables us to move as a whole unit combined with everything that make us alive, removing the need of the self, i.e., we become part of something bigger that is walking towards the same direction, consciously and meaningfully. We can imagine it as a group of people who have attained the same understanding of suffering, and therefore, any conscious decision regarding how to deal with negativity would be the same. Unfortunately, darkness uses a distortion of such a concept, which instead of promoting the use of consciousness, enforces the conditioning of the unconscious mind, implying individuals presenting the same behaviour by the simple fact they’ve been conditioned to do so rather than attained the same understanding to perform a similar decision. This minor yet fundamental dif...
