Our path may be nebulous, tortuous, uncertain. It may be with fog all around, with no clear sight to the light. It can be dangerous, unpleasant, or even dubious. There is only one thing that can make us succeed in such a hard and difficult journey: the power of the mind. With a conscious and focused mind, without intentions to harm others, everything is possible.

It is clear as crystal life has to be lived in the present. There is no known way to go back to the past to change the events there, and there is no known way to go to the future to see what comes before the happening. The actions and decisions we make are attached to the present, as much as impermanence is. There is no way to predict the outcome of a decision, as it depends on the state of the environment as well. It means, good decisions may bring awful consequences and a hard time in a negative, dark, and chaotic environment. In summary, we have to be prepared to face the consequences and stand up with a love and compassionate attitude.

As we already know, we are not able to control the actions of other people, and it is a blessing we cannot. Everyone has the right to make decisions, to choose, to say yes or no, and to accept, reject, question, be informed, and acquire knowledge about anything related to our personal life. Unfortunately, the world is not a fair place, and the opportunism and cruelty of human kind are everywhere.

We have to be conscious about ourselves, our strengths, and our weaknesses to be able to handle unfair situations as best as we can. It is not an easy task, and it requires a lot of brain and mind power to do so. We have to be brave to light our path, in order to diminish the fog in the surroundings, in the present moment we observe or take action.

The moment we realise darkness plays the devil’s role to make us step right into a trap, in a defenseless and unconscious posture, it is the moment we have to get conscious about the environment, and be prepared to face a giant with no more than our intelligence, with peace of mind to make decisions.

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...
