No matter how hard life can be there are always scenes where we are able to tap into our inner smile, resonating the reflection of happiness from the inside, the dancer, the singer, the performer altogether. We have to face obnoxious people with a strong posture but a soft figure. We have to experience unpleasant situations as something we should learn, lessons we should extract, something to never forget but, at the same time, incorporating only positivity, the flashlight of the darkside.

We have to avoid the continuous state of suffering, the act of grasping indifference, discrimination and humiliation as something we are afraid of experiencing another time.

The state of suffering means a scene to observe, investigate, and extract lessons from our relativity, our unique perspective. It does not mean we have to search for moments of suffering but being conscious to understand what is the knowledge we could acquire when those moments occur.

To tap into our inner smile, the happiness we have inside, is an available strategy we can use to face unpleasant situations, with negativity all around. The Buddha has mastered and utilised such strategy with finesse, as transmitted by great figures of Buddhism such as his holiness, the 14th Dalai Lama, and Jetsunma Tenzin Palmo.

A genuine smile differs from sarcasm and irony, as it has no intention to offend, being negative, or even to discriminate or humiliate another person. It is quite the opposite. The use of a genuine smile represents the power we have into ourselves to see the good in a person, even in the face of a negative act.
The power of a genuine smile represents our lightsaber of love with full power, which is able to attenuate the opposite source of energy derived from anger, mastering the dance of dragons with great compassion and kind gestures.

Namaste 💓💓💓💓💓💓💓

  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...

  When our purpose is genuine and crystal clear, there’s nothing that can stop us to attain that goal, not even a strong source of negativity surrounding us. The secret is always on our motivation to thrive, and therefore, the motivation to trespass any barrier imposed, no matter the circumstances. We can think of it as a serious game; a game of life where we’ve no additional spare lives, which implies that every move counts either towards our goal or backwards to somewhere else. When we get used to so much negativity in the surroundings, and start realising it was there for much longer than we may be aware of, we start questioning everything. It’s in this darkest time that we need to look deep within to realise and understand we aren’t what the outside may project about us but what we feel of getting totally aligned with our love nature and fulfilling the mission we’re assigned when we were born. Let’s forget about others and focus on making sure love spreads all around, even if, ...

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...
