One may ask: what is the energy of love? How could I feel it? The answers for those questions start all from within. We see hatred, we embrace it, and we get lost. We see anger, we embrace it, and we get lost. We see sorrow, we embrace it, and we get lost. We see negativity all around, we transform it in understanding, and we get conscious. Where is the energy of love? One may ask. It is just here and we could feel it the moment we get conscious about its existence.

It is time to see the world with our third eye of consciousness. It is time to see the environment we live in may be a huge source of negativity, with incredible atrocities one cannot see with naked eyes or have proof but sense. The darkness, the negativity, all manifested through feelings of anger, hate, sorrow, frustration, and so on. It is the ancient dance of dragons, the protectors of the fire, the energetic element, source of both life and death. It is on the foundation of negativity we experience suffering, and it is by understanding such foundation we see the light to end it.

The innocence of a child cannot see what suffering is at first. It is all a game to play, with a pure and open heart, with no intentions to harm but conditioned to do so, eventually. It is all unconscious, with no answers to questions asked. The innocence of a pure and open heart is something precious. It is that energy of love we can sense, keeping the hope for a better place to live, where love and compassion get spread all around. Consciousness is what bound us to that innocence, keeping our heart pure and in an open state. What a wonderful energy to feel within. What a wonderful energy to sense free of charge.

One may ask again: where is the energy of love? It is everywhere and in everything, could you not sense it? It is powerful, miraculous, unexplainable to an unconscious mind. The moment we start to feel it, it is the moment we know we embrace responsibilities, which remind us of a wonderful quote from Spiderman movies: “With great power comes great responsibility”. Responsibility of mind training. Responsibility of being non-judgemental. Responsibility of understanding. Responsibility of being kind and soft with ourselves and others. Responsibility to not harm our own life and the life of others. All those responsibilities are experienced, developed, enhanced, and mastered in the path of understanding states of suffering. The moment Buddha has achieved enlightenment, it was the moment he has achieved the full understanding of those responsibilities.

Is the achievement of enlightenment the secret of happiness? One may ask. There is a wonderful Brazilian song called “Era uma vez”, composed and interpreted by an amazing Brazilian artist named Kell Smith, which has the answer for that question through a powerful message. That message includes a wonderful wisdom that says we have to realise happiness lies along the path and not at the end.

Now I can sense the energy of love, one may say. The moment we sense the energy of love, it is the moment we realise it is all starting from within :-D.

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...
