The more we walk towards the light to enhance our peace of mind, the more we understand consciousness is a fundamental tool we have to keep at hand. With no consciousness we may fall into the trap of seeing anything from a negative perspective, recognising a glass of water half empty instead of half full, a source of water we have at hand but we cannot see useful at the moment. We may seek support in the external world while the fundamental change should be performed within, deep in the self. The journey of getting answers starts with the understanding that the more knowledge we possess, the more knowledge we need to acquire. We rebuild the sequence of events, searching for something we were not able to observe in a specific moment in the past. We establish correlations we could not establish before. We perform reasoning to the self, in order to find out a single piece of knowledge that may be able to connect everything, like the lost piece of a puzzle we are trying to solve. We become a forensics scientist to understand, and explain based on evidence, how we could put all that evidence together to give us directions, or in the best-case scenarios, a proof that leverages the knowledge we were not able to comprehend in the past. The moment we realise the most useful knowledge is in the details our unconscious mind is not able to see, it is the moment we understand why it is important to perform our mind training, and keep our consciousness at hand.


Half full, or half empty? It is just a matter of perspective and interpretation to describe what we see in a given situation we have just experienced. The moment we look at what has just happened from a suffering perspective, we may come to conclusions that everything was pointless, useless, and we could not extract a single piece of knowledge from what has just happened in the scene. We may enter the loop of self-discrimination, pointing the finger within our own self to make sure the pain would be felt at the worst extension, and with little or no comprehension. In a conscious perspective, otherwise, we are able to see any situation from an angle that says: ”What could I learn from what has just happened in the experienced situation?”. Useful and wonderful knowledge can be extracted as an answer, implying the cultivation of a non-judgemental, kind, and compassionate attitude towards the self.


Using only the unconscious mind we are not able to acquire knowledge but being conditioned to believe out of understanding, walking in a dormant state with no idea of what happens within the self, and in the surroundings. The moment we start awakening the self with consciousness at hand, it is the moment we start to free ourselves from the slavery regime promoted by suffering. The more we learn and understand, the less we are afraid to face and comprehend.


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...
