In the middle of a dark environment, where we have little or no hope about the outcome we are experiencing in the present moment, there is also the power of the mind, the light growing within our heart to keep consciousness at hand. The only certainty we have is about the present moment, our breath, our capability to be alive, and the power of our own mind we can manifest to deal with an obnoxious situation through kind and compassionate attitudes. The more we keep the peace of mind, the more we can realise and understand we are in control of our own actions. The moment we realise, no matter what is happening on the outside, there is no negativity that could diminish the light we have inside, it is the moment we understand hiding and being afraid is nothing more than embracing suffering, accepting [out of understanding] any situation with no questions asked.


Believing in the self is understanding we are capable of facing anything, anytime, and anywhere, no matter the circumstances. It does not mean we would be perfect while facing something we have little, or no knowledge about. It means we have a wonderful capability of adapting, learning, observing, and understanding the relationships between the events, and the association of their occurrence with our own self. 


We may get afraid of the unknown. We may even get desperate about the possibility of stepping out of a comfort zone established in the present moment. We may embrace suffering but we have the choice to not become cowards of making suffering a way of life, entering in a deep state of inertia, taking huge doses of drugs, accepting everything out of understanding, and turning our back to life, implying seeing everything as disposable entities. The environment we are inserted into may be drowned under darkness, and its chaotic state, but we are human beings, we are thinking creatures, and we do not give up the light we have inside.


Our ancestors have shown they were not afraid of darkness, and by their symbol of resilience, and resistance against tyranny, slavery, dominance and control, they never turn their backs to life, keeping pushing love and compassion, the light they had inside, even during moments of oppression.


Buddha, Jesus Christ, Krishna, and any symbol of happiness, joy, love, and prosperity, represent the unlimited power generated by love. Each life is unique. Each life is important. Each life can contribute to the task of establishing a wonderful world to live. The moment we realise the importance of our own life to the universe, it is the moment we understand we may be tiny but the details make all the difference.


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...
