There are moments we may think we have time for nothing, but time is what we always have at hand as a conscious mind. There are moments we may think we are not able to face difficulties life presents to us, as we see no benefit to enroll into the journey of knowledge and self-enhancement, with no clear perspective about how long it takes to achieve peace of mind. There are moments we feel powerful, close to our love nature, and able to face anything with time as something present but not essential to what we would like to achieve. As we can see, the way we look into events happening in the perspective and relativity of our own life configures how we experience time, and what sensations such experience brings to the self. The moment we realise how to get the most out of time, it is the moment we understand acquiring knowledge is never a waste of it.


Acquiring knowledge is something we could associate, almost automatically, with formal education. It is more than that. Acquiring knowledge is a capability we have imprinted into our nature, and as human beings, anyone of us is capable of learning something new every single moment of our own existence. Evolution of the species depends on our capability to acquire knowledge, and the benefits its possession could provide to the self dictates the old, and ancient, popular sentence that says "Knowledge is power!".


By picturing power in the mind we may think about a demonstration of extraordinary abilities, which may be associated with an inexplicable, and mysterious source we could not understand properly, like the powers presented by fictional characters of superhero movies. However, the real world power is knowledge, and we have to use our consciousness to realise such a clear, but sometimes disregarded conclusion. 


Thus, by enrolling into personal enhancement through the practise of mind training, we are able to give time the proper attention it deserves, enabling the self to make progress towards the achievement of peace of mind, and the manifestation of the unique power each one of us possesses. We have at hand the power of mastering our own mind, and the uniqueness of it is what makes the beauty of life. Buddha, the enlightened one, has already disseminated through his teachings a piece of knowledge that says the moment we start the process of understanding our own suffering, preventing a step into it, it is the moment [more and more] we take a step right into the path of a meaningful life.


Everything we do that is close to our love nature makes the passage of time something we pay little or no attention to, and manifesting the beauty we already have inside is always a wonderful knowledge we are able to acquire, no matter how long it takes.


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...
