The moment we realise we are inserted into an environment where overcoming suffering is against of the values we observe all around, it is the moment we understand why it is so hard to do it with little, or no resources to keep moving, embracing the impermanence of the universe by changing from place to place, while enhancing our peace of mind. It is clear as crystal the conflict between what a peaceful mind would like to achieve, and why such an achievement could not be performed in an environment where human beings are still being considered slaves, and treated as the big enemies because they have achieved high levels of consciousness about what is really happening in the surroundings. The moment we realise it is almost impossible to keep feeding the self even if we enrol on Buddha's path to live for enhancing our understanding about suffering while depending on external donations, it is the moment we understand we have no choice but to move as soon as we can to an environment where our fundamental rights are secured.


It is in the universal declaration of human rights the basic conditions for a human being to live, and the different variants of freedom are in the list. We have freedom of speech, which allows the self to speak freely about his/her thoughts; freedom of movement, describing the rights granted to a person that says we can move from place to place as we please; and freedom of thoughts, as we can think [in theory] anything with no worries about being censured and prosecuted. The values presented in the universal declaration of human rights represent the values Buddha has started to experience while he has enrolled in his journey of understanding suffering, the moment he has stepped out of the palace. It is then clear as crystal that exploratory cultures offer no condition for a human being developing his/her own capabilities, and Buddha has just realised that the moment he has looked to the slaves living inside the palace.


If we are inserted into an environment where our consciousness gets totally sure about what happens in the surroundings, we have what we need at hand to decide whether to move from the possibility of being explored and treated as a slave inside a palace. The only thing we could do against such an exploratory culture is moving away from it, searching a place where we could develop our sense of community side by side with those who care about life, while walking the path towards a meaningful life.


The moment we realise the enhancement of the self is our duty, which has nothing to do with supporting the suffering we have contact with all around, it is the moment we understand being explored as a slave poses a challenge to the walk towards the achievement of our own enlightenment.


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...
