There are moments when we get just impressed about the peaceful state of mind we have achieved, that we need consciousness to remember the self: it was a milestone not a permanent state. Instead of letting negative energy get deep in, being hard about the maintenance of such illusion of permanence, consciousness brings clarity of mind to understand every single peaceful state has a next level. The motivation to keep moving is ours, as it is the benefit of such achievement. It is wonderful to be able to face a challenge through a peaceful state, but it is awesome to keep moving and preparing the self for the unknown, and the uncertainty about what we need to face afterwards. The focus is in the present but every achievement helps the understanding of our future self.


Focusing in the present moment does not mean we never think about the future, and the challenges we need to face next. It means we have to practise our mind training in order to not get distracted, and disturbed, about things that have not happened yet. Making plans is a good example of thoughts about the future, which require actions in the present moment.


Putting our mind into the planned future does not help achieving the intended goal. It is much better to work in the present moment, like we have no future plan to worry about. We focus on the task we have at hand, and on the challenge we are facing. The results we achieve drive the self to the next step, which may fit the planned course, or has to be adapted to the current situation we are experiencing.

Expectation does not meet frustration if we are aware about what we are doing in the present moment, and what the importance of such actions is for the enhancement of the self. The outside does not need to know, and the inside requires understanding to follow the path.


Not every bright result is achieved through a bright path. Buddha, the enlightened one, has already disseminated a teaching about that. While understanding our own suffering we are facing darkness with the source of light we have inside. The environment is dark, the path is hard, but the result is an astonishing representation of our love nature, the creature of light we are meant to be.


Namaste 💓💓💓💓💓💓💓

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...

  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...

  It’s extremely important understanding why we need to step into our personal evolution, enhancing the self until we get totally aligned with our love nature and the universe itself. Such a fully alignment enables us to move as a whole unit combined with everything that make us alive, removing the need of the self, i.e., we become part of something bigger that is walking towards the same direction, consciously and meaningfully. We can imagine it as a group of people who have attained the same understanding of suffering, and therefore, any conscious decision regarding how to deal with negativity would be the same. Unfortunately, darkness uses a distortion of such a concept, which instead of promoting the use of consciousness, enforces the conditioning of the unconscious mind, implying individuals presenting the same behaviour by the simple fact they’ve been conditioned to do so rather than attained the same understanding to perform a similar decision. This minor yet fundamental dif...
