Dealing with uncertainty, and any kind of negative energy we have contact with, requires both body and mind training. We perform our body training to be able to cope with the endurance imposed by the environment, boosting our immune system to establish strong defences against external micro and nano threats. We also perform our mind training to enhance our awareness and clarity of mind, enabling consciousness to observe, recognise, and understand why and how we can deal with darkness and its associated suffering. We need to be prepared for anything, including facing the fear of being alone in the dark.
Fear is a mind trick applied to perform the negative conditioning of our unconscious mind, creating a need for seeking support on the outside, trusting more the other than the self. That is a huge mistake we commit while dealing with our own suffering. It does not mean we must solve everything alone, with no help from another. It means that external sources are a complement of what we do on our own, which involves caring about life, and cultivating the love nature we have inside.
The moment we blindly step on a path we are following, based on beliefs rather than understanding, it is the moment we throw a coin to the air hoping to experience soft versions of suffering. We embrace illusions we have contact with, with little or no effort to understand them, in order to keep the self on the dream of a comfortable life. The loop of suffering remains active, and we do not notice it.
Each one of us knows what challenges most the self every single day. Each one of us observes life from a unique perspective and relativity, being difficult to either share or compare it with another. In the middle of the duty of dealing with our own suffering, the frustration of not being able to share our unique perspective and relativity becomes vivid. That is why understanding comes to save the day. When we realise we do not need to share what we do not understand yet from sources that only we have access to, it is the moment frustration vanishes itself, being replaced by a powerful and strong will. Loneliness is no problem anymore, becoming the solution for most of our difficulties and challenges. Instead of dealing with the fear of being alone, now we have to deal with the pleasure of walking the path alone, which reduces the problem associated with suffering to a more tractable one.
No one has the power to see the world from our own perspective and relativity. Therefore, being soft with the self and another is something we need to cultivate within. Kindness and compassion are the products of the beautiful light we have inside, establishing the care about life as the foundation of our own existence.
Namaste 💓💓💓💓💓💓💓
