Obnoxious behaviours will not be vanished if we embrace the negative conditioning we have contact with, or are subjected to, while stepping into a period of suffering. They will still be in the surroundings but hidden, masked, dressed in different forms, and most important, mixed with illusions fabricated by a conditioned mind. What choice do we have between living a life as a slave of our own suffering, or facing darkness all along no matter the circumstances? I have chosen to face darkness and the decision is always personal. It is only by facing darkness that we can achieve higher levels of peace of mind, while walking the path towards a meaningful life.
You may disagree with me but every single time someone threatens me, or puts a card on the table that leads to a path of slavery, my answer is always rejecting the influence of the threatening speech, negative actions, negative conditioning, or acts of torture leading to slavery. I always prefer personal growth, mind sharpening, body strengthening, and feeling the passage of time through the acquisition of knowledge and wisdom. By doing that, I feel that the passage of time only increases the feeling that no army of minds in suffering, worshiping darkness, is capable of influencing myself to join their awful, chaotic, and deceptive cause. I prefer to live my entire life facing darkness than kneeling to suffering, or anything that has negative emotions in the foundations. We are not meant to be slaves of our own suffering. On the contrary, we are meant to understand suffering, being aware of the environment we are inserted into, identifying what challenges and difficulties we have to face when the suffering we are dealing with is on the outside.
The decision of facing darkness puts a target on our back. Everyone worshiping darkness would try to put us down. That is why we need to learn how to cultivate and grow our light through knowledge. The typical sentence we may hear from minds in suffering is that they will destroy our entire life if we do not give up. Let them try, and keep trying for a lifetime if they desire to.
The moment we realise the magnitude and extension of the unlimited power we possess, it is the moment we understand the alignment and manifestation of our love nature are the antidotes against darkness.
Namaste 💓💓💓💓💓💓💓
