It's important we learn how to defend the self in a conscious and meaningful way, choosing well and consciously the equipment more suitable for the moment of facing darkness and dealing with the negative conditioning we're subjected to. The difference between establishing a self-defence posture, and a brainless and unconscious mind experiencing a period of suffering is the attitude before an awful situation. We can learn it from observing buddhist monks, who master martial arts and the use of different types of equipment, yet exhibiting an extremely peaceful posture, which is resulted from years of performing their body and mind training. It's inspired by them that we've to learn how to defend the self in a conscious and meaningful way, remembering the most important rule of all time: caring about life as the ultimate goal.


What makes the difference is not the equipment we've at hand but how we use it to establish a posture aligned with our love nature, forming a symbiotic bond between our body, mind, and anything that has been utilised for doing good. It's then essential we create a body and mind connection with any type of equipment we've at hand, making it as part of our own body we can use to defend the self in awful and difficult situations.


We're much better and stronger than we can ever imagine. We can learn how to do extraordinary things, and becoming the best version of the self every single day is one of them. We can develop different martial arts styles, delving deeper into something suitable to our body, our mind, our current situation, and the path towards a meaningful life, which has been carved by the self.


We've the power at hand to become legends, and we just need to learn how to properly use the resources we've at hand, remembering the golden rule of using all knowledge and wisdom we've acquired to step into our personal evolution, defending the self against the presence of darkness when in the face of an attempt of harming the self or someone else we care about. It doesn't give us the rights of retaliation but the condition of being prepared for anything, anytime, and at any circumstances.


Namaste 💓💓💓💓💓💓💓

  Each step we perform towards our personal evolution reveals a priceless piece of knowledge that helps us face darkness and deal with the negative conditioning we are subjected to. One of the most important Buddha’s teachings applied to any moment is not being too hard on the self. The more we realise that we are not perfect and we always have something we can do better, the more we understand how astonishing and resourceful we are when relying on our consciousness and the unlimited energy of love we can generate from the inside out. We are awesome, no matter what we hear from the outside. If we embrace the negativity we have contact with we end up contaminated by such an intoxicating energy, experiencing suffering as the result of the manifestation of negative emotions. We need to be brave and tough, using all the negative criticism as a conscious motivation to become a better version of the self every single day. We need to get prepared for the escalation of negative intentions and

  Once upon time we need to think about the challenges and difficulties we are facing, aligning our body and mind training to deal with variations we may encounter in different environments we are either passing through or inserted into. We need to adapt as fast as we can to something we cannot see, something that is working in the shadows to deteriorate the surroundings and all connections we may be able to establish in the present moment. It’s by achieving such clarity of mind that we are able to get better prepared to face darkness and deal with the negative conditioning we are subjected to. We may consider darkness as an ancient society promoting chaos and terror all over the world. The majority of the time, when blindfolded by our own suffering, we are not able to see clearly what happens in the surroundings. Therefore, we cannot draw suitable strategies to deal with obnoxious situations derived from something we cannot see clearly through the lens of our naked eyes. Therefore, we

  We have the potential to be connected with nature, which gives us a huge amount of energy we can use in the benefit of our own evolution. It is only by connecting to all living beings, establishing an intrinsic and symbiotic bond, that we can understand the unlimited power we have within. Such a power is the energy source of our own existence, the fortress of the meaningful reign we call mind; the foundation of our strength, resilience, and robustness while facing darkness no matter the circumstances. The more we realise the presence of such a power in all living creatures, the more we understand the unlimited extent of our own capabilities. Life is what allows us to walk through the environment we are inserted into. It is the priceless gift we have received, in which the duty to care for is the ultimate goal. Facing darkness is nothing more than an exercise of reaching the aforementioned goal, protecting it at any cost. It is by connecting to nature that we can establish suitable co
