No matter how harsh life is in the present moment, we need to find a purpose, a goal to pursue, a motivation to face anything before us. We need to realise and understand where the origins of anything we’re facing, dealing with, and experiencing are, enabling us to draw suitable strategies that prioritise our personal evolution while making little or no effort with useless situations caused by external sources we’ve no control of, and therefore, we’ve no power to end consciously and meaningfully. The hamster’s metaphor applies here: if we get to make effort in order to make no progress from an external perspective, then the effort we’re making should result in our own enhancement, getting stronger, wiser, and more resilient against the presence of darkness in the surroundings or any negative energy we’ve contact with in the environment we’re inserted into. If we get in a situation where progress is extremely low, and we turn into a hamster that isn't able to step into their own evolution, then we’re nothing more than experiencing a deep period of suffering, where we deteriorate ourselves while experiencing no progress from any perspective we can observe the situation, which includes our own perspective and relativity. 


When we start thinking about the hamster’s metaphor, applying it to our daily activities within the environment we’re inserted into, we start understanding that some of the harsh conditions, challenges, and difficulties we’re facing and dealing with have the origin somewhere on the outside, in a position we’ve usually no access or control. The hamster is totally dependent on his owner, living in a cage and with a wheel that, from an external perspective, leads them to make no progress at all. If hamsters have no consciousness, they’ll live their entire life both deteriorating and making purposeless effort leading towards nothing but reducing their lifespan.


We need to change our mindset in order to become nothing close to the aforementioned hamsters we were talking about in the last paragraph. Even when we face and deal with harsh conditions, challenges, and difficulties imposed by the environment we’re inserted into, which may lead us to live an extremely simple life even considering the level of knowledge we already possess, the most important thing to pay attention to is using the wheel we’ve available to step into our personal evolution, becoming stronger, wiser, and ready to trespass the barriers of the cage at the right moment, when we get well-prepared to face and deal with anything before us, no matter the circumstances.


Let’s remember: we don’t need a better wheel, equipment, or conditions. On the contrary, we just need to make the best of what we’ve at hand, and therefore, getting away from the cage-like situation we’re in at the present moment when it can offer little or nothing to contribute to our personal evolution. The more we realise that, the better we understand the beauty of the beautiful light we’ve deep within.


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 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...

  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...
