When we’re experiencing challenges and difficulties that make almost non-sense to be experiencing in the present moment, mainly when we’re more spiritually connected and mentally stronger than before, we start understanding there’re a lot of things we cannot control in the environment we’re inserted into. And the presence of darkness in the surroundings is one of them, which may cause a lot of troubles, challenges, difficulties, and any other type of obnoxious behaviour we need to be spiritually connected and mentally strong to observe, analyse, understand, face, and deal with properly. After many decades of observing life, keeping consciousness at hand to get back to the past to reevaluate experiences and what have been observed in different scenarios and moments of time, I’ve acquired a peculiar view that says the challenges and difficulties we experience in life have nothing to do with what we actually do or have done but who we are or were in the naked eyes of others. Such a view can clearly explain the damage of slavery and tyranny to the current society we’re part of. Thus, the more we realise that view, the better equipped we’re to understand and deal with what happens in the present moment.
Let’s ask the clear question to ourselves: Who are we in the present moment? It’s by answering such a question that we can draw a map showing what we could attain in life by our own efforts, putting aside the possibility of receiving opportunities or “gifts” that may change our life overnight. The other question we should ask ourselves is: What do other people see us and think who we’re? If we keep consciousness at hand we can find good guesses to that question, enabling us to draw leads that help understanding what happens in the present moment. Let’s imagine we’re a regular worker of a local store, who’s studying to enhance education in order to get a better job, and therefore, increase income to improve the current lifestyle. However, there’re people in the surroundings who don’t like us at all, i.e., they see us as a threat to them. As a consequence, they pose challenges and difficulties to whatever we do, no matter the circumstances. It’s like they feel threatened by our presence, making anything to get us out of mind in order to apply an inversion of control regarding a given scene they’re fabricating.
Sometimes the challenges and difficulties we’re experiencing make almost non-sense, which imply more an imposition experienced in the environment we’re inserted into rather than a consequence of what we’re doing in the present moment. Observing those non-sense moments enables our inquisitive mind to draw hypotheses that help observing, analysing, and understanding the situation through logical and rational thinking. And it’s by using logic and reason that we can start putting the pieces of the puzzle together in order to get closer to the true reasons concerning what we’re experiencing. Thus, we eventually find out that what we’re experiencing has nothing to do with the dependence of accepting beliefs or anything we cannot clearly explain the origins. It is deeper than that.
As a matter of keeping exploring the environment we’re inserted into, we need to keep consciousness at hand, observing, analysing, and understanding what really happens in the present moment. If we keep alert and conscious, we may find out the true reasons of what we’re experiencing, enabling us to get better prepared for anything coming next, no matter the circumstances.
The majority of the time is the jealousy of people in the surroundings that makes all the difference in the timing we get access to some social status and position. As a consequence, no matter what happens, if we can keep the loyal and honoured people closer, distance ourselves from dishonoured, dishonest, and deceptive people, the better. The hard truth is that we may find out no one is left in the environment we’re inserted into; not because there’s no loyal and honoured people left but because the probability we get in touch with those people is extremely low regarding the configuration of the environment we’re part of.
Let’s be strong and resilient to cultivate and nurture the beautiful light we’ve deep within, enjoying the simple things life has to offer.
Namaste 💓💓💓💓💓💓💓
