Who does possess knowledge? How could we recognise and understand what knowledge really is? Is knowledge something accepted by the majority or mastered by a given person whether they have formal education? Those are extremely useful questions we can use to realise what knowledge really is and represents, implying the understanding of why knowledge is something unique we can acquire just by the simple fact of living our life consciously and meaningfully. The natives of a given land are full of knowledge. A caring mother is full of knowledge. An ancient person is a huge source of knowledge, and that is why knowledge is something no one can take away from us, no matter the circumstances.


Knowledge is power, and experiencing such a power depends only on our own motivation for doing so. It’s through the power of knowledge that we can realise and understand the difference between the illusions we’ve contact with from the clear and vivid reality we’re able to experience when keeping consciousness at hand.


When the fictional character of Adam, the prince of Eternia, or Adora, the kidnapped princess of the same reign, shouts: “By the power of Grayskull!”, or “For the honor of Grayskull!”, respectively; What do you think they are referring to? Do you think they’re referring to something no one knows the origins of? Or, on the contrary, do you think they’re referring to a huge source of knowledge that only few people have full knowledge of, implying in the transformation of a high born prince, or a kidnapped princess, into warriors in charge of defending the reign against the forces of evil? The metaphor behind those wonderful characters is crystal clear: Knowledge is indeed a huge source of power, and that is why Skeletor and Hordack, the villains of both He-Man and She-Ra tv series, are always eager to possess the knowledge the forces of good already possess.


In real life that metaphor is vivid and valid. The more knowledge we possess, the more power we acquire, and therefore, the more responsibilities we’ve at hand to face and deal with anything aside from our love nature. We may have no sword of power yet we can transform ourselves into an honoured warrior who cares about life as the ultimate goal, walking the path towards a meaningful life no matter the circumstances.


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...
