It’s important we learn how to observe, analyse, and understand the environment we’re inserted into, identifying the illusions we’ve contact with while performing our daily activities. If we’ve contact with minds in suffering who consider themselves as members of a superior race, we need to be prepared to deal with obnoxious behaviours derived from that illusion of superiority. One of those obnoxious behaviours is enforcing another person to be submissive no matter the situation, which is actually a distortion of the Buddha’s teachings related to keeping silent in the face of a mind in suffering who’s eager to impose their terms. Minds in suffering who consider themselves as members of a superior race demand a submissive posture no matter the circumstances. It implies the observation of a clear fear of people interacting with one another in an environment where such imposition of the existence of a superior race takes place. As a consequence, we need to be prepared to deal with such a distortion derived from the slavery practice, which was a common and allowed practice in the past. The moment we realise that, it’s the moment we understand the difference between illusory and genuine happiness, which is a type of happiness that has no dependency on the environment we’re inserted into.
Observing the illusions we’ve contact with enables us to establish a clear view of the challenges and difficulties we need to face and deal with in the environment we’re inserted into. It’s extremely important that we keep consciousness at hand to understand what really happens in the present moment, enabling us to enhance our body and mind training in order to step into higher stages of our personal evolution.
With that clear view at hand we’re able to open a huge number of possibilities to enhance the self, implying the understanding of what kind of practice we need to be focused on in order to step into our personal evolution. Let’s remember: depending on the type of environment we’re inserted into, we need to be prepared for dealing with obnoxious situations caused by minds in suffering who consider themselves as members of a superior race.
Let’s cultivate and nurture the beautiful light we’ve deep within, establishing a strong yet peaceful posture to walk the path towards a meaningful life.
Namaste 💓💓💓💓💓💓💓
