What is Ego? What does Ego represent to us? Are we capable of genuinely answering that question? Let’s think a bit about that through a given example. What should we do if we see in front of us two people we don’t know physically attacking one another, a person we’ve no idea who is being sexually harassed, or a child we know nothing about being abused? The conscious answers for all those questions are simple but are we sure we practise the right actions we’ve a personal duty of doing when in the face of the aforementioned awful and disgusting situations? The moment we realise what the right actions are, and what we do when dealing with any type of negativity before us, it’s the moment we truly and genuinely understand what Ego really is and represents in society since the beginning of time.


It’s easy to be inert and doing nothing when observing something wrong before us. It’s also easy to pretend we’ve seen or listened to nothing, and therefore, become unspoken concerning something that just has happened. However, is it the right thing to do for the situation we’re either observing or experiencing? Welcome to what Ego does to a person experiencing deep periods of suffering. Let’s remember that being silent, inert, unspoken, or care free of anything happening before us is not always the right thing to do. It could be the Ego speaking out loud and saying: if my life isn’t involved, there’s nothing to do about anything happening on the outside.


If we cannot consciously differ right from wrong, it gets extremely difficult to realise and understand what Ego really is and represents. We need to keep consciousness at hand, perform our body and mind training, and attain higher levels of peace of mind in order to step into higher stages of our personal evolution.


Next time we get a difficult, awful, and disgusting situation before us, let’s think about the influence of Ego on our actions, consciously and meaningfully.


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 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...

  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...
