“Don’t dwell on what went wrong. Instead, focus on what to do next. Spend your energies on moving forward toward finding the answer.” ~ Denis Waitley; American motivational speaker, writer and consultant.

“The longer we keep looking back in the rearview mirror, it takes away from everything that’s moving forward.” ~ Dan Quinn; American football coach.

What drives people in life, whether to self-destruction or to blissful success, is their emotions and not their thoughts; what this means is that each one of us has dreams and thoughts of success and all happiness, but wishing and desiring in the mind is not strong enough to motivate the human being to succeed, but emotions are powerful vibrations and they take over your whole body.

In order to create fruitful and wise emotions to stop regretting the past and suffering, or to move forward in our path, we must be vigilant and deeply understand that moving forward is not only the action but the intense emotional intention, and even though we might take our time in stepping forwards or achieving some goal, our intentions are of great value, not only to our success, but to the universe’s karmic field or field of our records/the events we are aiming to design for our lives.

Have in mind this, whenever you feel that you are not really progressing, or when you feel that nothing you do has meaning or progress; when you focus on your intentions, then you are strengthening your own progress, because progress in life is mostly the power you embrace within you, then what you create in your outer environment will follow what your inner world is.

Self-help life truths. The free mind of a human god!

Fully conscious.

“Holding on is believing that there’s only a past; letting go is knowing that there’s a future.” ~ Daphne Rose Kingma; psychotherapist and author.

In order to let go we must realize that we can’t live and experience the past if we are to focus absolutely on the present, such present which is the key to all happiness.

People distance themselves, perhaps unknowingly, from the strength to move on because of guilt and self-punishment; the ego loves to feel like a victim and blame you for whatever has happened in the past. There is a related or familiar disposition, a sickness really, in this process of the ego which brings misery, because pleasure and pain are two sides of the same coin, just like love and fear, we just choose to experience them differently.

21740339_364033140696721_2799202600123956361_n

This relationship between pleasure and pain is so intense and familiar to us that it is almost hazy to try and see the difference when our minds are experiencing past pains, and it is so intense that it takes much courage to summon the inner strength to get out from the dark abyss. But it helps to remember that this is just another great illusion by that master entity called ego; because, as we all know, the only reality is the essence that watches those thoughts of the past, that very essence which is the real you.

So, whenever you become aware that you are holding on to some regret, big or small, from the past, remind yourself that you are not stuck in that past, that you are the eternal present, and that you only need to forgive yourself and others by seeing beyond your own ego and its self-inflicted suffering.

The only reality: The micro-world.

Post author By thegodwithinblog
Post date September 18, 2017
No Comments on The only reality: The micro-world.

“Nothing rests; everything moves; everything vibrates.” ~ The Kybalion; Study Manuscript of the Hermetic Philosophy of Ancient Egypt and Greece, by Three Initiates.

So, energy vibrations is the reality behind all the macro-world you see and experience with your physical senses every day; even the chair or the lamp are not really solid, but it just feels solid to you, because compared to the trillions of small atoms and the vibrations within them, you are extremely gigantic, thus you cannot see or touch each individual atom of this micro-dimension.

Based on physics, namely the most famous Quantum Physics experiment, titled: “Double-slit experiment,” which is a demonstration that light and matter can display characteristics of both classically defined waves and particles; moreover, it displays the fundamentally probabilistic nature of quantum mechanical phenomena.

This means that vibrations and particles can affect each other; therefore, one time consciously they choose to be a wave and another time a particle, they are thus connected, one and the same, communicating all the time, creating conscious events and experiences.

But the interesting thing here is that this process belonging to the micro-world is affected by the watcher, by you; that says that you affect all events happening around the world, not merely by action but by just watching with any intention.

Let me be clearer then: When people do not let go of the past, an obsession, an idea, or a belief, this process acts one way, mainly negatively because the process senses the fear of holding on to the idea brooding in the stressed mind; however, when people do let go of the past, an obsession, an idea, or a belief, this process acts another way, mainly positively because the process senses the wisdom and the vanishing of stress in the mind.

The universe, or God, and its events are highly conscious, even far beyond what your physical senses know about being conscious. And this relates much to the Law of Attraction, where you unite intense vibrational thought with intense vibrational emotion, always without the killer vibration of fear, and create then the heartfelt feeling emanating into the universe; but soon you have to let go in order for it not becoming counterproductive, because your mind is everything and the universe knows this, it receives the vibration of either an obsessed mind or a confident and relaxed mind.

Events in life turn out positively or negatively depending on your unique ability to let go and clear your mind of all obsessions.
“We are shaped by our thoughts; we become what we think. When the mind is pure, joy follows like a shadow that never leaves.” ~ Buddha.

Self-help life truths. The free mind of a human god!

Substance of vibration…

“Then there is the prayer, not for things or for people, but to experience reality, God, which is also frequently answered; and there are still other forms of petitionary prayer, more subtle and devious, but nevertheless supplicating, begging and offering. All such prayers have their own reward, they bring their own experiences; but do they lead to the realization of the ultimate reality? Are we not the result of the past, and are we not therefore related to the enormous reservoir of greed and hate, with their opposites? Surely, when we make an appeal, or offer a petitionary prayer, we are calling upon this reservoir of accumulated greed, and so on, which does bring its own reward, and has its price. Does supplication to another, to something outside, bring about the understanding of truth?” ~ Jiddu Krishnamurti; philosopher, author, public speaker, and educator.

The effective and real prayer is not empty, repetitive words (do not matter which words and where they are from), but is the unity of strong thought and heartfelt intention as feeling; it is vibration what speaks to the universe, high vibration. The higher the rate of vibration, the higher the power of the prayer.

For example, when it comes to vibrational rate there is no higher vibration than spiritual vibration, and you can know this for yourself because the energy of the spirit body or consciousness can live in our body, travel out of the body, and even leave the body altogether when this physical body dies. The lowest vibration is matter, you know this for yourself because our bodies cannot penetrate other materials of solid matter.

But thought is vibration in between the spirit and matter; our conscious minds emit thought of high vibration which can create and penetrate matter, but this thought-form is of the body so when it dies changing conscious thought-forms die with it. Only the subconscious, Infinite Intelligence is eternal, is the reality.

Prayer for us humans is then a vibration of high rate which communicates to the energy of the universe, by the unity of thought and feeling–both of high vibrational rate. Faith then has to have no fear and no confusion when it comes to prayer. For how can faith be a little or half faith…?? It cannot exist where there is doubt or fear of any kind.

So when praying forget about the ritual of kneeling down, arm-crossing, reading from a book or repeating some ignorant mantra written by the imagination and ego of man. Think about vibration and the unity of your heartfelt desire (thought) with your passionate emotion (the noble and inspiring feeling).

The free mind of a human god!

Cosmic mind.

“You should not be carried away by the dictation of the mind, but the mind should be carried by your dictation.” ~ A.C Bhaktivedanta Swami; spiritual teacher and founder.

“If you want to find God, hang out in the space between your thoughts.” ~ Alan Cohen; motivational speaker, businessman, inspirational writer, journalist, spiritual educator, radio program host.

The space between the thoughts you have is the real you, because that space is the vast sea or the ether of the mind, and the thoughts popping up are the fish or bubbles in the sea. The space between thoughts is what serious meditation is all about, because that space hides the free-flowing energy of the universe, of consciousness, where there is no passion or desire, where there is no fear or anxiety, where all is just what is and where the present is found.

Meditators know that the space between thoughts is divine and powerful, is what frees them from all the bondage and mediocrity of human society and all mechanical thinking of the daily life. These spaces are where all the vital energy of the human being feeding your body cells and all your thoughts is located, and this is the free flow of Infinite Intelligence directly.

Human expression is fueled by these sea waters holding emerging thoughts, and so, whomever gets in direct communion with these sea waters or conscious ether between thoughts, experiences a rebirth which allows him or her to elevate his mind beyond the material and the ordinary.

This is understood only by experience and not merely by reading it.

“You have to find out what meditation is. It is a most extraordinary thing to know what meditation is–not how to meditate, not the system, not the practice, but the content of meditation. To be in the meditative mood and to go into that meditation requires a very generous mind, a mind that has no border, a mind that is not caught in the process of time. A mind that has not committed itself to anything, to any activity, to any thought, to any dogma, to any family, to any name–it is only such a mind that can be generous; and it is only such a mind that can begin to understand the depth, the beauty and the extraordinary loveliness of meditation.” ~ Jiddu Khrisnamurti.

Meditation is the flowering of the human spirit through inner attention on what is, it is nature at its purest, it is the place where man, or the form of man, does not exist because consciousness is free from thoughts and all ignorance.

Meditation gives the serious meditator strong self-discipline which works in all aspects of his life. Meditation boosts emotional and intellectual intelligence to understand the depth of life. Meditation gives one the confidence and strength to be unique and a light unto oneself and unto others.

Self-help life truths.

The right crowd.

“Be strong, be fearless, be beautiful. And believe that anything is possible when you have the right people there to support you.” ~ Misty Copeland; American ballet dancer.

“Have people by your side who has already been where you want to go or that are working to go in the same direction you are going in life.” ~ Unknown author.

Life is too short and too precious to waste it on the wrong people. Many times people just spend their time with the wrong crowd and mistreat the right one, specially in high school where one is finding him/herself and ignorance rules the mind of most interactions–I remember that it used to happen to me, and quite often I wouldn’t realize that I was choosing someone because of their appearance or popularity.

But as we grow up, we should direct our time and effort into making experiences with people that really care, not just people that act one way or is attractive somehow merely on the surface.

The goal must be to share our growth and experiences with people who resonate with us, with people that has our energy and that we can learn from. If you just spend time with people that is superficial or that is distanced from your inner persona as a spiritual being, how can you elevate your mind and grow as a person…?

We must know ourselves and inquire into ourselves to become a light of energy emanated onto others, and thus attract the right people, not only for spiritual growth but for mental and all financial growth and opportunities in our lives.

Poetry and prose from the heart. Stories to ponder.

“The Winged Spirit.”

“Poetry comes from the highest happiness or the deepest sorrow.” ~ A. P. J. Abdul Kalam; Indian president, scientist, and engineer.

The Winged Spirit

Times of grief and deep misery

Of dark days in past history,

Jackals and wolves ruled the night,

Wicked men of pain were the sight,

Streets of great pestilence and crimes,

Taxes, debts, of people suffering times;

Hate and fear were the ones in power,

Love and peace did not exist, nor the flower.

Broken I felt my heart in those moments,

My thoughts were miserable torments;

My abode, my wife and children were gone,

Light had left me and to dark I was drawn,

My dreams had fallen into the obscure abyss

Where I could not reach and there was no bliss.

I walked the path of no return one night of fate,

Of death I saw shadows summoning the gate;

Then the path was illumined at far sight on end,

Fear held me at first but then it became a friend,

There was an explosion of light which I did endure,

The love expanded, the warm peace was most pure,

I realized something extremely bizarre and out of place,

Time had vanished, I was within no common space,

Bubbles and ripples were all about my formless essence,

My mind sensed deeply the wonderful quintessence.

Then there was deeper realization and I came to see,

I had died in pain but was now reborn in profound glee,

The Winged Spirit in the midst of pain and turmoil,

Ready to advocate truth and all men’s suffering foil.

My losses were then met with wisdom and true heart,

My fear and anger, misery and frustration had part.

The game

Illusions are about us and all the time emerging,
Thought-forms and mediocre ideas without purging,
Men and women experience ambition in the mind,
They constantly plot all selfishness most blind.

Regarded I the coin of all treasure, the shiny thing,
I labored constantly like a puppet on a string,
Hurt was disguised as purpose, love was not there,
Misery was disguised as passion, stress I couldn’t bear.

Fleeting pleasures, incoming pain, I lived confused,
Society’s schemes, man of ignorance, I was used;
There was a brilliant light I couldn’t see at first,
Madness possessed my form, beyond cursed.

Love had been my savior then and it took time
To stop all anxiety and experience The Sublime,
For I elevated to the paradise of mental peace,
Because she found me the illusion did cease.

Realized then I was the pawn of the crude,
As the servant to the rich and powerful glued;
One lives as a puppet every day of his life,
I had awakened, cut the cord with a knife.

The game is thought by the ignorance of humanity,
Everybody desires happiness but cannot see vanity;
Love is the answer and the deepest connection,
Of the poisonous illness in life is the grand injection.

Self-help life truths. The free mind of a human god!

Prime.

“May your time in and with Nature, lead you to yourself.” ~ Native American proverb.

“Animals share with us the privilege of having a soul.” ~ Pythagoras.

Love is the only universal constant. Remember that this love essence is not the love most people know, the love of the flesh and the thought; no, this love which is the universal constant goes beyond all this, because it is what permeates every thing and any thing, and because it is what connects us all–Blacks to Whites, Catholics to Buddhists, Muslims to Americans, Swedish to Argentinians, Mexicans to Canadians, criminals to normal citizens, lovers to haters, humans to rocks, animals to air, chairs to tables, light to dark, and all in between (whether you consider it alive or not all is energy, Oneness).

21369492_361448470955188_5039290144399066768_n

When someone truly accepts this universal love, not just with his mind seat of concept and all illusion from the ego, but with his whole being–his heart, mind, cellular composition, behaviors–then this person starts to see the invisible but very intense spirit of Oneness that links everything together, so that person starts a process of transfiguration from inside his being, and beauty and great wisdom takes over him, become him.

Life is the primordial unity, Nature constant, universal Oneness, and it can only be felt intensely if you allow yourself communion in silence with yourself, with your mighty and wise subconscious, Infinite Intelligence, with patience and self-love, with character and confidence in yourself and in the connection you yourself have with every thing and any thing around you.

But you must make an effort to control your anger, your opinion, your judgements of difference in your mind towards all which surrounds you (everything that is breathing or not); for Oneness, true connection with all, can only be felt if you avoid the poisonous influence of your own ego separating everything all the time, making labels and concepts to divide life all the time, and also if you see the love or primordial essence linking us all as one.

This is ultimate wisdom which shall give you all the strength you need to elevate your mind, body, and spirit to heights of bliss you never before knew.

Self-help life truths. The free mind of a human god!

The most powerful engine.

Post author By thegodwithinblog

No Comments on The most powerful engine.

The mind of the human being is ruled by duality–i.e., happiness and misery, pain and pleasure, success and failure, sex and celibacy, peace and violence, accepting and rebelling, real love and the mere attraction of two bodies, and so on and so forth. This duality is what makes physical life worth experiencing with all its ups and downs like a roller coaster.

Imagine what life would be like without challenges or without sadness to learn from, to raise ourselves above mediocrity. No, it wouldn’t exist. True happiness in this physical life is known once you know misery or overcome suffering.

When the baby suffers the pains of traveling from the nice womb to the outside of the mother, he starts realizing that there is a new world to discover; in his own way, he is filled with joy and amazement. When he was in the womb, he was already in duality, because he felt misery and happiness as well; when the pregnant mother became sad or entered into arguments that affected her, the baby or fetus inside felt pain; when the mother had a foot massage and was surrounded by love, the baby felt warm love and happiness. (Although the baby or fetus did not know the mental concepts of happiness and misery, because his conscious mind was not formed yet since the conscious mind is formed mainly by the full physical senses, but he felt the natural emotions that tied him to the mother).

13087497_991469280934342_7762408034270852382_n

This is to say that to understand the strength you really have within you, you must know and experience pain, welcome it and do not try to avoid it or run away from it. As a wise grown up you walk your journey in life with this duality in your mind, your ego is powerful like for the rest of us; however, you have the capacity to understand pain when you feel it, so then learn to accept it, and become one with it, because you experience life at its fullest by understanding its ups and downs clearly.

See, the problem that most people have and do not understand why they have it in the first place, is lack of comprehension on duality, pain and pleasure, happiness and misery; and this comes about because they just experience life on the surface, they just live their own life as it comes, there is no understanding of why things happen and of why they feel what they feel.

This is just cruising by and letting the waters of the sea rock your boat and toss you here and there in danger of losing your course and drowning. You must guide the boat or ship with a mighty engine, with mighty understanding only the wise possesses. Because to elevate your own mind and reach that state of conscious bliss, you must become wise and embrace pain to be strong and confident.

Self-help life truths. The free mind of a human god!

The harmonious.

“Life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes. Don’t resist them, that only creates sorrow. Let reality be reality. Let things flow naturally forward in whatever way they like.” ~ Lao Tzu.

“You are always a student, never a master. You have to keep moving forward.” ~ Conrad Hall; American cinematographer.

Life does not just happen, but it is created with a purpose by this universal essence behind all forms of matter, behind all atoms and corpuscles of all substance. Human beings, the shell we see in the mirror and the thoughts we experience every day, are a product of this life-force or life-energy.

Things flow, nature follows its course, and the purpose behind it all is hidden from the rebellious human mind; and it so happens that resisting to this natural flow creates friction, such friction creates ripples of tension in us and around us, the natural flow gets interrupted, and we force vibrations to create negative outcomes we call dark energy, stressful and damaging events. And then most people say, “Life is not fair” or “Life just happens to be this way.”

Is life really unfair…?? Perhaps is our perception through our resisting of life that is not fair…?? Life is beauty in the eye of the beholder, and the beholder must be wise in this.

And we can never assume that we have mastered life or that we are always going to do well; life is change, life is challenges, even for the most elevated minds among us. Experiencing life must be unique and something we enjoy through curiosity and exploring ourselves, so we are bound to make mistakes; however, the worst mistake which can really hurt you is to follow the path or the life of another.
Love another but follow, invent, do your own life, assuming nothing and always moving forwards, embracing that the next step you take could be a storm or a sunshine. You never know

And if you expect always the best, then you won’t be prepared for the worst. If you do not train yourself in this way, your ego will get used to comfort, and when things go wrong then you will suffer greatly and blame life.
Physical life, its joys and pains, is a gift from the highest condition of existence, from the only real condition of existence.

Learn to appreciate it and align yourself with its movement of creation.
