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

The taming of the brute.

“In the age of technology there is constant access to vast amounts of information.  The basket overflows; people get overwhelmed; the eye of the storm is not so much what goes on in the world, it is the confusion of how to think, feel, digest, and react to what goes on.”  Criss Jami; American poet, essayist, author, and existentialist philosopher.


“Until you realize how easily it is for your mind to be manipulated, you remain the puppet of someone else’s game.”  ~ Evita Ochel; consciousness expansion teacher, author, optimal health and wellness expert, holistic nutritionist, yoga and meditation teacher, and web TV host.


 

When we experience anything at all, our minds create thoughts regarding that experience; however, our task and challenge is to choose those thoughts with wisdom, thus lead ourselves to happy outcomes.

But, having said that, most of the population of the world are ignorant of this, even though they can be good people they let thoughts randomly guide them, thus create the outcomes in their lives; and this is so because the ego lives in the reaction of the ignorant.

Real-knowledge-is-to-know-the-extent-of-ones-ignorance.-500x471

In order to tame your own ego, control and choose your thoughts, so people, events, and the world do not control you, you must be fully conscious and aware of your reactions, you must not react but wait, give time to information to be analyzed, gather facts and involve the wisdom of your heart.

If you only react based on knowledge your ego gives you in the moment, you might just fall prey of your stubborn ignorance.

 

True intelligence to decide does not live in the mind, because in the mind you only find facts and data your physical senses gather; and precisely this most of the time may trick you.

True intelligence is absorbed by your heart through Infinite Intelligence; and there is where you find wisdom to make big decisions.

True intelligence is the one you must use daily, and true intelligence comes from the Infinite Mind, known as the subconscious mind.  The subconscious works through the silencing of your mortal mind/your ego/the brute thoughts popping up all the time.

When your heart is pure, or without the influence of your ego and the beliefs and reactive thoughts it forces upon it, then you can listen to this Infinite Intelligence or subconscious; thus, patient and wise communion with your heart and its whispering give you that mighty insight you need into any decision you make.

Be patient, don’t react, wait for the heart, do not follow simply your impulsive ego.

Live free.

“Misery loves good company, so if you are surrounded with drama, gossip, and fools, you may want to consider that you are presently at risk of becoming one of them.”  ~ Bryant McGill; social entrepreneur, activist, and motivational author.


In order to experience unique growth in life as the individual you are, there must exist harmony and peace in your daily living; but if you are always surrounding yourself with drama and all sorts of nonsense, either from family, friends, or society overall, you will not grow and elevate your mind in wisdom and vision to realize your dreams and goals.

a250bf9ed124e506c46922b9e1005b64

Allow your attention to shift to themes, news, conversations, people which can help you in your individual journey; all things which can empower you and give you a deeper understanding of life.

This is indubitably self-love, because what you are doing is caring and giving attention to your true self and to relevant data and positive energy to push you forward and help you create your own path in life.

Remember, absolutely no one can do this for you, but only you can.

So dare to step out of your ego and its comfort, choose the people around you, or watch carefully the time you give to this people, it doesn’t matter who they are and how much they say they love you.  Is about self-love. 

It is about you and your growth in life, not about other people.


So, pay attention to this, worry about your own individual progress.

Opposite to what religions teach nowadays, true spirituality is individual growth, true spirituality is self-love.  This is the real teaching of Jesus, Buddha, Lao Tzu, Muhammad, etc., beyond all religious poison and biased translations of scriptures.

Beyond it…

“Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and right doing there is a field.  I’ll meet you there.  When the soul lies down in that grass, the world is too full to talk about.”  ~ Rumi; Persian Sunni Muslim poet, jurist, Islamic scholar, theologian, and Sufi mystic.


“Birth and death are events in time and space.  There is nothing but Life.”  ~ Dr. Betty Kovacs; scientific philosopher, businesswoman, and author.



Life is eternal, wise and ubiquitous, and the fact that Life itself branches out and offers these physical aspects which provide a rich experience for us to develop, springs a duality and creates birth and death; however, because physical life is just a small aspect or branch of Eternal Life, then it means that whatever–birth and death in this case–happens in the physical is really just an entrance and an exit.

22814348_380333145733387_5546634898382592379_n

See it as doors which we use to enrich the experience of Eternal Life, because in order for you to understand birth and death, thus in order to dissipate all fear and anxiety, you need to see this as doors into rich and wise experience.

Hello and Goodbye, in this sense, does not exist; but, however, only the mortal mind/the ego experiences it as hello in birth and goodbye in death.


So, birth and death are two concepts generated by the physical senses; because the duality of this life in the ignorant mind of man creates fear and the birth and death of superficial beauty–i.e., not true beauty, for it is bound to time and space.

There is then no greater deception than this, for this deception poisons the mind and causes all kinds of fears, it engineers a great distance between you and happiness, it mars the eternal beauty of Eternal Life, and it distorts reality of what this life period really is and how you should live it.

The bright one.

“Let us always meet each other with smile, for the smile is the beginning of love.”  ~ Mother Teresa.


“Lighten up, just enjoy life, smile more, laugh more, and don’t get so worked up about things.”  ~ Kenneth Branagh; Irish actor, director, producer, and screenwriter.


Scientists at the University of Cardiff in Wales say, “It would appear that the way we feel emotions isn’t just restricted to our brain–there are parts of our bodies that help and reinforce the feelings we’re having,” says Michael Lewis, a co-author of the study. “It’s like a feedback loop.”

23032659_380286582404710_3232817582482478127_n
When you smile then certain muscles trigger a chain reaction of other tiny muscles and chemicals throughout your body, they have great effect on the way you feel; thus, the way you feel makes you see life differently–i.e., if you feel sad, life is sad; if you feel happy, life is happy.

You create your own reality, you mold your perceptions, thus your behaviors, your opportunities.

Seems rather simple and unimportant sometimes, but the act of smiling is the most important expression of our soul.  See, the soul, or our spiritual essence, is always trying to free itself from the bondage of human negativity or from the stressful ego; so, the soul is always looking for positive intentions, thought, actions to be manifested by our humanity which can embrace the purity of the soul, which is love and inner beauty.

But, quite often, the soul gets buried and stifled by and under ignorant and misguided thoughts and actions.

A simple smile then lights up the world because it changes the way we feel and thus experience events in the world. An honest smile also communicates trust and connection to the ones around us.


Remind yourself that to experience happiness and success in what you desire and do in life, you must start by taking little steps, and you begin by smiling every day even if things do not go as planned.

Smiling will remind you that you need to be brave enough to remain positive even in the not so pleasant situations.

The eternal dance.

“True happiness is… to enjoy the present, without anxious dependence upon the future.”  ~ Lucius Annaeus Seneca; Roman Stoic philosopher, statesman, dramatist, and humorist.


“The meaning of life is contained in every single expression of life. It is present in the infinity of forms and phenomena that exist in all of creation.” ~ Michael Jackson.


Happiness is not something esoteric and mysterious, but happiness is the very experience of the moment by allowing your full attention to be expressed in that particular situation.

37b11bde2a09bf4328cd2695c2a580ab--psychic-quotes-linear
The present moment carries our past and future, and it is the only reality there is. By allowing your attention on the present, you shift your emotional body into experiencing this reality which is eternal.

All things carry expression and is your mind the one that finds either misery or happiness there; therefore, is not the situation itself, but your mind and the choice it makes.

For example, your house gets ruined by a flood, you lost many precious things you had.  Now, you cannot do anything about it, what you lost you lost; but, however, your mind is the one who chooses to relive the past and cry over what you lost, or your mind can choose to look into the good things in the present–perhaps that you and your family are alive, that you have friends who support you, that you can be patient and strong and work towards a better life, etc.

By acknowledging the present moment, whether pleasant or unpleasant, you free your mind from suffering, from thinking of the past and/or future; therefore, you don’t live in the illusion of a past memory or in the vision of a future, but you embrace the present and live in the reality which is eternal. 

Your mind is everything, everything you think and feel is due to your mind; so, if you control your mind and allow it to live in what’s happening around you, in the present, then you can avoid the painful lingering of thoughts which do not help you move forward but which only serve the purpose of crippling you emotionally.

Control your reactions by knowing yourself, then your mind will shift to the present things which can help you experience happy moments.  Constant happiness.

The free mind of a human god!

Reality Creator.

“All that we are is the result of what we have thought.  The mind is everything.  What we think we become.”  ~ Buddha.


“You cannot have a positive life and a negative mind.”  ~ Joyce Meyer.


The world is a perception of the physical senses.  Scientifically, we know that all you experience every day is what your mind tells you.

You only know the world based on your mind and based on what you allow your mind to contain; therefore, whatever you feed your mind–as in thoughts, environments, people with whom you interact, books you read, shows you watch, words you use–is what your experience is going to be, is what your mind is going to tell you about the world.

state-of-mind
You cannot experience true happiness in your life if your mind contains violence, hatred, jealousy, lust, and all obsessions which excite and make this same mind confused and rushing all the time.


As Buddha says ‘What you think, you become.’  Learn then the art of feeding your mind properly, the art of exercising your mind daily to make it strong and ready to help you experience the happiness and success you desire.

Embrace the scepter of wisdom and create your life by creating your own mind first. The secrets of your life and all successes you may achieve, secrets of yourself, of God, of the universe, lie in your own mind.

Truly, in your mind is all you will ever need, and if you do not feed your mind properly you cannot expect greatness to occur; so, read carefully, ‘it does not matter your intentions and your heart, if your mind is not filled by purity and strength, then you will waste your life and you will never be really happy.’


This is Universal Law.

The Before Illusion…

“Some of us think holding on makes us strong; but sometimes it is letting go.”  ~ Hermann Hesse; German-born poet, novelist, and painter.


“Letting go helps us to to live in a more peaceful state of mind and helps restore our balance. It allows others to be responsible for themselves and for us to take our hands off situations that do not belong to us. This frees us from unnecessary stress.”  ~ Melody Beattie; American author of self-help books on codependent relationships.



One of the greatest sicknesses the ego uses to pollute our bodies is the past, namely attachment; attachment to memories, to experiences that are long gone and that have somehow designed an image of pride and victimization which we choose to not let go.

he-who-clings-to-nothing-of-the-past-present-and-5556144

This inevitably brings mental suffering and it expands like poison into our bodies, soon our daily thoughts and behaviors become affected and we emanate this negative energy into the outer environment, thus affecting our image and the opportunities in all aspects of life.


The process is very addictive because in great ignorance people start believing that it helps anyhow, but it only designs the illusion that the suffering somehow aids in preparation for a future, perhaps that it makes you stronger, perhaps that it cleanses you from some considered sin.

This is giving your ego control over your existence, for in this way you distance yourself from the Light within you and you bury self-love to become slave of the past, crippled by it.

The Way…

“I do what I do because it is the right thing to do.  I am a warrior, and it is the way of the warrior to fight superior odds.”  ~ Paul Watson; Canadian marine wildlife conservation and environmental activist.

“Study strategy over the years and achieve the spirit of the warrior.  Today is victory over yourself of yesterday; tomorrow is your victory over lesser men.”  ~ Miyamoto Musashi; expert Japanese swordsman, rōnin, and author.



How great and empowering to the human soul is to be aware of the struggles of our past, how we overcame those obstacles with sheer will and inner strength; but, however, sadly most people forget and begin seeing future challenges as daunting and as even greater than the ones they overcame in the past.

th
The Way to happiness and strength is inside you, found by living in the present moment, not in your memories of the past or visions of a future.  Become aware of this in your heart.
And that is when fear seizes their minds and petrifies them before further progress can be made.

And that is just the key to recall that challenging past, that strong word: ‘Awareness.’ 

See, life gives us challenges to analyze and learn how to master ourselves, how to strengthen our unruly minds and design our own paths; but the problem, which most people have, is that they are not really in the moment when they go through challenges–they are either thinking of the past or of the future–so their minds cannot really record or absorb the lessons in the present, thus they start forgetting what they lived through and the strength they have when new challenges arise.

So, to realize at all times that you are a warrior who can overcome all challenges set before you, you must practice awareness by analyzing and surveying your challenges, making a mental note of them and developing constant self-love; this will give your mind resilience and confidence, and you will not feel like a victim anymore but you will remember that you have the strength within you the moment you need it.

Forging steel.

“Very little is needed to make a happy life; it is all within yourself, in your way of thinking.”  ~ Marcus Aurelius; Roman emperor.


“The unexamined life is not worth living.”  ~ Socrates; Greek philosopher.



Life is not just some state we have to go through and experience, but life is a gift, the greatest blessing; and much more than that, life is something we create in order to reach experiences that fit our individual personas as human beings.

You cannot follow in the footsteps of others and expect your life to be some mirror reflection, but you must design your own life, correct your destiny, forge yourself into the person you want in your heart to be.

Forge-Steph-8470_rec-662x446
Forge yourself!

You have to savor the process of falling in love with mighty patience, enjoying the present and experiencing the bliss in you.  Be wary of your conduct, watch yourself and analyze, study, let time be your ally as you trust whatever you go through in your life; and so, wise is the patient one, for patience is loving yourself enough to respect this process of trust.
But as you trust, you must be diligent because challenges will arise and shake you, so keep your head up high and do not quit whatever ignites your heart with a noble passion.

The fact is that life is perfect flow, but this world we inhabit, this society is flawed and far from perfect; so, you must watch your mind and your expectations, do not let your own ego create false expectations and reflections which may soon cripple you when things don’t go as you planned them.

Do your daily work with wisdom and do not carry yourself forth with ambitious and selfish desires; and in order to gain wisdom, you must silence the chatter of your mind and listen to your heart without interruptions.

And as well when dealing with people, it is wise to listen to what they say instead of listening to yourself and your grandiose ego.

The bully which rises…

“Did I offer peace today?  Did I bring a smile to someone’s face?  Did I say words of healing?  Did I let go of my anger and resentment?  Did I forgive?  Did I love?  These are the real questions.  I must trust that the little bit of love that I sow now will bear many fruits, here in this world and the life to come.”  ~ Henri Nouwen; Dutch Catholic priest, professor, writer, and theologian.


“When anger rises, think of the consequences.”  ~ Confucius.


 

We have all felt neglected, jealous, not understood, emotionally hurt, or psychologically insulted at some point in our lives; but, you must understand that anger is not something they made us feel in reality, such anger is something we chose to think and then create as an explosive feeling–due to our environments, events, ignorant people, yes; but anger is always a thought you create.

9082728_orig

The management of our physical senses dictates what thoughts pop up into our minds, and thus which feelings we follow or allow to affect us–i.e., for example, if you cannot control your jealousy and you are always watching how others live and so compare their lives to yours, you might get angry at your life because you don’t have the opportunities for economic growth your neighbor has.

 

Anger is a thought which is not rational, and it only exists because we have formed a prideful image in our minds; and due to the ego most of the time not being rational either, you have now a perfect recipe for self-destruction.

When you see misery, poverty, animals being killed, wars, etc., in the world, you feel compassion and great empathy for the suffering of others. But why do you get angry…??  Does compassion exists along anger…??  Isn’t love or compassion the only reality and anger the thought which the ego creates out of selfish ignorance…??  Why follow the ego and get angry then…??

Anger is selfish by its illusive nature because it poisons and veils the clarity of God, of pure Love; therefore, when you allow your mind to create emotions or feelings of anger, you distance yourself from the ultimate reality and follow your own designed illusion. 

You leave the Light of God to follow your own ego, which in your stressed mind might be an accepted process of love; however, true love and anger can never exist together–i.e., one is reality, the other a deceitful poison.
