Are you the fool??

Once upon a time a young man who had been reported killed in action came home from being a prisoner of war.  His family and his buddies, and even his girlfriend, had mourned him as dead and then, more or less getting over their grief, moved on.

His sudden reappearance was disconcerting, to say the least.  They had all loved him, but they had in effect written him out of their lives.  And his girlfriend was engaged to marry someone else.  Moreover, he didn’t seem like the boy who had gone off to war.  He was thin and haggard and haunted by horrible memories.

So, what do you think he did…??  Even though it was difficult to accept for him at first, he soon realized that change is a reality and that is wise to accept it with joy and forget the past, your old life, your old memories.

Because life is the reality now, not the past, not the future, not your memories, not your desires; but now you adapt to it, and you do whatever you have to do to enjoy life.  Adjusting to change, to new conditions, is indeed what intelligence is.

To remain attached to your old life, to your views, to old ways of behavior, to your beliefs and desires, is what being a fool is; because the fool cannot accept the progress of life, new moral values, and new change.  The fool has not developed his capacity for greater adaptation. 

So, you must ask yourself with honesty, who are you??

Through this Energy.

words-cast-spells-thats-s-called-spelling-words-are-energy-13683965

We can build or destroy through words, we can be freed or enslaved, people can be inspired or hurt, and situations can be understood or made worse through them.  But most people seem to ignore these facts, do they not…??

So, pay attention to what you say and how you say it, be true to how you feel but also be true to how you manage to express it.  The creativity and the understanding first have to fill your mind, then you may proceed with intelligence.

For it is all about energy.  Thoughts, feelings, words–energy, vibrations, dimensional language which has to be used properly through self-control and self-discipline.

Try to make sense of yourself and of your environment by focusing on your use of words (mental and otherwise), by not gossiping, by not following your anger and frustration, by being patient and inquiring into how you feel before you speak, by being highly conscious of absolute truth over simple belief.

Sometimes is better to keep quiet.  In silence there is much to learn, much understanding, much energy to recharge us and lead us to new and deep insights.  And a wise man knows this, because he observes himself acting through this glorious energy, and so he manages it properly to gain reality.

Past your own mortality.

 

When you experience something, when you learn something, when you hear something, when you read anything at all; but, especially when anybody tells you anything, ask more questions, inquire into the essence of the information you received, be skeptical and curious–more like the child who is always asking questions to his parents to understand more and more.

This is the secret to expand the mind and always keep it young and energetic, because as long as the mind is kept in awe and seeking new information, and discovering mysteries and growing in curiosity, then your attention remains in amazement and focused on discovering things for itself.


While the mind is kept like this, in amazement of life and discovering things for itself, then the miracle of the depth of life reaches your very conscience, and you feel new each moment, a rebirth each moment, and you appreciate everything with joy and without fear.

Because for the mind to have fear it must fall prey of delusions and worries; but if the mind is kept in amazement and discovery there is no room in it for any fear. 

Fear, confusion, worry, stress, appear because the mind is following your situations, the pressures you feel, your ego activities, the blind acceptance of information and the influence of anything which society puts in front of you.

This is to see past your own mortality, because the mind in its delusional ego creates growing old and fear of death; however, if the mind is new each moment then you have no fear of growing old or of somehow decaying psychologically to an idea attached to death.

Acts of intelligence.

 

the-power-of-your-subconscious-mind-300x300

 

The way you react in your life is the way of your subconscious emotional programming.  When you get upset about someone’s words, it is because your mind’s beliefs, ideas, or opinions have been rattled or threatened; thus, your subconscious programming makes you react even without consciously thinking about it.

But when you train your conscious mind to respond in a different way, unattached to beliefs, ideas and opinions to the words and behaviors of others, then you are creating your own subconscious programs.

This gives you intelligence, it boosts your inner harmony and knowledge of self; for you become more confident, liberated from egoistical reactions, thus penetrate into a deeper understanding of yourself, of others, and of the ways of life.

Intelligence is not your memory and the accumulation of knowledge there, but indeed this is what the naive and ignorant world believes–and so, just look at it and you’ll see that there are no really intelligent people out there, just people holding school degrees and people old in time.

Intelligence is in the way you react and respond to the world, to your stress, to your negativity, to your anger and frustration.  Intelligence is to create your own emotional understanding and to see beyond the petty acts of your ego.

Beyond 1,000 Sorrows.

 

quote-existence-is-sorrow-understand-and-go-beyond-sorrow-this-is-the-way-of-brightness-gautama-buddha-133-96-74

 

So, pain, suffering, challenges, any traumas we may carry, are important in the formation of our character.  You forge steel by extreme heat, and the same is with our characters–we must explore our pain to rise up and forge ourselves to be steel, to learn and be stronger in life.

But, even so, many people get addictive to pain, to their own traumas, to their own chaos lived in the past; in a sense, they are unconsciously choosing their own fate, how they feel and how they will experience their lives based on their addiction to their own pain.

This is getting lost in your pain, and this is why people live in their nightmares and feel depressed, or feel worthless, or feel neglect, or feel a void deep inside.  Be honest with yourself:  Is it rational to make your pain, your hurt, your troubles, your whole life and the way you feel…??

To reach healing, to prosper in all aspects, to truly feel happy and with opportunities to create a better life for yourself you must not drown in your sorrows; but you must see that your pain is to be cherished and felt as a source of energy you can turn into strength to move on and create beauty from it.

What you seek in life is not found in your pain, but it is indeed found using your pain as energy to be positive and create better things for yourself.  Drowning in your sorrows is an unconscious addiction and obsession which is not healthy in your life; so you must let it go.

When The Master Speaks.

 

when-it-hurts-observe-life-is-trying-to-teach-you-8932885

 

When you go through difficulties in your life, or things you do not like, or the actions of others have upset you, or you are paying the consequences of your own actions, it means that the essence of life, of your true self, is trying to make you aware of something–a lesson, another point of view, a realization of self-love, a sign of something.

Nothing which you live, even though it might seem otherwise to your ego, is irrelevant or worthless in terms of your psychological expansion and emotional learning capacity.  Now, you can accept this truth and become wiser in your own life, or you can deny this truth and live your life with anger and frustration.

The choice is always yours, but nothing ever goes away; so, either you see that and welcome it, or you remain thinking that life is unfair to you and random.  Deep understanding of your life as it is, or chosen suffering in sleep.

It is teaching your conscious or your subconscious something, for you to realize now or later.  When my father died and I had to help take care of my family in a country like this one, U.S., foreign to me, I suffered much, days and nights of neglect, crying and blaming life, because I felt alone and trapped.

But as years went by, and my mind expanded, matured, I learned the lesson, that my father had to die and I had to struggle for years to awaken from my own self-pity.  Point is, whatever happens to you, whatever chaos and evil you consider currently, nothing is permanent, it will change; and so, it will be your choice if to see the lesson or not.

About changing you.

 

tolerance2

 

Sometimes ignorance seems to lead people’s interactions, even among loved ones, and this may bring harsh words, impulsive actions, even immoral attitude.  But life must be lived with an open mind, and we must see past our mistakes and anxious reactions; for we all need each other, and we must hold on to the ones who really care.

Conversation should seek connection and honest desire to help us realize things; it is not meant to compete with one another and blame, or to see who is superior and who is inferior–which is an ignorant and immature game in itself.

Relationships can be complex and challenging if we seek to show off or win, it can lead us into disaster; and that is the attraction of something, the challenge, but the challenge to see past our anger, our frustrations, and so connect with one another.

And what brings understanding is an open-minded conversation which seeks us to be equals, not to show what we know or how strong we are.  If someone seeks competition, let it go and do not seek the same but seek harmony.  The mind must be kept positive in order to understand and think clearly.

No one is above this, for we all must engage in relationships one way or another; and so, each one of us has a responsibility to bring the maturity and harmony into it, even if the other person appears irrational and stubborn.  See, it is not about changing them, but about changing you.

And sometimes we have to walk away to keep our peace and harmony, but some other times we can help people understand, not by raising the voice and becoming participants of the game of competition; but by being truthful and firm, but kind and detached to make them see our views.  Because it is not about changing them, but about changing you.

Greater Evolution.

 

bd97c617ddb8fe3e2c56a31fd684d5a2

 

The essence, the very heart and soul of this physical existence is that each one of us is here to learn to transmute; that is, to transform our moments of depression, our losses, our own suffering into something we can use to move on, some strength to see into the future, some light into darkness.

That is the whole point of your life, to be who you are trapped inside, the one you do not know yet, the one buried underneath all your self-pity and sadness, buried deep under your opinions and beliefs of how life should be for you.

Quite often people imagine their lives, their futures, their desires, and they expect them to happen so, they become attached to these manifestations in their psyche.  But is this truly healthy…??  Is this truly real…??

Life is not something vain out of your ego, so you must learn to see this and welcome life as it comes to you.  Enjoy and learn, transform the moments of challenge and anger into moments from which you can develop yourself as a better person.

A better person who can actually make good choices and behave morally superior than he/she was before, as the person deeply buried under all the suffering and self-pity of egoistical desires and expectations.

No human creature is the same from moment to moment, we all change emotionally and psychologically, and even physiologically as our cells go through transformation; however, this evolution, this change we live, is in fact what makes human experience something of great worth, so you can learn to become better the next moment of your life, and the next one, and so on and so forth.

Neurosis.

 

59022907_673954766371222_3177407262163468288_n

 

Anger is anxiety at its peak, it is a very dark and low vibration, toxic energy and enemy of any clarity.  It possesses someone and shuts down the ability to rationalize and find harmony to enjoy life.

And it is so because it originates from fear, such may be a subconscious fear of not being loved, or of your beliefs being challenged, or others.

And people sometimes say that there is righteous anger; but the truth is that any anger transforms the mind, it brings violence, frustration, anxiety, dark thoughts to your mind.  So, how can anger be righteous…??

Something righteous by definition is something virtuous.  Now, something virtuous is highly moral, brings love to the mind, and peace to the mind.  So, is anger a virtue…??

You may not like what someone else does or says, or the way she speaks to you, or the way he treats others, or how difficult your situation is, or such and such life moment.  And this is fine.  We all have different personalities and reactions.

But it is your mind the one you must master so it sees this and does not create anger, because if the mind is anxious with anger you are the only one poisoned.  Poisoned because you lose clarity and harmony, and because you are now the puppet of that something or someone stirring the waters of your mind.

So, I can remain confident, clear, peaceful in my mind, and still react or behave in a better way to resolve a situation or respond to a person.  Always keeping a clear and rational mind is key to self-awareness.

Destroy Your Illusions.

 

41ce4f7c2e09ae78560795cc29f49ba9

 

As the mind interprets, philosophizes, labels and names, the actual KNOWING, the neutral and unbiased understanding of the essence of a thing, of a person, of all essential information, is lost.

When you see the beautiful sky, for example, and you mentally start judging its appearance, then you are focusing on the labeling and interpretation; thus, your mind is no longer free to KNOW the sky and to understand it. The words in your mind distort reality.

Another example, when you are stressed and anxious about a situation or issue in your life, your mind is clouded and busy trying to form ideas and desperately seek solution; thus, your mind is intellectualizing everything you experience, you become fearful, and so you cannot see the reality of it all but you get taken captive by your own thinking.

And when you see your loved one and you are angered and frustrated with the person for something which happened, what do you see?? Do you see that person as a monster which made you suffer?? Are you seeing clearly?? Are you judging that person based on this past you think about, or based on the present??

The mind can actually be stable and observe reality, see things and people and situations clearly; however, the content of it, the ego of it, is what will influence that “reality” you are seeing.

So, you must make sure you correct your own distortions–i.e., destroy your illusions to see and understand clearly, and so reach what they call “Enlightenment” or “Illumination.”
