The road less traveled.

“Honesty is the fastest way to prevent a mistake from turning into a failure.”  ~ James Altucher; American hedge fund manager, entrepreneur, best-selling author, venture capitalist, and podcaster.


“Treat those who are good with goodness, and also treat those who are not good with goodness.  Thus goodness is attained.  Be honest to those who are honest, and be also honest to those who are not honest.  Thus honesty is attained.”   ~ Lao Tzu.


 

What does honesty mean…??  Can there be honesty–that is, clear insight, seeing things as they are–if there is a principle, an ideal, an ennobled formula…??   Can one be direct if there is confusion…??  Can there be beauty if there is the standard of what is beautiful or upright…??  When there is this division between what is and what should be, can there be honesty, or only an edifying and respectable dishonesty…?? 

Quite often being truly honest with people, and even with yourself, is the enemy of a lazy and mediocre ego; that is why most people tend to live their lives based not upon true honesty, either with themselves or others–i.e., they smoke while always telling themselves they will quit, they eat anything they want while lying about eating healthier, they keep secrets in their relationships, etc.

ths

Being truly honest is the road less traveled then, but it is the road to peace and self-love within yourself; because this process of honesty with yourself and with others brings right thoughts which bring inner strength to be truly unique, and it attracts more people like you via more positive energy, it empowers you in your own life.

To be honest means to have no illusions and confusions between the reality that is and what our ego/our crooked desire wants.  To get ahead in life, people’s ego makes them feel like they have to deceive and even design “small” lies; however, this is cowardice and a loss of purpose, because to be truly intelligent is to be driven by truth and a determinant focus on your daily goals, and to have these traits you have to embrace truth, if you embrace truth your whole human experience changes and there is no room for lies or “small” deceptions.

And to be honest and truthful in a society which is crooked and twists all truth to its whim, is rather difficult and rare; but it is the sign that we are ready to take on bigger challenges in life, because life is wisdom and is always testing us to remain firm and truthful in adversity.

Being honest and truthful to yourself and to others will always attract the right opportunities into your life, if you are patient and determinate enough to reach your daily goals.

Oasis.

“Physical fitness is not only one of the most important keys to a healthy body, it is the basis of dynamic and creative intellectual activity.”  ~ John F. Kennedy; United States President.


“Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food”  ~ Hippocrates; ancient Greek physician.


“It is more important to know what sort of person has a disease than to know what sort of disease a person has.”  ~ Hippocrates; ancient Greek physician.


 

Sicknesses and all illnesses, whether carried in genetic material or adopted into the system somehow, are not natural but they are products of a lifestyle chosen by us or by our ancestors.
Whatever is our humanity, whatever is chained to time and space, is bound to all that is negative and harmful to the same system; therefore, this may be called ‘Lucifer’ or ‘Satan,’ and until you accept it you will live in fear and will attract all sorts of triggers for illnesses (mental and physical).   This is the unchangeable duality of this world.  Don’t fight it, accept it.

But we also have our divinity, the godly energy that we are; and this divinity, this godly energy is altered or embraced by the human mind. As the Buddha says, “What you think, you become.”

The powerful energy of your thoughts then, negative or positive, will have effects on how you feel and on the illnesses you yourself trigger.
In the case of genetics, the stimulus or illness might be there, but it is the lifestyle you have chosen–i.e., the foods you eat, the places you frequent, the people which surround you, the thoughts you choose to entertain daily, etc. etc.–the one which triggers this illnesses.

The wise ones take care of their bodies and avoid triggers.
The fools (most of the population) attract the triggers and then complain like little kids.
Which one are you…??

 

The human body in its natural state, as it is intended by Creation itself, is the most perfect machine with the most amazing physiological systems; therefore, it is the direct expression of God, of the cosmos, or of Creation–i.e., the immaterial Universe experiences the wealth of physical life through it.

22406056_732852346905535_2161861777108393524_n

And because of this, each one of us holds a major responsibility towards our own bodies, towards the only temple that must be honored and praised.

I thought very appropriate to list some of the things to keep our own machine healthy and ready to experience the wealth this life offers.

Top seven “fuels” that feed the cancer “fire” and mutate more cells:

1. Fluoridated municipal tap water.
2. Genetically modified food (laced with pro-cancer herbicides).
3. Artificial sweeteners, namely aspartame, sucralose and sorbitol.
4. Vaccines and the yearly flu shot, often contain mercury, aluminum, formaldehyde and MSG.
5. Pharmaceutical medications.
6. OTC (over-the-counter) medications for colds, allergies, headaches and fever – often contain heavy metal toxins, artificial sweeteners and toxic industrial-based food dyes.
7. Chemotherapy and radiation.

The top 2 and the most important ones you have power every day to change in your life, for all of you who do not care about what you put into your temples daily:  2 and 3– Foods and beverages.
#1 is important but not everybody can change that in their individual lives.

Inner Power.

“Each Warrior wants to leave the mark of his will, his signature, on important acts he touches.  This is not the voice of ego but of the human spirit, rising up and declaring that it has something to contribute to the solution of the hardest problems, no matter how vexing!”  ~ Pat Riley; American professional basketball executive, and a former coach and player in the NBA.


“The two worst strategic mistakes to make are acting prematurely and letting an opportunity slip; to avoid this, the warrior treats each situation as if it were unique and never resorts to formulae, recipes or other people’s opinions.”  ~ Paulo Coelho; Brazilian lyricist and novelist.


 

In this life we are all warriors, we are here to navigate through challenges and learn from them with wisdom and meditation, and by mastering our minds and bodies we sure conquer all obstacles in our path; but, however, there are the ones who accept this role and the ones who do not, and the difference is the inner strength you summon to affront life’s challenges and the strategy with which you do.

instagram-quotes-new-warrior-lion

 

The warrior summons this inner strength by being truly unique and by not following others, and this is why most people in the world do not accept their role as warriors, but they think they are just on earth to exist and get by until death comes.  This is a waste of life, for life is rich with wisdom and experience, and human beings are here to realize what they really are and wake up from all forms of man-made nonsense–i.e., all ignorant thought-created chains like religions, politics, and so on and so forth.

 

Remember then that life is not just to exist and go with the flow of time, but life must be your most precious gift that you should analyze and appreciate, put attention and battle when you must as a warrior. 

Don’t let other people and even circumstances infiltrate your mind and deter you from accomplishing something great.

Take care of your mind and body. Be always yourself and be ready to face challenges without fear, knowing that challenges are a part of life just like fats are a part of any food–the difference is how you eat and what you eat, and with challenges is how you take on challenges and what challenges you take on.

Without chains.

“When I am able to resist the temptation to judge others, I can see them as teachers.”  ~ Gerald Jampolsky; psychiatrist and author.

“The ability to observe without evaluating is the highest form of intelligence.”  ~ Jiddu Krishnamurti; spiritual teacher, philosopher, and author.


We should never judge others and what they’re going through, because even though our thinking might tell us that we understand, such thinking is never the experience itself; so, in order to really understand, one must listen without judgement in one’s own thoughts.

thg


The way one experiences a challenge in life is going to be different than the experience someone else has, because it is the human mind which translates the experience.


The human mind works differently in each one of us–i.e., when something is deeply challenging to someone, that same something might be not as deeply challenging to someone else, or vice-versa.

Misunderstandings and personalities driven by pure ego are the main reasons for broken friendships and all more intimate relationships, and this obviously happens because people judge without really listening and opening their hearts to a higher intelligence.

The highest intelligence is not in the brain, is not the I.Q.–i.e., the I.Q. only recognizes similar patterns and solves problems based on books and the experiences it has gone through, so it judges purely on these terms; however, the human condition, human experience, goes deeper than what can be analyzed by books and by cold patterns and measures from thought. 


Never assume that knowing the psychology of someone entitles you to know and judge that person and the way he thinks exactly.  Experiences and the way the mind goes through them is very different for each of us.

The lion walks alone.

“The most common way people give up their power is by thinking they don’t have any.”  ~ Alice Walker; American novelist, short story writer, poet, and activist.


“Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds.”  ~ Albert Einstein.


 

In order to attain great, first your mind should be great, because all is mind and it all starts from mind; therefore, for a mind to be truly great, such shall be cleansed from the examples of a mediocre society and free from the chains of other people’s opinions and beliefs.  This mind must be unique in EVERY way; no fear shall be validated and fed, for this mind dwells in self-love and in its own purpose, and so that is all it knows.

You have to be yourself and create your own values in your own path, and that way you are the master of yourself, of your inner strength because you don’t depend on society for anything now; subsequently, due to this inner strength you have created within yourself, people can say whatever they want, economies will collapse, challenges will arise, but you will remain strong and resilient to all.

22554755_375781752855193_4823488760070724879_n

“One of the greatest attacks of the enemy is to make you busy, to make you hurried, to make you noisy, to make you distracted, to fill the people of God and the Church of God with so much noise and activity that there is no room for prayer. There is no room for being alone with God. There is no room for silence. There is no room for meditation.”  ~ Paul Washer; American Christian evangelist.

In moments of great challenges is when we must trust ourselves the most and accept whatever is, and stop allowing the activities and the noise, the opinions and the beliefs of others to affect us.  When it comes to energy vampires, even though most ignorant people would not agree with this, it is about our minds and nothing else; therefore, absolutely no one can take away your peace and love if you don’t allow them, if you do not give in to what they say, to anger and to the fear and negativity they spread around you.

cosmic-meditation

“Sometimes, being different feels a lot like being alone. But with that being said, being true to that and being true to my standards and my way of doing things in my art and my music, everything that has made me feel very different, in the end, it has made me the happiest.”  ~ Lindsey Stirling; music artist.

So, appreciate those times when you can be by yourself and recharge, by knowing yourself, your thoughts and emotions; thus, you can grow in self-confidence and all self-love, so nothing can affect you and your mind becomes wiser to affront the turmoils of life.  Be perseverant and true to yourself, and don’t let the mediocrity of the masses attack and poison your integrity and your determination.

Study Lao Tzu’s wisdom in this: “I have three treasures.  Guard and keep them.  The first is deep love.  The second is frugality.  And the third is not to dare to be ahead of the world.  Because of deep love, one is courageous.  Because of frugality, one is generous.  Because of not daring to be ahead of the world, one becomes the leader of the world.”

Into Life…

“There is no science in this world like physics.  Nothing comes close to the precision with which physics enables you to understand the world around you.  It’s the laws of physics that allow us to say exactly what time the sun is going to rise.  What time the eclipse is going to begin.  What time the eclipse is going to end.”  ~ Neil deGrasse Tyson; American astrophysicist, author, and science communicator.


 

There is a theory though that says that universes could be created inside black holes, that the extreme high densities of these space-time regions (too much gravity to hold itself creates too much pressure) represent singularities where the known laws of physics do not apply.

Physicists Stephen Hawking and Alan Guth suggested that under all this massive gravity, the region of this space-time would detach itself from the rest and create a universe of its own–which is believed is how our universe formed as well, and started the whole “big-bang” business.  So, is like the detachment of this space-time region forms itself a womb or birth canal where universes can be given life as well.

22496385_375988959501139_6562281070492934600_o

To understand this, I see each one of us as a unique universe–THE ALL or GOD being nature and all the creation that is around us, while allowing us to have life and form part of its masterful creation.

And so, when we unite man and woman, a child (another universe) is born, and then the child grows up, finds a partner (another universe), becomes one with that partner (universe) and gives birth to another universe (a child), and so on and so forth. In this theory, the unity process of man and woman would represent the black hole; so the black hole would be the conduit or energy formation, unity of the two (masculine and feminine energies) to form another life, another child, another universe.

4.1.1

In essence, if you deeply think about it, the birth of a black hole, as science describes it, is the most violent and colossal, prominent and powerful force in space, and it defies the same gravity and it breaks all the rules of space-time.  In the same sense, a woman giving birth to a child is the most prominent and powerful, as well as the most critical event that could ever happen in this physical life, and there is no other single event, that I can think of, that has more weight on how the universe progresses to create life or how our life changes drastically.

Mental evolution.

“If the thinker can understand himself, then the whole problem is solved. Then he is creation, he is reality; and then what he does will not be antisocial. Virtue is not an end in itself; virtue brings freedom, and there can be freedom only when the thinker, which is the mind, ceases. That is why one has to understand the process of the mind, the ‘I’, the bundle of desires that create the ‘I’, my property, my wife, my ideas, my God. Surely it is because the thinker is so confused that his actions are confused; it is because the thinker is confused that he seeks reality, order, peace.”  ~ Jiddu Krishnamurti; philosopher, public speaker, and author.


 

Mental evolution, the heights of the human mind, is the deep understanding of our own psychology; however, this mental understanding goes beyond psychology books and ancient philosophies, this mental evolution is a shedding of layers on our psyche.

Difference-between-Mental-Illness-and-Disorder

This shedding of layers corresponds to the higher man in each one of us, and the higher man is the one that is truly free from its mind’s content–i.e., free from beliefs and rules designed by others, free from fantastical and rebellious ideas, free from his own selfish concepts and behaviors, etc.

In order for man to really experience constant and pure bliss, and thus be open to each moment with acceptance without being attached to people or things, he must search within himself and take time to know his psychology as the thinker, as the supreme being who is in charge of ruling over his own thoughts, emotions, and over the events in his life.

Unless said man do this with divine wisdom daily, he cannot enjoy the eternal fruits of life.

Attention shift.

“Count your blessings. Once you realize how valuable you are and how much you have going for you, the smiles will return, the sun will break out, the music will play, and you will finally be able to move forward the life that God intended for you with grace, strength, courage, and confidence.”  ~ Og Mandino; American author.


What most people do is count their miseries, their debts, their troubles; however, this, in reality, does not solve anything but it adds to the stress and worry in their minds, this subsequently attracts more problems into their lives, their physiology gets affected as well and sickness follows.

thei
When you allow your attention to stay on things that stress you or worry you, then you create an eddy of negative energy which can only attract more negative energy in the form of more problems.


Of course, this divine process of creation acts in the realm of reality, the invisible and eternal which your mortal mind is not allowed to actually see; but you should recognize it nonetheless, as it fuels every thought and every event in your life.

By seeing the blessings you already have, you allow your attention to focus on the present moment and upon something which is real and pleasant to you, then your mind frees itself, your heart expands, and energy flows without blockages from negativity.


And, no matter who you are, and if you are rich or poor, there are always blessings to count–i.e., the clothes you have on, the food you have for today, what you are reading, the health you have, the people around you that truly love you, the fact that you have a healthy mind and can then work on a better future, etc. etc.

Don’t be a fool.  Use a higher mind and analyze all that which you have to be grateful in your life.

Poetry and prose from the heart. Stories to ponder. The free mind of a human god!

The hole in space.

“Three things cannot be long hidden: the sun, the moon, and the truth.” ~ Buddha.


“On a cosmic scale, our life is insignificant, yet this brief period when we appear in the world is the time in which all meaningful questions arise.”  ~ Paul Ricoeur; French philosopher.


     

The hole in space

I saw the giant and revolving door
Of great cosmic energy and no floor,
Out into the stars of my own existence,
Far above the world, a great distance.
Deep into the bowels of my mind,
Beyond all the beliefs of mankind.
I left all the torture and agony,
All the self-pity and blasphemy;
I became who I was all along,
The secret hidden made me strong,
It shone and then I saw it bright,
The peace and warmth, the light.
I packed conscience and truth,
More mature I left my youth;
Now I feel peaceful and truly free,
Walking through absolute glee.

The Star Maker

The long path was dark and there was no light,
Extreme torture as my life seemed eternal night;
The long wait for a savior crippled my mind,
Ill depression had gotten my soul in a bind.
Stars they had told me shone in the sky,
But I was blind, my wings broken in twine.
Of acceptance there was no recognition,
My heart was suffering fatal perdition.

A beauty maker by craft of choice,
Once I had been an artist with poise,
Now I saw my lit tools to hell dissipate;
My mind wondered if this was fate.
It came one day as nature fed the eye,
As the wind did whistle and the bird fly;
The emotion arose as intense as it be,
The thought was veiled, the mind free.

Confusion and terror held me suddenly,
But soon I felt the moment most heavenly;
Then I saw the stars within me in their glory,
I remembered who I was and my story.
I had walked the path long before my form,
I was the fuel, the love, the peace, the warm.
I was The Star Maker and never lived in dark,
My thoughts had veiled the truth, the eternal spark.

The free mind of a human god!

Temple.

“The moment I have realized God sitting in the temple of every human body, the moment I stand in reverence before every human being and see God in him; that moment I am free from bondage, everything that binds vanishes, and I am free.”  ~ Swami Vivekananda; Indian Hindu monk and philosopher.


“The body is the house of god. That is why it is said, ‘Man know yourself’.”  ~ Ancient Egyptian wisdom; Temple of Luxor writing.


 

The human body houses the eternal and divine energy which fills our cellular composition and which feeds our mortal minds to live each day, and this eternal energy at the same time houses what we call enlightenment; therefore, this is the only energy which should be praised and elevated to heights above any man–i.e., heights far above celebrities, philosophers, religious men, Jesus, Buddha, and the rest.

 

B8a4SPRCYAAn_sx

This is the only universal reality, not your mosques, or your churches, or any other temple out there, and definitely not the blasphemous and ego-centered men of religion.

This is the real you, which is and always was and will be; because this is the one conscious entity allowing your spirit to express itself through your mortal mind’s opinions, through your words and behaviors.

Whosoever can understand and influence his own behavior with this ultimate reality, will surely change his own life, transfigure himself higher than the common man, and eradicate all fear from his mind–i. e., he will become one with fear, he will embrace fear and use this energy for his own advantage into a great life of absolute self-love and unstoppable confidence.

There is no more damaging illusion for the mind of man than the misguided belief in entities higher than yourself, because this molds your mind into victim mode and into the pitiful belief that whatever happens in your life and in the world is not your doing.  This leads the ego to absolute power and this cripples your understanding of yourself, of others, and of life itself; therefore, you alone narrow your path and obscure yourself and your life from the light of the truth, from the real God.
