Render yourself free.

 

20190520_monday_quote_alternate

 

When you interact with the world have in mind a great sense of humility.  Don’t let others put you down, and do not let yourself feel prideful and put down others either.

When you communicate with people, share ideas, express opinions and personal experiences, don’t be attached to this; but be open to other experiences, let yourself learn something new about the experience of someone else.

Observe your own reactions to things, to conversations, to what you encounter in the world.  Observe your ego moving here and there, and control yourself, practice self-control, and do not remain attached to anything at all.

Keep on learning throughout your life, like the wise man, and for that you must become detached and free from thoughts and feelings–know that this is your very prison.  The fool ignores this and remains always attached to his ego, like a very hard rock, like a very stubborn and immobile object.

A creative and intelligent mind.

 

Creativity, or the essence of creativity, what fuels the creative process, is not of the busy mind or of the ego; but it comes from beyond that, and in order to tap into it, or in order to access it, one must quiet the mind.  And how do you quiet the mind…??

By observing an introspective or meditative life, a life that is not always busy and noisy, in an environment which offers calm and focus.  When the environment and the body surrender to this quietude as a daily practice, then the brain alters, changes its structure and functioning, and so it access this creative essence easily.

This creative essence is intelligence, it is the purity beyond the noise of the mind, to thus understand life and yourself.  Because that is what intelligence truly is:  Creativity in its purest essence, not only to create art, but to understand life at a deeper level.

The anxious and stressed mind, frustrated and busy, cannot access this pure creativity; for what fills it escapes harmony and calmness, and in doing so creates a psychological environment of pure suffering.  And how can intelligence live in this hostile environment…??

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.

Create!

original

As human creatures we have developed the power of visualization, which is the power of higher creativity and language; hence, we can create more than any other creature we know, because we mesh images with language in our minds–i.e., language reveals stories, symbols, it brings powerful meaning to those images.

This tells us that no matter our surroundings, our circumstances, if we can create with belief and faith, through patience and commitment in our minds, then we can manifest better futures in our surroundings through that mental creation.

This goes beyond physical reality, to create from thought into matter, and that is why it is very difficult to understand and even to believe for most people.  And also because to actually create, the mind has to have no fear and doubt that it will manifest; hence the difficulty for most people who are attached to the material reality and have formed strong bonds with this same physical reality.

So one needs to walk away from physical reality to create and begin manifestation, which means to detach oneself from the obsession of matter and the world, which means to direct your attention inwardly and stop putting so much faith, trust, stress, excitement in the physical out there.

The problem is thinking that your current situation cannot be changed, because in this lies fear and self-doubt.  People overthinks and speculates how to reach something, how to achieve something in life out there; however, they ignore and avoid the origin of all physical reality, which is thought and emotion in them.

 

Thus when you create with thought (visualization) and emotion (strong emotional connection within that same visualization) then you are directing your attention inwardly and creating your life from its very origins–i.e., from within the micro-world to manifest into the macro-world.

Inner traits.

The psyche is mortal, dual, material, obtuse, and in denial of itself; thus, of the two forces man contains within, one is developed stronger than the other, either that of the feminine or that of the masculine.  The mind then is its own ruler, sick or healthy; therefore, the mind creates the violent and absurd man, the warmonger, the unfaithful lover, the saint, the peaceful, the homosexual, the lesbian, the heterosexual, the libertine, the enlightened one, the wicked one, etc. etc.  But the successful and blissful life is attained once you have reached beyond this rigidity of mind–  Can you not see that yourself…??

The higher moral character, the divine traits of the innermost, the most decent and truly superior human being is embraced and it takes over when you go beyond the programming of your own mind–i.e., beyond the absurdity of the unholy and reactive mind.  This is for women and for men.  But it is specially a duty for men to awaken from slumber, because men tend to be in most cases the troglodytes who worship the knowledge of the mind and its delusional beliefs.

It is necessary, absolutely vital for any true enlightenment, to reach within and bring the divine traits of the feminine to the surface; thus, you must unite the sacred knowledge of the mind with that essence of The Divine Mother.  You will not feel whole unless this happens as an experience within you.
 
 

  Honest, creative, compassionate, empathetic, trustful, teachable and humble, patient under suffering, individual in thought–these are the traits which reside deep within each person (woman and man), and the traits you must strive to embrace and make conscious each day of your life.

The Great Knowledge.

Gnosis is best defined by the word “Gnostic:” the one who studies and lives Gnosis.  Gnostic comes from the Greek gnostikós, of gignookein: to know.   So the word comes from the Greek and it means knowledge, an “illuminating knowledge,” a “salvific knowledge,” which saves from ignorance the one who comes to know himself.  And this is why it is stated that Gnosis is a very natural function of the awakened consciousness, a Philosophia Perennis et Universalis. A synthetic knowledge, with its own values, that allows for the sincere seeker to achieve the Being and universal Knowledge.

The term Gnosis is related to direct knowledge of one’s own consciousness, rather than a theory or belief.  Now, the word psychology relates to the psyche, which is the soul in Greek.  And the word Ology (in psych-ology) or Logos is Greek for “the Word,” or in other words “God” (psychology: “the Word of the Soul,” meaning “God”), an eternal aspect of the creative impulse in the human creature.  Gnosis then is knowing God, the god within you.  “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.”  ~ John 1…   Gnosis is the Word then, and so it was in the beginning. So whoever has gnosis knows the beginning itself…   Do you follow this…??

Now, imagine 3 colored plastic cups–one red, one blue, one colorless or transparent.  You pour water into each cup–now you see water that looks red in the red cup, blue water in the blue cup, and transparent or colorless/pure water in the transparent cup.  Your consciousness is the water–i.e., transparent, colorless, pure substance of creative impulse or life in man.  And the cups with their different colors is your mind and its different states–i.e., fear, stress, anger, anxiety, peace, lust, joy, etc.  Now, gnosis, the Word, the Beginning, The Infinite itself, resides beyond these aggregates or states of the complex mind.

The information, the books, the knowledge you acquire, penetrates into your mind and it becomes part of the aggregates or states of your mind–i.e., the colored cups.  But in order to know God, to get gnosis, to know the Beginning and the Infinite, you must find a way to see past the turmoils of your own mind, travel past the colors of the cups; in short, during your days of struggle and stress, focus on one point past these, meditate to clear your head for as long as it takes, and float towards the transparency and purity of your consciousness…  This is the process you must master daily…

As the swans in the lake…

Ever seen a swan dance, so majestic and elegant, a celebration of their connection and harmony as their hearts beat side by side and their bodies follow the perfect rhythm of the purest and most innocent love…??  This love goes beyond thoughts, beyond desires and ambitions, it has no goals or outcomes but just celebrating life and the bliss of just being together–breathing together, dancing together, feeling together, elevating themselves by allowing love to guide each movement they make together, and just being there is considered the most precious gift…
index
Why can’t the human world do this…??  Why can’t each one of us wake up and see that love cannot be known by thought, because thought is against love and has created other less “precious” venues of false affection like romance which ends in time, like desires of the flesh which confuse, like the allure of money and power, like wars to “protect” the lifestyle and “freedom” of a nation, like mere words of affection which get taken by the winds of desire and time, and so on and so forth.  Is there any reason to not actually experience love…?? I mean, humans have a higher intelligence to be aware of true love, right…?? So, why do you bend true love to fit your selfish needs and your demanding desires…??
 
Why do you destroy love and the precious gift it brings you…??  Why do you willingly chain yourself to your ambitions, to your desires, to goals, to particular outcomes to be popular and to be seen by others…??  Men and women are guilty of this abomination, of course; but men most of all and specially, because men tend to be more in their heads, tend to see everything with the intellect, and like I said true love cannot be known by thought or intellect–no matter how mature and caring you think you are, love cannot be known and understood by your intellect.  Women, on the other hand, are more emotional, still confused by thought many times, but more connected to their emotional bodies.
osho-quotes-love-god
Woman is more divine when it comes to knowing love.  Ignorant and blasphemous men may infect women with their own visions of “love,” trick and control women into following their own pitiful thoughts on “love,” but woman left alone to feel freely may know true love in its innocent and creative nature.  Ever seen that when a woman truly falls in love she leaves everything and is intellectually blind, how she leaves in her emotions and gives her all for love….??  She becomes love, she leaves all thoughts of “can’t” and “impossible” because she only feels love–the essence of it, the very heart of it.  She only dances like the swan in the lake…

Can you not see that it is Now…??

Once, a king and a lazy man named Haria were very good friends.  One morning, the king said, “Why don’t you do work to earn some money?”  Haria said, “No one gives me job.  My enemies told everyone that I never do any work on time.”  At this, the king said, “You can go into my treasury and collect as much wealth as you can, till sunset.”  Haria rushed home then to tell this to his wife.  She then said, “Christ is certainly smiling upon us, husband!  Go and get the gold coins and gems now!!”  But he replied, “I see you are extremely happy but I cannot go now.  Give me lunch first.”…

So, after lunch, he took a nap for an hour.  Then in the late afternoon, he picked some bags and went to the palace.  On the way, he felt hot so he sat under a tree to rest.  Then, two hours later, he got up to go but saw a man showing some magic tricks.  He stopped to watch for an hour again.  When he reached the palace it was already time for sunset.  The palace gates had been shut.  So Haria had lost a golden chance because he had not learned the value of time.

Life is eternal because it exist only in the Now.  Whatever is past is gone, is never to come back, and a mere memory in your mind.  The future will never be, because it is just another construct of your mind.  Life then is enjoyed now, because the only reality is the Now, and the only progress is in the Now.  A plan to do something later, an idea to see a possibility in your mind, an intention to act when things get better in a future–these are all schemes and games of your overthinking ego, of your conditioned mind, of your lazy psychology, and illusions which do not carry reality.

Acting in the Now, enjoying yourself in the Now, expanding your love and commitment in the Now–this is all creativity and reality, this is the real you behind all the fears and insecurities…  The freedom to be yourself and to move your life forward step by step is Now.  Hesitation in living is not based on love, is it…??…

1573efba67e8c1aa6b2902eb3a30d70d
Step by step, enjoying and doing things now without postponing you then create your better life; always moving forward, slowly but surely, with presence and focused on the moment you are living.

The flame surrounded by darkness.

You must be able to see beyond agreement or disagreement in what I write.  You must be able to see art and truth beyond drawings, words, or beautifully embellished speeches.  When you see a flower, you tell yourself that it is beautiful or not; thus your thought pops up and beautifies or dirties that flower.  You are no longer seeing the flower but you are seeing the image thought has built in your mind; and when this happens there can be no insight.
Drop the mind, so insight appears in conscious view….
397ff11df460d6b65f1c32502f183dd5
And what do you think insight is…??  Insight is emptiness.  Insight is direct knowing.  Insight is not concentration.  Insight is absolute intuition power.  Insight is the emptiness between two thoughts; and when thoughts never stop coming up, as usually happens with the mind, insight is lost and buried under thoughts.  Thoughts are objects I can transfer into your mind through my words, but insight is divine and non-transferable.  An individual experience…  Can you see this without agreeing or disagreeing with me, or without having thought study what you read here…??–if you can, then you see it!  Therefore, it is a divine insight rising from the depths of you.

Insight is not any effort, because the conscious mind is effort and insight comes from deeper.  When you read and make an effort to understand, when you see a work of art and study carefully its meaning hidden to you, when you are in a relationship which brings some level of inquiry and confusion into your mind, there is no insight; however good or bad to you, there is no insight there.  And whatever in not insight is a fabrication of society, of our traditions, of our egos, of our beliefs; thus, useful to understand, but tied to a mechanical process like math or any other subject of knowledge, step by step you study and understand, and so step by step you see the light…

But insight is like a flame, deep buried, innocent, creative, beautiful, powerful like a thousand Suns.  It is buried deep under all that knowledge you have acquired through years and years; and it is buried and surrounded by you darkness, such darkness you fear to look into and where love and happiness dwells…  So divine and eternal love and true happiness are insights, not thoughts or feelings; they are your divinity living in buried emptiness, not your humanity wallowing in mental objects/thoughts…

“Enlightened leadership is spiritual if we understand spirituality not as some kind of religious dogma or ideology but as the domain of awareness where we experience values like truth, goodness, beauty, love and compassion, and also intuition, creativity, insight and focused attention.”  ~ Deepak Chopra

Step out of the cage!

Is inspiration something that bashes you on the head suddenly…?? Is inspiration something which is only reserved for the highly creative…??
Step out of the cage and create inspiration!
31507791_454452364988131_3426356052109557760_n
If you look at the world through people’s “logic” and beliefs, something is missing in their everyday lives–they make mistake after mistake, they do not take responsibility for their own actions, they seem to ignore what love and truth really are, they hate their jobs, etc…  Why is that…??  Is it because they lack inspiration to see and understand even their own lives…??

The artist waits for inspiration to hit him because throughout the ages society and all philosophies have told him that inspiration is a divine magic which comes to him from above, from somewhere he is not.  And this ignorant knowledge has gotten out and filled the minds of all of us, so inspiration has become a wealthy trait, something miraculous, something which not everybody can access.  Doesn’t seem fair, does it…??  I mean we all have to create in our lives, we all must fix our personal problems, we all struggle to find success in whatever we do, we all need a little inspiration daily, right…??

It is the waiting that which distances people.  The waiting is killing us.  No.  Why would you wait for inspiration when you must look inside you for inspiration, like you must look inside you for love and happiness.  Step out of your own mechanical thinking and inspire yourself!  Step out of the cage and create inspiration!  You must be proactive and creative, because these are traits we all have; and you find them step by step:  Write down ideas, think about past memories, connect to how you really feel, begin to work out the simple and easy things, and so on…  As an artist, I say that I never wait for inspiration, I am inspiration; so I begin to write something simple, I draw something simple, I see my feelings… and, Voila!:  There it is..

Step out of the cage and create inspiration!

“Put your heart, mind, and soul into even your smallest acts.  This is the secret of success.”  ~ Swami Sivananda.
