The Alchemist practices…

In the recesses of your mind you may find yourself, you may see the truth without egoistical activity; all you have to do is watch intently, inquire with attention and depth, explore beyond those thoughts which pop up and which you sometimes follow blindly.  With earnest and eager attention, with a sacred proclivity into you, you must guard yourself and see your reactions, see your thoughts and what they tell you.  As a human being you have been endowed with self-awareness; and self-awareness is alchemy, it is to watch yourself to see your own mistakes and stubbornness, it is to watch your very nakedness in nature, because the ego dresses up thoughts as true, as lies, as righteous philosophies and concepts–and you must see through this thick veil, see the nature of God behind your pompous thoughts of man.

No matter how old you are, where you are located in the globe, or what you have lived in life, you must be able to access your own mind with self-awareness.  See yourself as you are, without masks, without lies and secrets; beyond beliefs, beyond what you have read and what they have told you.  Learn to see and read the messages in what you tell yourself and others, because quite often people just think, say and do without actually knowing what their thoughts, words and actions truly mean to themselves and to someone else: they get into so many difficult situations and into so much suffering that way, and all because they ignore their main and most important endowment–i.e., self-awareness.

The Alchemist practices Alchemy in everything and anything he does; and so, there is no chance of egoistical activity because he guards himself, day and night, as his lifestyle and higher nature.  He walks in self-awareness, which means his attention is drawn inwardly; and people, and things, and situations then, do not affect him because his attention remains inwards at all times.  It is easy then to master yourself and not suffer attachment when you practice daily self-awareness, because this is the heart of Alchemy and the key to open the doors to godliness in you.

Who or What is Lucifer…??

“I, Jesus, have sent my angel to give you this testimony for the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, and the bright Morning Star.” ~ Revelation 22: 16.

befb84b5b12c628e214be87fa90b5806--greek-gods-alchemy
The power for resurrection, the capacity for ascension, the divinity of Lucifer to get back on the ranks of the highest orders of angels, is all in us.

Lucifer was not the most exalted of the angels, but rather Prince of those lower three ranks of angels who were responsible for the cosmos.  He was properly the “Prince of This World,” commissioned to work out his good in original Creation, particularly of man in “the gaiety of love.”  When he sinned, he rejected the position to which he was assigned.  Lucifer never performed the beneficent ministry for which he was destined.

Lucifer is the son of the morning, the morning star, the bearer of light, the facilitator and the schemer, the one which fell from the grace of God and rebelled against the true Nature of man. Lucifer represents the individual intellect and will which rebels against the domination of Nature and attempts to maintain itself contrary to natural impulse. Lucifer, in the form of Venus (the representation of beauty itself), is the morning star spoken of in Revelation, which is to be given to those who overcome the world.

In short, Lucifer is the ego who blinds us from truth, who designs poor and imperfect love, who pretends to know peace by war, and the one who speaks to us through the obsessive desires and uncontrolled passions introduced in us by the physical senses–i.e., the ego of man lost in the false beauty and allure of the world of form, of that which is deceiving to man’s true nature,

Many people mistakenly think that Lucifer is Satan and vice versa, but the facts are that is simply not true. This misinformation, conspiracies and lies have been propagated to the people through many books and movies that most people equate Lucifer with Satan or evil. But in fact Lucifer represents the dormant illumination, the fallen angel hidden in our DNA, the possibility for ascension again–he once fell from the grace of God, but through true awakening he may ascend again.


So we may say Lucifer is our chance to discover a truer love, a more profound intelligence, a more divine understanding of the nature of the whole of Creation again.

I AM.

God (which is the same as love, as freedom, as happiness, etc.), for the whole planet, is just a made-up concept, it is a design of the intellect, of the ego; so, because it is a design of the ego, a thought, a concept, a story from The Bible and whatnot, an entity built by the insecure idiots of the world, God is truly non-existent. A thought, a concept, a belief, comes from the conscious mind/from the ego of man, doesn’t it…??  Therefore, God is a mere thought for the world.  God does not exist out of people’s own convoluted imagination.  God is love (their own vision of love).  God is anger (the anger they feel specifically).  God is jealous (a jealousy created out of ignorant attachment).  God is right and just (their vision of what is right and just).  And all this God nonsense differs from people to people, from religion to religion, from nation to nation.
This is the meaning of bullshit, isn’t it…??  Pure garbage!  Jesus–  Can you even blame intellectuals and people who do not believe in this pitiful God of the rabble…?!  But there is something sustaining and gluing the atoms together, isn’t there…??  I mean, if anything at all exists, if you can be alive right now, if experiences are real, then something exists beyond what you see in the mirror each morning.  Forget about the damned word “God” for a moment; too much imagination and stupidity around it–it doesn’t let your mind see clearly…  So what are you really…??  Your humanity is just atoms glued together; and these give you shape, character, gender, a great capacity to interact in this ignorant world full of idiots who claim to know God.  But even though this is important, you may agree this is just the shell, the structure which holds everything together.  Yes, women look beautiful, luxury is alluring, men look strong, buildings look solid, water is life, etc. etc.  But still, the shell.  So what is beyond the structure or shell…??…
Nobody can really give you the experience of knowing that, can they…??  You may read, you may pray, you may surround yourself with Buddhas and Christs; but all this knowledge is not yours, is borrowed.  You can’t ever know God (the same as love, peace, freedom, happiness) if you follow the ways taught to you by the world…  So, how would you actually know God, the energy which holds atoms together and fills the same atoms…??  How would you know..??  Or perhaps you want to follow the idiots of the world and remain an idiot yourself??…  You must find the answer yourself….

The transmutation most pure.

The path to awaken from the slumber of thousands of years is not to fill the mind with knowledge and the experience of others, but it is the transition or passage from living in your mind to becoming acquainted with your emotional body. The body has intelligence, but the mind is only a bundle of memories without intelligence–it is the past and also the imagination of a future. To live in the head is what most people do in the world today, and as a result the same world is chaos–i.e., wars, religious and political division, intolerance, no comprehension of what love really is, etc. etc.

To see this in oneself and change! Change without a second thought or stubbornness. Change without blaming others. This is moving from your head/from your ego to your body/to your pure emotional content. And greater empathy and understanding shall fill your whole being then…

“The transmutation most pure.”

Of the earth I was once born
And to the earth I shall return;
Like the seed deep in the soil,
As the seed forms into a flower–
But what happens in between,
What occurs as my mind develops,
What befalls the blooming flower…??
Under time, self-awareness every hour.

Thus an awakening of the whole human being,
An elevation of the very mind I must be seeing;
For the mind is the greatest challenge to endure,
For Awakening is the transmutation most pure.
From the head to the heart, from ego to spirit,
As I carry my burdens and seek my answers,
It is the manifestation of love without fear,
It is the mystical path which brings cheer.

The loud baby.

What brings suffering, need to gossip, need to complain, need to find any sort of selfish and ignorant security, is the ego; thus, the mind without balance, the mind which follows and is not unique, the mind which obsesses and attaches to something or to someone.

A state of egolessness is a state of the higher, a state with no goal or ambition which can corrupt the mind; and a state of illumination where there is clarity and no fear at all, a state of pure love and so understanding of all that is. This is the state to be sought by you and anyone interested in a better, more elevating life.

Enlightenment, illumination, wisdom, comes not to the baby eager to blame the world and complain, because the baby’s attention is on the world and so he has lost his own way and crawls in his own suffering and despair.
The meditative man achieves that state of egolessness which brings the love and higher understanding only a Buddha knows and experiences. In so doing, he creates a world which never decays, ages, or bases itself on fear.
——–

So, this is the finished piece. Titled: “The Path.”

I felt it needed some details to enlighten into some important issues in life, specially in our society based on vain superficiality and competition.  What are your thoughts…??

Truth.

Buddha-Truth-Quotes
There are two sides of being human, aren’t they…??  There is Yin and Yang.  There is dark and light.  There is your opinion and that of others, and plain truth.  There is fear and its machinations, and there is pure love which only obeys to truth and facts.  Now, one thing to understand is that the only reason the world is in turmoil, in chaos, violent, fearful, and the rest, is because people live in the dream.  And what is the dream…??  The dream is the state of their minds, it is like a veil which covers their eyes in such a way in which they cannot see the truth, they cannot see for themselves, so they feel the need to follow others and claim to know the truth by popularity.
Since billions of people believe in this, society does this, books all teach this, the media says this, everybody eats this, then I will join in and follow, thus claim this truth for myself and choose to be free.  Choose to be free…??  So, what is freedom…??  Is it something you choose…??  Choice is of the mind, of the ego, isn’t it…??  Because freedom is truth, like the Sun’s rays give energy day and night and keep all life living and growing–i.e., the Sun’s rays are free and real whether you believe in them or not.  See, it is not about right or wrong, but about truth.  Being right or wrong are concepts society teaches and conditioned in the mind of the human being; however, this is an illusion, only truth exists–i.e., the eternal, pure love, facts which can enlighten someone’s life.
When someone leads his life by truth, not by right or wrong, then that someone is Enlightened, a Buddha, a Christ, truly free to choose health, to choose the right partner, to choose the right philosophies, etc. etc.  This is freedom.  So freedom is not a condition of your mind, like true love is not a condition of your mind, like truth is not a condition of your mind–i.e., your mind only knows duality, light and dark, right or wrong, agree or disagree.  Stepping out of your mind then there is a place, which is not biased or conditioned, which is not a program or a memory; and this place is where one can know freedom, and where there is no ego.  This is why freedom and truth and pure love cannot be accessed by your mind, because they go beyond mind, they go beyond duality and its machinations.
When you live every day, in every aspect of your life, based on this truth you are free, and when you are free you are Enlightened, truly Awakened.  Enlightenment is to see!  Enlightenment is seeing the truth and becoming the truth–in the way you think daily, in the way you eat, in the way you behave, you are able to be love and rise ever in love–i.e., you understand daily the difference between love and desire, and between intellect and intelligence, and between imagination and truth.

Knowing.

1037-relax-and-succeed-you-have-to-be-your-own-teacher
Information based on imagination and traditions, stories of aliens and angels, and things in the Bible which supposedly happened a long time ago are not fact; but these are machinations of the ego, grandiose nonsense from people who live in fear of the unknown, so inventing something which entertains or fulfills an expectation from the ignorant readers appears to be profitable.  And the human mind, the selfish ego is always seeking something fantastical, always seeking answers and ways to mentally experience what it doesn’t understand. 
And this is exactly what is keeping you in the dream, because all these fantasies and things which are really unproven are no more than false knowledge; entertaining, imaginative, but false knowledge which is corrupting a clear mind.  People’s minds are their sanctuary, or should be their sanctuary; a place of worship of truth, factual truth, and a place where they can find freedom and refuge from the nonsense going on in the world–from politics, from wars, from personal problems, from painful memories, etc.  But there can be no sacredness, no sacred place to visit, if the mind is a den of imaginative deities and stories influenced by really ordinary people who lack self-knowledge.
Because when you have true self-knowledge, you stop seeking and inventing things and stories based on imagination and popular stupidity.   You must rise above all this and find the truth which you can see and prove, like the energy of the Sun you can feel giving you life, or the fact that you are made of eternal energy living inside each one of your atoms.  Question, always question, meditate on everything and anything you read; question even what you are reading right now and that which is popular knowledge–specially popular knowledge, because the rabble tends to feed themselves unproven garbage as they follow society.
55b908e65e2156a43c36ccb8e13e82b4--jiddu-krishnamurti-magic-quotes
And when it comes to spirituality, there are a lot of false and popular things going around; mostly because so-called “spiritual” people tend to live in the clouds and dream about other dimensions, life after death, and things which they have read and formed beliefs out of ignorance…  “The greatest enemy of knowledge is not ignorance, but the illusion of knowledge.” Stephen Hawking…

The voices…

“What if I cannot do it??”  “And what if he/she does not return my feelings??”  “My life is already too difficult and I cannot do more!”  “What if they do not like me??”  “What if they don’t take me seriously??”  “What if I am not good enough??”  “I cannot accomplish my dreams ever.”…  Too many “What if” and “cannot,” don’t you agree…??  So, let us think with clarity stepping out from any fear your mind might have, just for a moment–  Who says “What if” and “cannot”…??  Who brings you down…??  Who gives you these defeating ideas and fears which keep your body paralyzed…??  Is it your mind/your ego/the one who likes to keep the status quo and things as they are…??
37350857_505799143186786_1691795241461350400_n
And we can all agree that sometimes, just a few times, fear may help us get inner strength and maybe also get some good analysis and critique of our situations; nevertheless, you must see that it can also cripple you and make you feel worthless, it can degrade you and tell you lies through overthinking and images of really damaging and speculative imagination.  And imagination is a divine gift but also a curse.”  Think about this for a second.  Realize what it means for yourself.

Your ego does not know the real you, your mind is the content of the world, the content of your experiences, the content of what you have been taught and given by example since childhood; thus, your mind cannot actually see reality, it cannot see you and all you are.  Your mind is in charge to protect you, and that is why it is bound to keep you safe and sound by not allowing you to see all you could be and accomplish if you dare say “I love you” to someone, or “I am a god or goddess” to yourself in all situations, or “I will get this!” to your passionate drive, or “I can overcome all my losses and challenges” to your aching heart or to the ego who produces this pain.

The ego works with imagination, your mind is imagination–imagination to create, to find greater ways to love, to accomplish more.  But imagination which is not controlled or disciplined, but ruled by your ego, is tyranny which enslaves you and keeps you chained to a mental desk; it brings out voices of despair, of sadness, of misery, of hopelessness…  This you must see and discipline your mind so you do not fall onto this trap; because you must recognize between the voices of your ego and the whispers of your Higher Self…

Awakening of conscience.

Whatever we do not tolerate, or find truly annoying or disruptive in others, is a mirror to ourselves, it speaks to our higher conscience, it tells us that we must adapt, tolerate, or just walk away.  A mirror to ourselves is a reflection of something WE have to change within ourselves, something that we see in others and annoys us (annoys our ego); but, of course, the ego, which is always seeking to blame others and seeking to feel comfortable itself, as a measure of security, conditioning, will tell us that we must not change but that others must change to fit our own lifestyle or own daily living.
37218016_502613273505373_1285578772203962368_n
Your mind, your ego, is the one which finds faults in others, and which feels frustration, and which feels anxiety and all anger, is it not…??  You are in charge of your ego, are you not…??  So, change!  Take responsibility for what you think, for how you feel.  Your mind expands with understanding, and in understanding and accepting others you are understanding and accepting yourself.  Can you see this yourself…??  “We are one” is not just some spiritual or New Age philosophical saying or romantic phrase that’s popular.  Have you ever thought about it in deep…??  I know you have heard about “we are one.”  So what does it mean then…??

How did Osho, or Jesus, or Buddha, or any Enlightened Master talked to a group and yet the message felt as if directed to each individual…??  They only knew themselves, they didn’t know you; and yet they knew you and all of society from all ages.  How…??  With observance of others, with tolerance and appreciation of others’ flaws and strengths, the conscience becomes illumined, the ego is thrown off its throne, you become patient and realize that in others you see your own thoughts, your own feelings, your own soul.  If you truly observe the behavior of others without ego, without the voices in your head which complain and bring anger when something irritates you, you will realize what I am saying here, you will come to a deeper understanding than any intellectual one can give you. 
I am talking about an emotional understanding which is not guided and ruled by your ego.  I am talking about an emotional mirror where you can actually see your own faults and the changes you must make within yourself when you truly observe others.  Your ego fights, argues, gets irritated, blames others, and so it depresses you; and if you step out of your ego then a deeper understanding of yourself will light your conscience–i.e., an awakening of conscience.
higher-self-672x372
Relationship is our human lives.  Relationship is all there is, with ourselves and with others.  Relationship with others is a perfect reflection of the inner relationship we have with ourselves; thus, when you hate or get irritated in relationship with others is because there is something nagging you inside, your own ego disrupting your peace of mind–which you must realize within yourself and change yourself.  This brings you a deep understanding of you and everybody else.  This brings you an awakening of conscience.

Letting go…

cant-control-let-go

What is it which you seek to understand…??  Why do you always want that control…??–to always know everything, to always fix everything.  Can’t you see that freedom from all your pain, from all your problems, is in letting go…??


Your ego is not master of your house, only the moment is, the Now; thus, you must stop all thought and overthinking, allow the past to stay in the past, and you embrace the moment.  No pain or suffering, no confusion or frustration lives in the moment.  The heart lives in the moment.  Love lives in the moment.  And whatever lives in the mind, in the ego, as a thought or image, whether nice or not, is of time and space, chained to moods, likes and dislikes.  Whatever the mind can tell you is memories, knowledge, beliefs, deceits; and that is why the mind and overthinking is addictive, and such addiction is misery, is more thinking, is more slavery, is continuous attachment, is not letting go…


“Letting go…“

Whatever I know is what confuses me,
Whatever I seek is what escapes me,
Whoever I am is far beyond knowing;
My ego’s identity is always overflowing.
When my beliefs and fears arise I am not,
When words are appearing I am caught.
Why should I follow this false name…??
The vapors of the careless mind to blame.
The mind is misery away from a pure heart;
The process of letting go is the soul’s art
Through patience and faith I find me there,
And if I pay full attention love is everywhere.

Mists_of_Colors
Letting go is to be highly aware of your memories and all thinking, to be aware of your own ego and its ignorant activities, to not dwell on hurt.  You do not escape from memories, from thoughts, but you do not dwell and overthink either.  Why…??  Because you love yourself so much that you shall not allow an undisciplined mind to ruin your mood and depress you, but you allow love to expand in you by focusing on living the moment with joy and ideas to better your future.
