Awaken and Hunt!

“Today I choose life. Every morning when I wake up I can choose joy, happiness, negativity, pain. To feel the freedom that comes from being able to continue to make mistakes and choices; but today I choose to feel life, not to deny my humanity but embrace it.” ~ Kevyn Aucoin; American make-up artist, photographer and author.

We all have gifts and talents, and we were given the opportunity in this time, in this era, in this life period, to live this physical life to find them in each one of us; but, sadly, many people ignorantly look for them outside of themselves, and thus they never find anything which can bring them true happiness.

But you, as an awakening and wise person, must not waste your time here on this earth, look within you for whatever is for you expressing your unique self, freeing your spirit and being truly you. That is the whole point of this life. And if you can’t understand that then you will never find true and constant happiness.

To be here on this planet and fully live and enjoy life means to be present, which means you observe before you judge and complain, you learn what experiences may want to teach you before you get angry with life, you pay attention to what is happening around you in the present moment and not dwell in past memories or visions of the future.

The reality of life is that you must be present, focused on the moment of Now; so, live and enjoy wisely, follow your goals and love without fear, respect yourself enough to give yourself chances to become better, find your true passions and gifts within yourself. And for all this, again, be present, because happiness is now, in the present and not in the past or in the future.

Whether you think of an afterlife or not doesn’t matter, your beliefs don’t matter; the only thing that matters is reality, which is that you were born to be happy and successful in whatever you choose to do; but you do have to work at it with heart and intelligence, patiently, wisely, because you have been given time for a reason–i.e., so you can regroup your thoughts, discipline yourself, and learn to create your path.

So, mind your time on this earth, be patient, do not rush into things, plan and analyze what you are going to do, but be constant and do not waste your time.

As long as you are alive, you have a chance to better your life.

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

Flow with it…

“Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow.” ~ Melody Beattie; American author of self-help books on codependent relationships.

“Those who do not remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” ~ George Santayana; Spanish-American philosopher, essayist, poet, and novelist.

There is no more self-destruction and constant suffering of the mind than that of constantly regretting and thinking about past errors and bad experiences, because this is feeding the ego who constantly likes to feel like a victim and hinder any real progress that means moving on and becoming wiser.

24232094_393609681072400_2772849853798193049_n

The pain of the past and of the present also is there, in the midst of our experiences, for a noble and inspirational reason; and that reason is to help us evolve and absorb wisdom to move on and become better human beings. To learn and embrace all self-love.

All fear we have lingering in our minds and that we experience is either made by us a blessing or a curse, and we must embrace it and use it as a blessing to become stronger, thus grateful of past experiences of whatever nature.

Everything and anything in life, even if your ego cannot understand it now, is a lesson to be learned, it is for our minds to learn acceptance and intelligence in every step we take to move on with our lives.

Life flows just like a body of rich and fresh water, and your ways of thinking, your ways of behaving and interacting in your own life must match this, must flow with life, along life, through life, become one with life (and whatever happens in it); that is, just accept what you cannot change, learn from mistakes and past experiences, do not just rush into things but analyze and stop reacting without truly understanding something.

This acceptance is to nurture ourselves and become one with life itself, because in this acceptance we see and experience pain, fear, and all heartbreak as a lesson; however, in order for us to see and accept this, we must tame our ego and not become victims of its nonsense.

So, learn to be wiser and see beyond all the past experiences and challenges you had; then, be grateful and accept the wisdom in these past experiences.

Do not add more suffering, but free yourself.

Not the end of the road.

“Authenticity is everything! You have to wake up every day and look in the mirror, and you want to be proud of the person who’s looking back at you. And you can only do that if you’re being honest with yourself and being a person of high character. You have an opportunity every single day to write that story of your life.” ~ Aaron Rodgers; American football quarterback.

“I am not the richest, smartest or most talented person in the world, but I succeed because I keep going and going and going.” ~ Sylvester Stallone; American actor and filmmaker.

The mind can be a fatalist making challenges seem daunting and mistakes seem like the end of opportunities for progress in life; however, these ways of the mind themselves are challenges, distortions of reality due to a lack of self-discipline, and this is what is needed for us to become stronger and master ourselves.

Nothing in this life is given to you, but you create it with your thoughts of inspiration and persistence, never stopping because you make a mistake or you fall.

How can someone learn to understand and appreciate life if that someone gives up because of a bad experience or mistake…?? How can someone really practice true self-love and at the same time stop the expression of his human spirit from pursuing his dreams and goals…?? How can that someone embrace happiness every day if there is neglect to keep going and learning from mistakes…??

You were not meant to just cruise by and admit defeat, put a fake smile and pretend that you love your life as it is. You must understand that life is not random, life is conscious, much more conscious and wise than the highest human I.Q., and even highest than any Enlightened human heart. You are the creator of your life all the time; when you are conscious of what you create, you control what you create thus beauty surrounds you; but when you are not conscious of what you create, you are not in control of what you create thus ugliness surround you.

There is no mistake in life, not even if it is a major crime, that will mark you as garbage or sinful for ever, you have always the power within yourself to change and raise above yourself and what you did; so, your next choice, your current moment will modify it in your mind, you either learn from mistakes and bad experiences or you drown in a dark pool of self-pity and self-destructive thinking.

Life in its wisdom moves and never stops, and the clock never stops either; therefore, be wise as life itself is wise, mind your time and your thinking, act accordingly and keep going always aiming to be better than yesterday.

Clouds of Dreams.

“Write about the dream you see during wakefulness.” ~ Debasish Mridha; American physician, philosopher, poet, and author.

“With the known, you simply repeat the process. With the unknown, you access the new doorways to life.” ~ Roshan Sharma; meditator, self-help blogger, and author.

Deep beyond our thoughts and desires, our perceptions and feelings, there are waters of light, within each of our atoms, within us all, within all; and so, these spaceless and timeless waters of light refresh us, give us the inner energy, the fuel to create whatever we are passionate about in this physical life.

This can be called Wakefulness as it is the eternal condition of our souls, of what we truly are; and this is why we cannot fail at anything in this life if we train our mortality, our ego-minds and our corrupted bodies, to sail these illumined waters into the right direction, the direction of our dreams and goals.

The sailing of these waters, through patience and faith, with self-love and self-inquiry, shall awaken us into new perceptions and horizons more like the dreams we carry with us at night; such dreams of mystery and, quite often, new enlightenment into many things lived in our waking days, and dreams which carry the reality of our innermost beings.

You must trust your path then and not be swayed back and forth by the turbulent waters of your life, by the pressures imposed by your own ego and the ego of others around you; and you must hold on to your inner dreams and reach for strength and passion to endure the superficiality of this physical manifestation we call life.

24058959_391194204647281_2028549147742727341_n

So, make your dreams wake, let them carry you along and manifest what you truly are, namely the fresh waters of light.

The fear you can encounter along your path is just the superficial manifestation of your physical life and not the reality of it all, because your dreams are.

Clouds of Dreams

And who are we? The conscious or the unconscious…??

And what is reality? The world of form or the Clouds of Dreams…??

And whoever said we are the appearance of a thought-form…??

And whoever said we are the very experience in the dream…??

They walk tired and frustrated amongst the myriad of shapes,

The shapes and colors in the vain places are all they see;

The dreams are real but far from the vain places they visit,

For the essence of dreams are within the shapes and colors.

I experience Clouds of Dreams while they try to see it with their eyes.

Dreams are eternal clouds behind the shapes and colors in disguise.

After reaching…

“Focused, hard work is the real key to success. Keep your eyes on the goal, and just keep taking the next step towards completing it. If you aren’t sure which way to do something, do it both ways and see which works better.” ~ John Carmack; American game programmer and virtual reality engineer.

“There is no substitute for hard work.” ~ Thomas A. Edison; American inventor and businessman.

There is a tendency in most people to believe that talent is what makes great men and women or that it is what really matters, and so they use the excuse to not accomplish or pursuit great things in life saying that they have no talent; however, talent, is like love, it is the essence of creativity which we have within us, which we are, and it is not something one has and the other doesn’t.

thu

But, having established that we are talent, each one of us, we must understand that because we are tied to this thought and this flesh, our humanity through time, then it is not enough to be love and talent as essence, but we must do certain things to design that talent into whatever we choose to do.

This process of designing may take weeks, months, years of practice depending on the passions we pursue.

What I am saying here is that talent is nothing without the process of creating it, without the hard work and dedication we must put into it to develop it. You have to really understand that finding your truest passion and developing it is absolutely everything, because in order to embrace true happiness and feelings of success then it is a must to free yourself from the chains of fear and change.

To do this, work on your talents, stop procrastinating and looking for excuses not to develop yourself.

This is self-love. And if you choose not to embrace self-love, you cannot really be happy but only design the false sense of happiness; and this is feeding your own ego, your fears.

There is a source of creativity and wise spontaneity unlike any other, unique to you and to your humanity; such which travels and exists via Infinite Intelligence, and which has nothing to do with your mortal mind filled with all kinds of fears and confusion. This you must reach deep within you because you are here to use it and shape it to your individual expression You must work on this process of freedom all your life. This is your purpose.

“Love is what shines over the trees.”

Post author By thegodwithinblog
Post date November 10, 2017
No Comments on “Love is what shines over the trees.”

“You don’t love a woman because she is beautiful, but she is beautiful because you love her.” ~ Anonymous.

“Secrets of the stars“

If you look deeper into the magic of the stars,
Within the cosmos and wonders of your heart,
That is where you will find the sight to know,
The eyes to see the sexiest part of a woman,
Which lies not on her body
Or pretty face;
The sexiest part of a woman
Is in the recesses of her beautiful mind,
And that is where she hides away.
The kinky side which shines in the dark,
The naughty girl which conceals dreams,
The eternal believer of the magic.
The sexiest part of a woman
Is in the silent secrets of the stars
That she keeps locked away for someone to find.

~ Asa.

“The tree which moves some to tears of joy is in the eyes of others only a green thing that stands in the way. Some see Nature all ridicule and deformity, and some scarce see Nature at all. But to the eyes of the man of imagination, Nature is Imagination itself.” ~ William Blake; English poet, painter, and printmaker.

“Love is what shines over the trees“

The wind carries the magic of the cosmos,
Yes, as it dances in your earthly mind,
Yes, as the morning dawn touches your heart,
Yes, as the birds sing in cosmic awareness,
Yes, as the lovely flower opens to the bees,
Saying, “Love is what shines over the trees.”

This cosmic essence is about us and them,
It is beyond the eye, the nose, and the ear,
And it raises the question of Infinity no one really understands:
What is that which you and I call Love beyond the petty sights…??
The Eternal Beloved knows, within us, the earth, the sky, the seas,
Saying, whispering with the winds, “Love is what shines over the trees.”

Invincible.

“There are no contests in the Art of Peace. A true warrior is invincible because he or she contests with nothing. Defeat means to defeat the mind of contention that we harbor within.” ~ Morihei Ueshiba.

“When life is victorious, there is birth; when it is thwarted, there is death. A warrior is always engaged in a life-and-death struggle for Peace.” ~ Morihei Ueshiba; Japanese martial artist and founder of the Japanese martial art of aikido.

The way of the sage is the way of the warrior, and the way of the warrior is acceptance and mental clarity in his own life; but there cannot exist true acceptance and absolute mental clarity if the mind of that warrior is filled with beliefs and an ego which is not tamed, unruly and rebellious, designing all kinds of emotional schemes and heated states of mind. This soon becomes the hell of the ordinary mind.

Peace brings a state of clarity and joy to the mind wherever it goes and in any situation, and this precisely heightens that same mind into a constant condition of harmony within the real self.

The opportunities of human growth in the intellectual, spiritual, and economical aspects seem to appear in our midst when there is a deeper connection to the wisdom of mental clarity; and so ideas and strategies appear in consciousness making the mind rich and useful. This is the higher awareness of the superior mind.

Man’s task is to raise himself above the ordinary mind full of beliefs and traditions, selfish desires and appetites, by increasing his own awareness of self and by meditating upon a clearer mind–this is done by process of emptying the ordinary mind from books and religious nonsense, philosophical stands and rebellious ideas, selfish appetites and egoistical daily lies, etc. etc.

If you have a clear and focused mind with a vision, then all fear and anger, anxiety and frustration, dissipates, because the human mind allows your experience to be where your attention is; so, if your attention is on possible failure and in the difficulties of a challenge, then your mind will make you experience fear, all anxiety and frustration; but if your attention is on success and on the commitment to strategy each moment, then your mind will make you experience confidence and the positive attitude and thinking that your new winning perspective takes–and this feeling will overtake your whole body and drive you forth.

Most people tend to pay attention to the writings and words of others, without actually thinking that each mind is unique, and that each life and path to success is unique. If you try then to copy the journey of others, whether these others have achieved greatness or not, you will deviate from your real purpose; such being the liberation of your human spirit via your own developed talents, ideas, skills, strategies, etc.

Don’t fall prey of society and of your own ego, of your own intellect. Peace means clarity, and you must work on yourself and focus only on yourself to develop inner peace, to erase all fear and confusion to get ahead and express your pure and most noble heart’s desires.

Business mind. Self-help life truths.

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.”

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 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.

“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.”

Blasphemous.

“However many holy words you read, however many you speak, what good will they do you if you do not act on upon them?” ~ Buddha.

“No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path.” ~ Buddha.

Christians think they follow Christ, but following Christ means truly following his philosophy of Enlightenment, and not one of them do this; they just read stupid passages from the scripture and adore some nonsense statue or painting at blasphemous religions.

blasphemy1

When it comes to Jesus, Buddha, and others, people are so trapped and deceived by their own ego that they believe that their religions are right and truthful. Ignorant people do not see that everything they know from clergy men and from the interpretation these men have given to the scriptures is totally crooked, fit to their blasphemous and stupid institutions which only seek mental control and the selfish growth of their establishments on earth.

And the pathetic part of it all, is that most of these people are reading this right now.
Wake up!
