By Intuition.

Most people around the world design ways to love and decides what love really is, but the substance which makes love what it is cannot be contained and created in their minds; and neither is it a by-product of intellectuals and philosophers.  Why not…??  Because love is the essence of freedom, no attachments whatsoever, no egotism whatsoever; and freedom is not something which can be contained by a mind, it goes beyond that.  Thus no-mind is love.

It cannot be a thought, it must be felt with your emotional body, which is the seat of your intuition.  Of course, intuition is not something most people uses or even dares find within themselves, they just get too busy using their minds to create false ways to love and concepts which explain love.  So, if one is to see this and accept it, one must trust oneself and others; which is not easy at first because the mind’s programming is to create everything from the intellect and protect it, and yet love cannot be created.

You must jump without attachment; and that is to guide yourself by intuition/without fear.

The purest.

Love is vastly misunderstood in society, in the world, by women and men; because it has been made a concept fitting philosophies and individual opinions tied to moods and circumstances.  Ignorant people, most people, good people, perhaps even you, love based on their changing feelings–i.e., I love you if you share my point of view, I love you if you respect my feelings, I love you if you do this for me, I love you if you appreciate what I do for you and you thank me and respect me, etc. etc.  Their “love” has expectations, a quid pro quo, a political battle for emotional recognition and worship; however, this shadow of love designed by society and by your own mind is flawed, imperfect, impure, and not free.  This is bondage, is it not…??

But true love has no designed quality and feel of the mind, and that is why it is free.  It does not belong to you or to me, but it is there.  It is not something you create by having any relationship with someone else.  It is not that you have to deserve love or that someone has to be intimate with you.  Love is the Cosmic Consciousness of the great and divine Process of Creation, and so it is in you, there, and everywhere else.  Love gives as air is there for all breathing, so do not allow your mind to confuse you on this: The highest form of love is support, giving, sharing without expecting, friendship.  Love is existence, and you exist not to take but to experience; so, when you love, you just do it for the experience and opportunity to love.

This is the highest understanding, but not an intellectual understanding; for everybody in the world if you ask them would agree, but the fact is that nobody lives it.  Nobody lives by this truth.  This truth, when actually lived in your own life, brings great illumination and awakening.  Of course, you may not see it and so make up excuses why you cannot love this way in your own life; but the mind begins to accept the truth with practice.  Practice makes perfect.  And that is what love really is: Perfection.  The purest.

Free Will and Natural Law.

If I were to ask you if you are free to choose, what would you say…??  Let me guess: You would say ‘yes.’  In fact, everybody thinks they are free to choose. don’t they…??  But the human being works out of a program, and in this program they can only see what the content of that program is; therefore, they choose with the “freedom” they see in this program–in other words, they are fenced in or caged within this program, where they see and experience only its content and so choose based on this.  This program is their “I” and their illusion of freedom.

These human creatures work under the laws of their environments (outer pressure), and under the laws of their inner states of the “I” (inner pressure).  And because of this, the mind is blinded and distanced from Natural Law, their egos build a hidden but selfish desire in them to make their choice based on temptations and the programing they carry.  The truth, free will, divine illumination, is only known and experienced when the human being works under Natural Law; for Natural Law is not the “I” or the ego, Natural Law is the law of the divine beyond the laws of man/of the ego and its polluted programing.

The true spiritual path to illumination is Natural Law, and it must be freedom.  This higher path can be walked by man if there is only the true desire for goodness in him–but the question is who answers or tells that man what is good for him….??  If an ego entity does, then it is not good, it is not true freedom, it is not the path of the divine.  Do you eat meat…??  Do you tell “small” lies sometimes…??  Do you seek revenge…??  Do you argue with people to feel superior…??  Do you seek love and happiness in your family and friends/in the world of form…??  If the answer to these questions is ‘yes’–then you are not truly free, because you are choosing what is in the content of that program, and because these choices are attachment to that program.

Can you see that your selfish ego chooses all this…??  Can you see your own cage…??  Free Will only shines in man’s conscience, in his whole being, when he recognizes this and learns to step away from his own ego; because the path to illumination is absolute truth, it is a sacred path walked only under Natural Law.

The truth can only be known by the creature only when the mind is absolutely free from the influence of impressions–i.e., inner and outer pressures.

All dreams…

What are dreams…??  Strictly speaking, dreams are images and imagery, thoughts, sounds and voices, and subjective sensations experienced when we sleep.  This can include people you know, or people you have never met, or places where you have been, or places you have never even seen.  Your subconscious keeps all this information because this mind is unlimited; and that is the mind that also links you to the Divine, to messages, to symbols, to synchronicity, to deja vu moments, to all emotional intelligence relationship.

I am writing this because I have talked to a few people and they seem to linger and attach themselves to nightmares and such, so they become anxious and follow this confusion which takes them to despair and all this misery.  But the reality is that all dreams bring something for us, whether you find it of value to you or not they try to tell you something; however, one must remember always that dreams are just subconscious thoughts, and thoughts are not meant to rule your life.  Thought/your mind is a tool, just a tool–a very important tool, but a tool nonetheless.

Dreams are stories and images that our minds create while we sleep, and they can be entertaining, fun, romantic, disturbing, frightening, and sometimes bizarre.  But dreams are just the voices we do not hear during the day because of our conscious monkey mind, they are a guidance and also a form of freedom from our ego.  Science tells us that dreams at night, that is sleep helps the brain recover from the day’s depletion of energy; and I think that means a few hours at night to recover from our own ego/from our own loud monkey brain talking all day–so freedom from our humanity.

dreams_quote
If you allow dreams to rule you then you are allowing your mind to bring difficulty to your waking hours.  The more allowing you are in life, the less complicated life is.

To be free.

jiddu-krishnamurti-820
When the question of freedom is propounded, in each mind there is incoherence, vagueness, and incongruity; in fact, in most cases you wouldn’t find ten people on the street who share the same understanding of what freedom really is.  Nobody really understands what it is, because people are followers, they think they seek reality but in fact they are disturbing reality by following others; thus for them wars are the gateway to freedom, competition is the key to enjoying life and get what they need, love always molds to their each individual concepts, the truth is always what brings them comfort and pleasure, loneliness is cured by bringing more people into their lives, and the stupidity goes on and on and on.  Wars.  Competition.  Different concepts and ways of love.
But how many flags, how much blood, and how many heroes have come to pass in the course of history whenever the question of freedom has been posed in life’s scenario…??  Adolescents long for freedom: It seems incredible that while having food, clothing, and shelter they should want to flee their homes in the pursuit of freedom.  And it is logical that a young girl wants freedom, longs to move away from home, to marry in order to escape from under the parental roof and lead a better life.  This is in part due to her right to be a mother.  Nevertheless, once married, she finds she is not free, and with resignation she must bear the shackles of slavery.  A worker, tired of so many regulations, wants to be free; but even if he achieves independence, he soon encounters the problem of continuing to be a slave to his own interests and concerns.  They all think they know freedom, because they seek freedom–and that is exact;y their downfall.

Truth is, as long as your consciousness remains in slavery to your ego, as long as you seek freedom out there in activities, you will not become free–not in a million years!  Consciousness must be rid from the egoistical mindset and its anxious content; your mind is your world, every thought, every feeling, every experience appears in your mind, and this mind dumps its content on your consciousness.  In short, your mind must be free from society, its concepts and beliefs, in order for your consciousness to see reality as it is and for its pure energy to elevate your mind’s thoughts.

What matters.

Once upon a time there was a world famous teacher in north-western India.  It just so happened that one of the high class students had been named ‘Bad’ by his parents.  One day he thought, “When I am told, ‘Come Bad’, ‘Go Bad’, ‘Do this Bad’, it is not nice for me or others.  It even sounds disgraceful and unlucky.”  So he went to the teacher and asked him to give him a more pleasant name, one that would bring good fortune rather than bad. 

The teacher said, “Go my son, go wherever you like and find a more fortunate name.  When you return, I will officially give you your new name.”  The young man named Bad left the city, and traveled from village to village until he came to a big town.  A man had just died and Bad asked what his name was.  People said, “His name was Alive.”  “Alive also died?”  asked Bad.  The people answered, “Whether his name be Alive or whether it be Dead, in either case he must die.  A name is merely a word used to recognize a person. Only a fool would not know this!”  After hearing this, Bad no longer felt badly about his own name, but he didn’t feel good about it either. 
After leaving the town, along the roadside he met a man who had lost his way.  He asked him, “What is your name? ”  He replied, ‘My name is Tourguide.”  “You mean to say that even a Tourguide has gotten lost?” asked Bad.  Then the man said, “Whether my name be Tourguide or whether it be Tourist, in either case I have lost my way.  A name is merely a word used to recognize a person.  Only a fool would not know this!”  Later, Bad came to a realization…
Now completely satisfied with his own name, Bad returned to his teacher and decided to keep his name and work on what mattered.

And working on what matters can be daunting, intimidating, right…??  People tends to be fearful and seek out there their purpose and meaning, because that is what they have been taught, by their families, by their religions, by their culture and societies overall.  So they compare and work towards becoming this and that, they refuse to look within so they escape it–seek refuge and distraction from themselves in the world.  But their identities are not a name, a mental program, a lifestyle they have been taught; and this is their weakness, they do not know themselves…  And do you know yourself…??  

Now, to know yourself is to accept yourself completely; and to accept yourself completely is to erase fears of being lonely, or of having losses, or of being left by others, or of making mistakes and being shamed by others.  To see this and to cross that bridge.  To embrace yourself fully by seeking all inside yourself, it is how your life and your situations become clear.  And now there is no fear, because you know that fear inside you and you became one with it

Explore your very being…

Today I wanted to show you some of my paintings, because I was reminding myself this morning how important is to be creative and have an outlet–a source of your own where you can recharge and express yourself.  Whatever that is for you, learn to be creative in whatever you do, as simple and silly you think it might be; work at it, use the talents and intelligence you have to create, to inspire yourself and others, because that is where the key to being unique is found.

People tend to often live monotonous lives, and lives full of frustration and stress; the job, the kids, the relationship, the friends, the engagements, the idea I have to work on, the traveling, the rent.  But what about yourself…??  What about discovering yourself from the inside instead of engaging on activities solely on the outside…??  And people cannot find clarity and freedom in their lives, and this is because clarity and freedom come to your mind whenever this one is stress-free and calmed, peaceful and in love with yourself or with the person you are; thus free to be yourself and not follow a set pattern given by society.

To discover yourself you must then open yourself to new frontiers, to new paradigms, to new ways of exploring yourself.  So you can discover love and happiness in you as a trait of your very being…

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.

Like the wolf.

A wolf–alone, individual, constant, patient, following his own.
So, losing and winning is based on competition, right…??  Losing and winning are concepts born out of comparison.  You watch others, you covet what others have, you desire to be like them and enjoy like them, you formed attachment and addiction to these ideas and views; so you compare and destroy your uniqueness, because in your mind competition broods as the only reality, the only way to better yourself and your life, and because your mind is infected now by this outer influence.  And, of course, this brings fear to the mind.  Can you see how this mindset brings fear…??

50465_original.png

Fear of not being good enough to achieve what you want, fear of so-called “failure,” fear of being mocked by others for not achieving, fear of feeling inferior, and the fears go on and on.  And this brings mighty pressure on you, your mind is now on struggling mode and you are not really enjoying the moment because your mind is upon what you could win or lose in a future; this obviously brings suffering, this puts you in a bad and tense mood because you are playing to win and you cannot do less than winning–so you must be always on and reactive, guarded and ready to strike at any moment.  But what of the pressure…??  The pressure is not only psychological but now is felt all over your body, and your immune system gets compromised, your energy in time is less because to compete and have this intense thinking you must use great amounts of energy.

And perhaps thoughts of quitting pop up in your mind…??  Who knows.  But if you do quit you feel beaten down, like a loser, like you missed on some great opportunity which you will never have again.  Are you starting to get the image…??…  Of course, if you are going to go for what you want, go for it, you are here on earth for it; however, don’t do it out of following society and to be obedient to a pattern, to be like somebody else and have what they have–only idiots do this.  And you are not an idiot, are you…??  Or maybe you are.  Only you know that in the recesses of your own mind, so explore it and find out.  Take the trip in silence, connect to your higher self.  Don’t agree or disagree with me.  Who cares about being right?! 
The truth is the only thing which matters here, so wake up to it!  And understand that life is your playground, but you must meditate, inquire within and discover how to play; if you play, do it for yourself, not out of competition or to be like the rest, so you never quit, so you keep going and enjoying all you experience.

Perfection.

What is being Love…??–Is it to tell the people around you that you are love but in secret you are still unhappy and seeking desperately relationships??–Is it to claim you are not attached but you still find your reason for love and happiness in another person and not in you??  It is hard to understand for many, I know, because society claims, and has taught you since birth, that love is a designed set, concepts, something you acquire with two people or with a family: 1- you like a person so you date, 2- you “fall in love” with that person, 3- you get married and have kids (a bunch of kids, because the more kids you have the more love created in the family, right??). 
And isn’t this love everything in life…??–So if you do not seek a relationship and then marriage, does that mean you don’t know love and that you can never be in love…?? 
But this is a mere concept, steps created by society and that most people follow blindly because they believe romance to be the source of love.  And, of course, one is free to do whatever one wants in his/her life.  But is liking someone, dating, getting married, following all these steps, Love…??  Is it…??  Because if it is then divorces shouldn’t exist, wars shouldn’t exist, prejudice shouldn’t exist, and all the ugliness people of this world create shouldn’t exist.  Because if you truly know love, and if you truly are in love then your whole life changes; you become more emotionally connected, you become kinder, gentler, fear vanishes and you desire harmony and love to everyone.  If you really know love then you don’t just love your partner, but you are love–which means that all you think, feel, and do towards the world is love.  You are love and that is all you know. 
But the world is full of people in love with whomever they date and marry, they follow the steps marked by society–  So how come they still hate others, lie, cheat, do not appreciate the life of other sentient beings, divorce themselves, murder themselves, fight with themselves.  But still everybody you ask claims to know love, right….??  A father loves his son and his wife, but he kills other countries as a military man and also hates immigrants with all his heart.  But he knows love…??  Anyone among you makes sense of this…??  This all happens because no one really knows love, because all they know is what society teaches, levels–i.e., friendship love, family love, love for a job, love for an education, and romantic love being the highest peak of love. 
All they know is to seek, and seek, and seek in the world; but the problem is that when you spend your whole life seeking, you actually deviate yourself from love.  Because in order to seek with success, first you must become love–you must actually love everybody.  If you love all beings, it means you have no fear; if you have no fear, then your love with another will be perfect.  If there is no fear, then you have no reason to hate anything or anyone.  If you have no fear, then you are love–not “in love” but you are love.

Because the source of love is not something you seek in the world, create as a couple, or design by following steps marked by society.  The source of love is an individual meditation, godly, pure, an expansive energy, which brings the perfection of love, because your whole existence becomes this perfection–and now you can love the world with perfection as well.
