In love in life.

Life is the greatest exploration, the ultimate joy and glory; however, without actually paying attention and seeing life for what it really is, it can become a burden to be alive–a struggle, a constant suffering.

Now, to pay attention and see life for what it is you must have a mind of gratitude, because such a wondrous mind is full of love and understanding, even in the midst of challenges and misery around you.

A mind of gratitude clears thinking from negatives and from dark thoughts.  Negatives and dark thoughts could be your complaining, your constant stress and frustration, your empty and lonely feelings, your expectations and envy.

Gratitude is a state of mind which makes you less serious about what happens around you, and it brings you an inner peace and love for living each day.  Living each day with gratitude then strengthens your capacity to love yourself as you are in life, and to love another as they are in life.

Being grateful is something you choose each moment, and so it is not something you just wait and expect to happen in your life.  You make gratefulness happen in life.  You make yourself happy in life.  You make yourself be in love in life.

The dawning of wisdom.

 

knowing-yourself-is-the-beginning-of-all-wisdom-300x300

 

Look deeply into your troubles, into the anger you feel, the loneliness, the envy, the heavy stress, the obsessive desire to possess someone or something; and discover the buried thinking patterns, so you can rise above that feeling and realize that you are bringing this onto yourself.

Complications, hardship, suffering is the construct of our petty, little minds when attached to our physical perceptions.  Everybody seeks dating, commitment, marriage, kids; thus, you observe this, you attach a “happiness” and “love” label to it, and so you develop the desire to copy.

You see others get wealthy, better jobs, expensive cars, great shopping; therefore, you believe that this is the “normal,” that this is what happiness really is, and that you desire to be part of this tradition and collective desire of the unconscious masses.

So, you do this, you struggle to be part of all this society nonsense, and you even fill your mind with constant anxiety in the process.  Why…??  Does it make you truly happy??

Do you even truly understand why you obsess about this and feel the nagging need to be this way, always seeking, copying, competing??  So, this is your ego, the secret obsession you have to achieve more and more; but you judge if it works for you or not.

Inquire into yourself and find out why you seek this and desire to achieve and even belong to the collective, because if you do not inquire into it then you will never really understand yourself, your life, and what love and happiness are beyond any petty desires you may have.

A Happy Life Now.

 

5137647-Jiddu-Krishnamurti-Quote-Happiness-is-strange-it-comes-when-you

 

So, what is life…??  Think about it carefully.  Is life what you desire, what you think and feel, what you project in your mind??  Or is life your behaviors, your choices starting from the Now moment??

See, people believe that they understand what life truly is, so they seek success, money, popularity, they get attached to what they desire and project in their minds.  Some others cling themselves to their past experiences, fearing thus repeating them.

Both of these groups of unconscious people live in illusion, such is the illusion of their irrational minds, pursuing happiness, love, seeking success in the future and getting attached to their past experiences.

But life requires your attention now, because it exist in the Now; therefore, not in your mind, and, evidently, not in your expectations of what you want to happen.  Whatever you are experiencing in your life now, start from here, make the best decisions, pay attention and fall in love with your life as it is now.

The pursuit of happiness is an invention of the unconscious masses.  There is nothing to pursue or chase!  Happiness is in putting all positive energy and attention now.  You enjoy it now.  If you cannot experience happiness in your life now, you will not experience it later either.

Where it lies.

 

quote-self-transformation-is-not-just-about-changing-yourself-it-means-shifting-yourself-to-jaggi-vasudev-87-19-24.jpg

 

When you hear Krishnamurti or Osho, or some other wise person, say that YOU are the world, that YOU are society, this is indeed not some spiritual and philosophical sentence for you to worship and repeat like a parrot without deeply knowing what it means.

It literally means YOU are the world.  If you are anxious, frustrated, suffering about the life of others, it is because you have no peace in your mind.  A truly awakened person sees the suffering in the world, feels for it, tries to help in some way; but then he moves on.

Moving on means to keep your attention inwardly, focusing on building your own peace of mind; because life is about happiness and, even though you must help others, you have to constantly work on YOUR own happiness.  First your health.  First your peace of mind.   First your psychological, emotional, and physical well-being.  Later, the rest.  First, YOU, then others.

The world is unconscious, it can be terrible, immoral, the cause of depression; however, to experience the opposite of this, happiness in you, you must learn to look at the terrible world, live in it, but keep your focus on you, on your wholeness.  This is what the path to Enlightenment, or to happiness, is all about.

Once you truly understand that the path lies inwards and that suffering the world is egoistical, then you will illumine yourself and begin your transformation into a better human being; but until then you are just pursuing your own sense of self-importance, playing the victim, and reflecting your lack of maturity into the world.

Liberation.

 

index

 

Man is trapped by delirium, a sort of self-inflicted, narcissistic codependency which shrinks his awareness and critical thinking process in life–unbeknownst to him, of course:

-He feels empty and lonely, even though he might be surrounded by people.


-He feels he found the truth, even though all he does is go to a church or temple building and read scriptures written by some other men who do not know themselves either.


-He claims to be happy, even though he complains about his life and gets jealous and anxious all the time.


-He claims to be highly moral, even though he kills the environment just to fulfill his own pleasures and expects others to change but not himself.

Now, the ego is the content of someone’s mind.  You mustn’t desire to kill the content of your mind, for it is who you are as a human creature, thus your motivations, your desires to be better. 

You must seek to find these above-mentioned, toxic patterns within your ego, bring high awareness of its activity, and so change your behaviors accordingly; on the other hand, if you do not change your behaviors then you will repeat the same errors and patterns of failure and anxiety.

But if you do, only then, conscience is free from the extremes of the ego activity.  And only then, you can allow your mind to expand and enlighten itself with higher awareness in your behaviors.  And only then, Nirvana state of Buddha, or the Heavenly state described by Jesus can reside in the now highly moral person.

Between Heaven and Hell.

 

index

What creates our experiences in life is our very minds.  The pain of your divorce, the relived tragedies of painful memories, the feelings of not being good enough, the anxiety when you do not have such and such money, the itching desire for possessing somebody, etc.–it is all your mind.

You may, of course, create your own ignorant excuses of why you feel what you feel–i.e., they make me feel like that, I have an inherited mental disease so I am depressed, I am not rich or have a great job so I constantly feel worthless, I am physically unattractive and nobody wants me, my nation’s politics keeps me violent and agitated, etc.

But, you see, by attaching yourself to all these excuses you are feeding the fire, you are increasing the suffering and anxiety, because you are fighting your own struggles, you are denying how you think and feel and labeling it as something wrong to feel, as something evil.  You are saying it is wrong, or even wicked, to feel like that.

In a way of speaking, you are creating demons, you are creating hell, you are creating your own suffering and neglect.  You are doing the opposite of acceptance here.  Can you take a few seconds and ponder this…??

You must accept all that appears in your mind and all that which you feel, ALL of it; for accepting it is welcoming it, which is like making friends with it, making friends with that part of yourself you do not like but respect now.

This psychological behavior of acceptance begins a transmutation in you, because now you are assimilating and absorbing that which you did not like before, so you get to create it and deal with it under your own terms; otherwise, it is just God and The Devil always fighting in your mind, and this struggle brings you your own hellish experience.

The struggle in your mind between what you currently are and what you should be, or want to be, is what breaks you into fragments, and the fragments are what makes you suffer and feel worthless or like you are not living a happy life.

Creating how you feel.

What builds character…??  What gives man and woman their self-respect…??  What gives you honest integrity and capacity to create a heaven for yourself…?? 

What builds the soul of the human creature, what creates value in him, what gets rid of feelings of emptiness and misery, is unquestionably his behavior in the personal and public life.

His strength of character in difficult or challenging situations is everything, because it makes him feel mighty, because it inspires him to feel that he is strong and truthful within himself.

These boosted feelings of strength and truth that he feels when he behaves with integrity in his life, create great self-respect, great self-love; and so, this evaporates any emptiness or darkness within himself.

See, heaven is a state within you which makes you feel whole and truly happy with yourself, with your life in general; and for this you must dedicate your time to behave with integrity in ALL you do, which means to discipline your mind to think in moral values for yourself and in your behaviors towards others.

You project into the world what you are inside, or how you feel inside; therefore, if you feel lazy, or empty, or miserable, or lonely, or immoral, then you will project that same state into your behaviors as well.  And so, your life will always be what you bring into it.

Your life then is a mere reflection of what you are, how of you feel within; hence, it is pointless for you to complain and act out whenever your life turns out depressing or your situations challenging, for your inner states create your outer experience of life.

Your inner states then are managed and kept well nurtured when you choose self-discipline in your actions, through behaviors of integrity, even if you do not feel like it.  Doing good, honest, and noble actions will create that love and happiness you need in order to feel a much better inner state constantly.

The childlike mind.

 

index

 

“Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.” ~ Jesus Christ.

To have a childlike mind is to look at life with full faith and wonder, with positive thinking and a curious expression of yourself to explore further each moment you live.  And have you noticed how little children do not hold grudges for long, and do not carry this silly burden of “broken” hearts societies invented…??

They just go throughout life discovering and absorbing their experiences, and they do it with gladness and love for life.  They do not complain and accept failure, but they remain confident and try over and over again.

They do not judge others, nor worry about what others do; for their attention is upon discovery of themselves in the world.  This is the mind which must be kept in the adult still, so life can be seen as a gift and not as a burden, so loss and pain can be experienced with faith and with a strong spirit which quickly recuperates and moves onto better things.

Appreciating all people, without judging, without hating, without dwelling on past memories, without fantasizing about the future but just living the moment wholly.

This is the mind you must revive in you as an adult, because this mind welcomes challenges in life, because this mind never remains depressed and negative, and because this mind is creative and curious in all situations.

And you must be creative and curious to respond to your life, to accept the difficulties you live daily.  Life yields and brightens, as heavenly existence, to the childlike mind, to those minds which remain positive, curious, and faithful in the face of chaos.

“Being the valley of the world, eternal virtue will never desert you, and you become like a little child anew.” ~ Lao Tzu.

Acts of care.

To do everything in love is to deny access to your mind to thoughts of negativity and complaint, to avoid the rule of dark and nagging feelings.  In order to enjoy each moment, one must seek acts of care–acts in which you can put your whole energy and carry them out without frustration and stress.

Loving yourself and your behaviors because you have integrity and you bring out integrity is what matters in life, so you may create better opportunities and better futures for yourself and for others.

 


“Acts of care“

Were I a flower to be beauty without fears!
Were I the wind to know life without binds!
What if I were love to exist without tears??
What if you and I stopped telling great lies.

For to find meaning is to seek acts of care,
For in care there is the beautiful flower.
I have seen the immortal beauty to share,
Beyond the petty excuses which devour.

Nearer and sweeter this music draws;
The music in my acts of love expands.
In this one moment I meet Universal Law,
As my moral behavior heavenly stands.

All Nature responds to the eternal call;
The call which carries my attention here.
My behavior of integrity brings it to all;
Anxiety and fear in morals do disappear.51914351_632834247149941_8022915865735331840_n

The Meaning of Life.

The mind wanders here and there, and questions filled by confusion and doubt appear to swallow reason in many people; but, however it is, each moment we experience, each thing we think and feel, each behavior and activity we do gives meaning to life.

It is not that achieving big goals like marriage, a great paying job, becoming a wise person, being this or that in great measure, give meaning to our lives; but all we do each day must be meant to create meaning.

3_meaning_life_quotes.jpg

The essence of existence, the essence of life is change, evolution, always moving forward; but life in reality has no meaning ascribed or given to it, because life is pure consciousness, and consciousness is molded and directed to create this or that by YOUR mind.

So, the ones who understand this, can actually give great meaning to their lives each second they are alive, without depression and doubt.  The ones who do not understand this, cannot actually find the creative meaning of their lives no matter what they do; so doubt and depression will consume them, and they will seek out there for meaning endlessly, pointlessly.

And you know when people say “I should be this or that by now” or “I deserve to be this or that in my life right now”…??  This is nonsense they create because they do not understand life at all.  Because life’s meaning is not a destiny or future, or a big goal or something you deserve because you have a plan or word hard.

Life’s meaning is the one you create each second of each day, by creating in your mind this meaning right now.  So if you cannot give a meaning to your life right now, this second, you are missing the point of being alive and having the opportunity to create your very life.

And you create meaning by enjoying each moment with bliss and awareness, and not by running after big goals and accomplishing great activities which give you pleasure.  Remember this always.
