About your excuses…

You have to admit, your excuses are making you weak and blocking you from reaching all that you desire with a noble and loving heart.  Excuses might come with your own so-called “rationalization” or “truth,” but you are lying to yourself and allowing your comfortable ego to make you feel that false sense of security and pride in the very face of your own unchallenged weaknesses; however, this is hurting you slowly, hurting your chances in all aspects of your life.  You hide yourself behind your past experiences lived, your family traits in your genetics, your character and way of doing things; but you are afraid of change, either consciously or subconsciously, because you want to be successful, loved by others, happy, proud of your future noble and serious accomplishments, which represent change… and yet you are stubborn or lazy in your own lies… and yet you are afraid of change…

You, as a human being, are formed by trillions upon trillions of tiny organisms or cells, and so made able to interact and carry on in this world by its magnificent genetic codes or informational energy.  Isn’t this very mystery inside the cell wonderful….?!–how each cell glues together to form your brain and body.  Every cell nucleus and its surrounding structure contains information and energy, that information specifically is called by science DNA. 
DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is this self-replicating material present in nearly all living organisms, as the main constituent of chromosomes; furthermore, it is the carrier of genetic information–which means it is what gives you your unique appearance, traits, and all distinctive qualities which form your persona as human and as the person you are right now.  I have mentioned that our cells carry information and energy.  The energy is linked to your thoughts, and the energy transports the information.  Epigenetics is the science that says that you can heal and transform that information by your thoughts, beliefs, and overall thinking patterns.
There is no rationality in thinking you are fated to remain fat because your family is fat.  There is no excuse in saying you cannot achieve your dreams because your character in your current living is extremely flawed.  It is stupid for you to think that you cannot change and become better in any aspect.  Your own ego, that loud mouth sounding in your head, is the only one stopping you from becoming better, from healing, from awakening, from achieving your dreams.  So, stop creating excuses where there are none, stop being lazy and remaining comfortable in your own mental mess; you have the same chance to become better that anybody has.
Your situations, your environments, might be different; but your capacities, your genetic material is transformed and formed by your mind, as is everybody else’s…

Childhood.

best-future-quotes-my-past-is-not-about-regretsthere-are-no-bad-memories

 

Memories exist for a divine reason.  Your childhood was what it was for a divine reason, however painful, miserable, complicated.  Your ego may choose to hate your past, hurt you further now as an adult, and make you hard because of your past; however, your ego is not divine, it does not understand why you lived what you lived.  You cannot find God through your ego.  You cannot find love through your ego.  And you cannot find peace through your ego.
You must embrace your childhood, your past, whatever you lived, and see the lessons with an untainted heart which knows no resentment and prejudice…

 


“Childhood.”

Do you know that rich earth and sacred sun…??
Do you know those little children having fun…??
Have you ever felt the mud here and there…??
What about such divine connection everywhere…??
Yes, I remember the land so beautiful and free,
O my body and soul give thanks to thee!
God spoke to me through ducks and cattle,
Love was born via innocent play and battle.
Days of wonder and joy built character thus,
Friends, games, waiting for the school bus;
Nights of weeping as I grew in responsibility,
Exams, anger, moments without tranquility.
What’s the world done, child, to hurt you so…??
Have you found the lessons in pain yet to grow…??
My youth was painful, difficult; but it brought light.
Have you questioned yours beyond the fright…??

Discover yourself.

BSweaaQCcAAhSQN
What is it that keeps you frustrated and bitter in some situations in your life…??  Why is it that you are anxious and easily manipulated into anger and all sorts of distractions from the people around you and the media–thus from society…??  You pay attention to others and follow what your family, your friends, your religions, your traditions have taught you, don’t you...??  Are you truly free this way…?? 
 Finding yourself, discovering your unique values and shaping them into great behaviors which bring true acceptance and love into your life is exactly why you are here, on earth, endowed with your physical mind and body.  Careers, money, beliefs, religiousness, family traditions, and others, might be important to you–and that goes with each person’s views.  But, no matter the age you have, the gender you are, the place where you live, you are you and not what others expect from you or what society says you should be.

What keeps you frustrated and anxious, reactive and always complaining and arguing, is not the situations or the people but your mind and the discipline you allow it to have; thus, the discipline you must allow your mind to have is the attention inwardly directed, because when your attention is directed inwardly then you have no desire to focus on the things that stress you outwardly and you are not distracted by what is around you–even if people are not loving and friendly around you.  You must discover this by finding your unique values and talents in anything and in everything you do–in mopping the floors, in reading or studying, in your job, in the small details of your relationships, etc. etc. 

35332514_475254592907908_2545041708001787904_n

If you do this, you will explore yourself, illumine yourself truly, and you will discover that life is these moments; opposite to this, society tells us that life is the big things like a career which gives you good money and position, and also things like getting married and having a bunch of kids–all lies (which might have some importance, but little at best) which take you to forget about yourself and the small activities in life. 
And it is in the small activities where you find the eternal values and higher awareness to discover yourself, and so when you truly discover yourself your attention falls inwardly; thus, self-love grows and nothing bothers you anymore, because you are now focused on yourself where only true love and freedom to be unique fills your mind–meaning that your mind has no place for stress, anxiety, or anger anymore.

Thus Awaken…

awakening

Do you realize why pain, confusion, temptation, anxiety, and all suffering exist in your life…??  Can you understand that what truly gives rich value to life is that same exact pain and suffering which you feel…??

As a human being one may only experience happiness, joy, love, and all harmony if one has struggled with their opposites first, learned from their opposites with an open mind.  Awakening only comes after you have seen this and experienced it yourself, because physical existence carries both opposites and these both make physical life.  A mother’s deep love and unique bond to his son or daughter wouldn’t be as strong as it is if in childbirth the pain was not extremely unpleasant and even life-threatening; therefore, a part of her has been ripped out, she feels it, thus she remains deeply connected to her kid her whole life, even in great distance…  And life wouldn’t be appreciated without loss or death.  As you suffer the great loss of a loved one, there is a lesson being imparted to you in the quiet corners of your mind; therefore, after you grieve or mourn you must surrender to this quiet corner in your mind where the voice of suffering may turn into the voice of wisdom.
e695630353f82527c749c3928eba538f--deep-thoughts-meditation

One of the passages in the Bible says that it is easier for the poor to enter the ‘house of God’ (‘awakening into wisdom’) than for the rich.  This means that the poor, due to lack of all societal and financial means, may go through much more pain than the rich, thus his mind might turn all his suffering into wisdom/into an awakening.  So whatever you go through, remind yourself that all suffering, all failures, all misfortunes, all diseases have a purpose; and you mustn’t doubt this, because such doubt brings you more confusion and suffering.  You have to see through your pain and turn it into a strength, wisdom, experience which can shape you into a better, more prepared person; for this is the purpose of all your suffering, and by embracing it, by overcoming it, you grab the scepter of power.
Buddha.  Jesus.  Muhammad.  Lao Tzu.  Osho.  This is how the sage becomes the sage.  No sage or wise man is born a sage or wise man.  He becomes awakened by learning from his own pain; but he must be prepared to see through his pain instead of just complain and moan about it.

The Seashell.

Ever feel lonely and seek distractions out there, solutions to this nagging feeling…??  When the seeking is pointless, which you must see; for the seeking can only exacerbate the illness brooding in you, thus create more desire over and over again as it consumes your very soul–i.e., your sane rationality, your honest hopes, your vital dreams, your own affections…

 

“The seashell.”

I found a seashell in the fair sands
Gleaming under the warmest light;
In it I found the whisper I thought lost,
In it I discovered what I had tossed.

The seeking had been the dark abyss,
It had polluted my soul in darkness;
I had lost myself in the empty desire
Of a capricious nature–indeed so dire.
O how barren what I saw in the world!
Loneliness, frustration, anger held me;
For I truly observed my own reflection,
So I cried all the time without affection.
But O how blind and lost in the senses!
You were there all along, patiently waiting,
Gleaming under the very warmest light,
Blessed by Divinity–such glorious sight.

I finally stopped the search and contemplated
The many tears in me–the suffering, the misery;
Whatever held me hostage was my choosing,
I stubborn was in my desire–how confusing!
There was no end to the allure of the rabble,
Empty words of romance and promises broken;
Society had me as I desired what they had,
But I saw through the vain deceit–I am glad!
And it was the friendship with my very tears
The one which liberated my trapped soul;
And it was the seashell found under the sun,
Yes, listened I the whisper–O misery undone!

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…

The simplicity of a raindrop.

mysteries-of-our-universe-2-638
Rap-Rap!– I cannot help but wonder what lies beyond what my physical eyes can see, what is there sleeping among cosmic dreams and stardust, what is that which immerses man in ancient mysteries and dead civilizations.  As I sit and ponder about life and my origins, the human faces seem so dim and the emotions so intense in my rushing mind, the alien worlds appear so distant yet so close to me; and I can really see entire galaxies in a raindrop, I can feel the calm and affection taking me over as I observe through my windowpane.  The shiny droplets emanate life, as I feel the incredible energy of the first unicellular organism appearing in the heart of an ancient water corpuscle, the energy of the baby being born and of the old man dying, and the energy of millions upon millions of stars incurring a beautiful beginning and reaching a terrible end.  The mysteries of life fill my mind thus like blood fills the many miraculous passages of my veins and arteries.  What does the water in a raindrop carry then if not life and all its mysteries…??

Rap-Rap!– O how many fools are there in this world of ours that confuse their minds with trivialities and nonsense?!  They seek to know and understand all the mysteries of life by empty knowledge and pleasure pursuits of their society.  They even search for answers to their problems from gods up in the sky and dead men.  They forget about the nature of the raindrop!  For it knows.  Nature knows because it carries all of time and space contained inside a so-called “insignificant” water droplet, such which travels from the vapors of the highest cloud down to my very windowpane with its Rap-Rap! sound.  This divine sound is the very harmony of the universe to my heavy-laden ears, and the illuminating peace of my soul connecting to it, freeing my mind from the overwhelming chaos of society and its burdens.

Rap-Rap!– The cloudy skies are in deep meditation and their soundless consciousness links to mine, it speaks to my heart in no-mind and vanishes all my nagging questions, it dispels my impatient intellect and brings the understanding of meditation upon me.  Yes, and I come back to myself!  To the one true me I had forgotten and buried under stress and thought-forms of joy and also of misery.  I connect with the cosmos as I observe this one raindrop sliding down my windowpane.  And I wonder what is it most people think about when they observe what I observe–if they ever do that is…  Do the Sun and the Moon ever speak about us and our impatience…??  Do they ever have doubts or become confused about their own origins and immerse themselves into questioning life…??  Or is it the very demon in man who thinks he is separated from nature and believes he is lost and alone and thus questions existence…??  Perhaps the relief from all questioning lies inside nature, indeed inside the simplicity of a raindrop.

About confidence…

images
About confidence…
There are people who develop a false sense of confidence, because they still live in the grand dream of their own vanity and insecure egos.  Yes, I see them walking proudly, talking down to others, flaunting their feathers like peacocks, taking what they want from others, competing and singing loud tunes of tyranny, without a hint of love in their actions but pure obsession brooding in them.  But this is not confidence, O I know!, for inside they are terrified of losing, fearful of being less, empty and searching for ways to fill this great void they keep hidden from others.  What they carry so proudly is not confidence but fear of rejection and loss; for not being popular is the scorching hell of their superficial and misguided affairs with the ignorant world.

About confidence…
Yes, I can say that confidence is the result of the communion and harmony in you.  Real confidence which cannot be stolen, bought, or ever diseased.  For this confidence is divine and pure, love-based and not attached to anything or anyone at all.  The light I see and feel coming down from heaven into my conscience, yes, such is clarity and truth strengthening my resolve, and such evolves into confidence on which I can always rely and trust because it is me, the real me and not the masks I wear for them.

About confidence…
And who told you about confidence…??  Because they lied to you.  And who says you learn confidence from watching or reading others, or from desiring to be like others…??  They have said that to you because they do not know confidence themselves.  Confidence must spring from you, it must be clear like the most beautiful and untainted tropical waters, and it must be a realization within you.  Truth is not spoken, or heard, or read, or watched; but this is just the experience from others before you.  Truth brings confidence if you embrace your strengths and also your weaknesses.  Question is: Can you rise like the phoenix…??  Associated with the Sun, a phoenix obtains new life by arising from the ashes of its weaker predecessor.  The weaker you, the follower you, the lost you, the chained to the world you.  Truth brings confidence and it is inside yourself, for you initiate the eternal flame and rise from the old ashes like the mighty phoenix.  So do you know about confidence…??

Shall I raise you to the heavens…??

Relationships are about respect and communication, and also both parties must not lose the admiration for one another; furthermore, there has to be that learning capacity, that possibility for growth and further connection as the two evolve together. What is the mature relationship if not a mutual desire for elevation, where two souls meet and ascend together blissfully as one with acceptance and commitment to true love…??
adac5d03c24912457e6f80af7074587d

“Shall I raise you to the heavens…??“

Shall I raise you to the heavens…??
As you radiate your beauty into my very dream
As the glowing stars do tonight under this poet.
Your sweet voice as the murmur of the stream
I hear within my troubled head–this I know it!
Love speaks to me through the cool air tonight,
It tells me you are a fallen goddess of beauty,
Such a vision of wonderful wisdom to my sight;
And I feel angels sing to deliver my very duty,
For I must cherish your beauty and your wit,
Protect your purity as the very gold all my days;
For you inspire and elevate me as holy writ,
You bless my existence as life-giving sun rays.

Shall I raise you to the heavens…??
I hear your light footsteps and I weaken,
For my heart is yours as I belong to you;
To my surprise you send me a beacon,
Your loveliness as never before I knew.
Love is the rising essence which unites,
O It covers us in feathers of golden dust!
I shall take you to the greatest heights,
We shall fly together in heavenly wind gust.

“Love is friendship that has caught fire. It is quiet understanding, mutual confidence, sharing and forgiving. It is loyalty through good and bad times. It settles for less than perfection and makes allowances for human weaknesses.”  ~ Ann Landers; American advice columnist and writer.

The Light of One Soul.

Once there was a small boy named Shankar.  He belonged to a poor family.  And one day, he was crossing through the forest carrying some woods, when he saw an old man who was very hungry.  Shankar wanted to give him some food, but he did not have food even for his own; so, sad as he was, he continued on his path.  On his way then, later, he saw a deer who was very thirsty.  He wanted to give him some water, but he did not have water even for himself; so, sad as he was, he went on his way ahead…

Then he saw a man who wanted to make a camp but he did not have woods, so Shankar asked about his problem and then gave some woods to him.  In return, he gave him some food and water.  Now he went back to the old man and gave him some food and gave some water to the deer.  The old man and the deer were very happy.  Shankar then happily went on his way…

One day Shankar fell down the hill!  He was in pain and he couldn’t move; no one was there to help him.  But, the old man who he had helped before saw him, he quickly came and pulled him up the hill.  Shankar had many wounds on his legs.  The deer whom shankar had given water saw his wounds and quickly went to the forest and brought some herbs; it so happened then that after some time his wounds were covered.  All of them were very happy that they were able to help each other…

index

When we give a good example and help the ones in need, we are truly helping ourselves; not because we expect them to do the same for us, but because we are filling our conscience with truth, we are building a stronger and valuable persona in us, and because we are nourishing our own heart with pure and beautifying love–i.e., a love which brings glow and shine into our lives, and a love which brings bliss into all we do. 

We are all human beings, and as human beings we all have that inner light within us but also we have that terrible darkness; and so, each one of us must find a balance between our divine light and our terrible darkness.  Moments of bliss.  Moments of misery.  We all need to help each other, especially help the weaker and innocent among us, and see that we are truly the same; as we all feel joy and feel pain, as we all desire to feel loved and happy…  No matter how upset, how hurt you are, always remind yourself of this…
