Beyond genius.

It’s not what you look at that matters, it’s what you see.” ~ Henry David Thoreau; American essayist, poet, philosopher, abolitionist, naturalist, tax resister, development critic, surveyor, and historian.

“A fool thinks himself to be wise, but a wise man knows himself to be a fool.” ~ William Shakespeare.

Genius and wisdom is like love and understanding, one is not true without the other, one is not the real essence without the other; that is, genius lies in the deeper understanding of something, and so, the more genius means the deeper the understanding.

The greatest genius there is then, is the deeper understanding of yourself and of the wholeness of Nature, because this comprehension which goes beyond time and space is divine wisdom, superb genius above all other.

This genius lives deep inside all of us and it can only come out to the surface of our thoughts if the ego is well understood at all times, and also if the difference between what your heart whispers and what your ego shouts at you is well understood by you. The seed is the essence of it all, the ultimate and eternal truth of it all; therefore, genius is embracing, living, experiencing this truth in yourself beyond the intellect/the ego.

But this genius, of course, is not the mere creative genius an artist may have, for example, or the genius society praises.

For this genius, knowing and living the ultimate truth in yourself, is the genius of Jesus, Buddha, Lao Tzu, and other great men; this genius is the superb wisdom which knows no fear, because it understands and embraces fear, thus when this happens fear turns back to love, and so all is conquered and happiness is constant.

This is the cosmic or conscious essence that we all are and that it flows through Infinite Intelligence, which has no limitations and no source. This genius goes beyond the thoughts and imagination one may come up with when painting a masterpiece or building a great business, this genius is a deeper insight into life because it flows with life, and this genius is not of the mind of man but it lives deep within man. There are no heavenly or hellish forces to battle, for this genius all is natural, all is neutral; however, the only positive or negative, heavenly or hellish exists in the mind of man, his considered mortality, in his deceiving ego, in his lower artistic genius, as great and praised by the world as it is, confined and bound to time and space.

If the purpose of life is to discover true and constant happiness, then why not reach deep inside you and bring this genius up to the surface of your thoughts…??

Instead of reading and hearing about Jesus, Buddha, and all these dead men, why not becoming like these great men yourself…?? Wouldn’t that be much better for yourself and your life…??

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

The taming of the brute.

“In the age of technology there is constant access to vast amounts of information. The basket overflows; people get overwhelmed; the eye of the storm is not so much what goes on in the world, it is the confusion of how to think, feel, digest, and react to what goes on.” Criss Jami; American poet, essayist, author, and existentialist philosopher.

“Until you realize how easily it is for your mind to be manipulated, you remain the puppet of someone else’s game.” ~ Evita Ochel; consciousness expansion teacher, author, optimal health and wellness expert, holistic nutritionist, yoga and meditation teacher, and web TV host.

When we experience anything at all, our minds create thoughts regarding that experience; however, our task and challenge is to choose those thoughts with wisdom, thus lead ourselves to happy outcomes.

But, having said that, most of the population of the world are ignorant of this, even though they can be good people they let thoughts randomly guide them, thus create the outcomes in their lives; and this is so because the ego lives in the reaction of the ignorant.

In order to tame your own ego, control and choose your thoughts, so people, events, and the world do not control you, you must be fully conscious and aware of your reactions, you must not react but wait, give time to information to be analyzed, gather facts and involve the wisdom of your heart.

If you only react based on knowledge your ego gives you in the moment, you might just fall prey of your stubborn ignorance.

True intelligence to decide does not live in the mind, because in the mind you only find facts and data your physical senses gather; and precisely this most of the time may trick you.

True intelligence is absorbed by your heart through Infinite Intelligence; and there is where you find wisdom to make big decisions.

True intelligence is the one you must use daily, and true intelligence comes from the Infinite Mind, known as the subconscious mind. The subconscious works through the silencing of your mortal mind/your ego/the brute thoughts popping up all the time.

When your heart is pure, or without the influence of your ego and the beliefs and reactive thoughts it forces upon it, then you can listen to this Infinite Intelligence or subconscious; thus, patient and wise communion with your heart and its whispering give you that mighty insight you need into any decision you make.

Be patient, don’t react, wait for the heart, do not follow simply your impulsive ego.

Business mind. Self-help life truths.

Like water…

“Progress is impossible without change, and those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything.” ~ George Bernard Shaw; Irish playwright, critic and polemicist.

“You must be shapeless, formless, like water. When you pour water into a cup, it becomes the cup. When you pour water into a bottle, it becomes the bottle. When you pour water into a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Water can drip and it can crash… Become like water, my friend.”

All over the world people confuse intelligence with knowledge–i.e., knowledge is information, rigid data which serves a purpose in analyzing and categorizing certain constructs and patterns; but, on the other hand, intelligence goes beyond it, because it is our inner strength and our imagination at work here, our adaptability to change, and the realization that life is ever moving forwards like the the wise but steady flow of a beautiful river.

It is not intelligence to have memory and recite Shakespeare or do math equations, because these are patterns you can re-construct and analyze in your mind from a data-base in this same conscious mind–most likely learned from school, a teacher, or a book. This is what the world praises and recognizes as intelligence and genius, but this is just the seat of thought/the ego–our conscious thought is just the surface of our mind/our humanity, but intelligence lies beyond the surface. Take for example your human body–even though ignorant people think you are what you see in the mirror, you really are the energy moving your body/the divine energy within each cell making up the physical body.
