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.

The Mind of Love.

love-looks-not-with-the-eyes-but-with-the-mind..jpg

 

Love is not man-made or a design of thought, but we must nurture it in our minds as well; and so in order to become understanding and experience its divine essence, its divine origins. To truly love ourselves, and another as well.

The intellect is ruled by concepts, philosophies, beliefs, opinions; therefore, all may form obsessions, stubbornness, goals. This can be good or bad for the evolution of our humanity; but it can certainly never be true love, for the intellect cannot know true love.

So, our minds must see beyond the intellect, beyond personal egos, to actually allow access to true love, to true connection from The Divine into the crudeness of our humanity, into the crudeness of our minds.

From there, it is all a question of keeping the intellect away from love.

 

“The Mind of Love“


O, the Mind of Love is gone from man!
Its divine grace and magic trampled.
How do I fly to the heights of heaven
When the intellect has stolen my wings …??
Just know the Father in God is wisdom,
And know the Mother in God is true love;
Both must be One Soul of Light in me,
As my being becomes freedom’s dove.

To rend a hundred veils and just be,
To do away with society and the world,
To acquire liberation from goals of “I”–
This is The Mind of Love of the lovers.
Within a silent mind, beyond petty time;
Within a simple gaze, the whole universe:
It is how The Mind of Love exists truly,
It is how our lives remain a poetic verse.

Find the hidden miracle.

Future love, future happiness, future freedom–these do not exist more than just imaginations and machinations of your ego.  “I will be thankful when I have this.”  “I am so close to being happy.”  “A little more work and I’ll achieve my goal.”  These and more are false manifestation of our ego.

Life is now and it is to enjoy now, not to suffer for what you do not have or have lost and want to recuperate.  Accept your life as it is now, whether your ego labels it pleasant or unpleasant; and enjoy what you have now, do not follow dreams and neither fall into memories of past losses.

If you do not accept your life as it is now, then you will suffer more anxiety and live on psychological suffering, which will manifest on physical suffering as illnesses.  There are people in the world who are homeless and have less than you; but they still live happily in the moment day by day.  There are people in the world who have lost more than you and have suffered much more than you; but they, nevertheless, do not allow depression to bring them down.

 

Now, this is wisdom; to celebrate your life each day, each moment, because life is now.  So, whatever you lost, you lost.  Whatever is gone, is gone.  And whatever will be, will be.  Learn to wisely live with it.

  But, do you know what is under your control…?? Do you know what builds your experience of love and happiness…?? The wisdom is Now, the happiness is Now, the choices are Now; so, however you choose to live your life, remind yourself that there is only Now.

So, you must find the joy, the good side of things now, whatever you experience seek in there something good; for there is ALWAYS something, for he is wise who finds the hidden joy in the moment.  Find the hidden miracle.

Maturing into…

Understanding cannot happen in any relationship until the “need” for winning and controlling, for trying to change someone and criticizing that same someone, is gone from your mind.  The ego in ourselves always wants to control, show off, intimidate, and compete; however, this is exactly what destroys a relationship, so a relationship has to be born out of pure love if it is to truly work.

That pure love has nothing to do with your ego, because love is not a concept your mind creates, or a certain way things should be, or your desire to control and design your personal view of the perfect relationship.  Pure love is understanding, and understanding goes beyond intellect; therefore, understanding is of the brave and truly intelligent, because understanding takes seeing past your anger and pride, past your desires and ambitions, and to understand is to be truly patient and respectful of someone else.

Each one of us is different, molded by different experiences which give us different views on life; but, that is why to mature is to step out of your own ego and see the experience of another, so you can understand and accept another, and so love can be allowed to be born in your human experience.

Love is UNDERSTANDING.  Love is happiness.

Divine Behaviors.

Love is not a word.  Truth is not philosophy.  They are higher principles which must be lived if one is to truly be awaken and understand one’s own life and the world.  Principles must penetrate your whole body and become your everyday behavior, your purpose to live daily; but, not just for the sake of the superior human being within you, not just to embrace divinity, but also to guide the lives of others with the example of true awakening.  This is true love.

“Principles.“

Out of vain drunkards spit words of law,
An elegant but dry philosophy from them;
For no one applies what their lips say,
For no one behaves in such a way.

The sanity has dwindled greatly thus,
And the people has fallen from Grace;
Morals are neglected, utterly denied,
Ethics are banished, not even tried.

The punishment is severe, indeed unjust;
Consciousness has been buried long ago.
Does anybody rules himself on principles….??
Do you know the substance of miracles…??

Once the truth is upon a mind which sees,
It cannot just be verbalized and forgotten;
For love and truth are actions you live,
As every day you feel your heart beat.

Apply yourself.

It is truly important to understand that humanity is asleep, lives asleep, works asleep, forms families and grows old asleep, and finally dies asleep.  Living just like under a magic spell, it sounds funny but it is actually true; because they have created religions, different views of love, political divides and hatred, and each person or group has their own view of morality and of that which is divine–i.e., if people really consider anything in life to be divine, IN ACTUAL APPLICATION, not in philosophy and empty words.  And why are they asleep…??

One word: “FASCINATION.”  Fascination which becomes obsession and ignorance in their unruly minds without them knowing it.  People live fascinated and absorbed by the world, its attractions, and by their own selfish desires–which most of the time are not considered selfish by their egos:

The petty drunkard (including all kinds of drugs) lives fascinated by alcohol, women, parties, and all carnal and psychological pleasures.  The average woman lives fascinated by her own reflection in the mirror, and so she lives her life shopping and thinking about beautifying herself more in sheer vanity, while her mind suffers her neglect and remains empty her whole life.  The plain worker is honest and faithful, but blindly fascinated by his/her job and his/her family.  The religious person remains fascinated by his own beliefs, scriptures, rituals, and teachers.

Everybody lives in their own little world.  Everybody focuses on what is outside of them, like a little child in front of blinding lights they cannot deviate their attention from it.  Meanwhile, the consciousness, the true ticket to love, happiness, to divinity and understanding remains trapped behind their tyrannous ego full of themselves and their own beliefs and selfish views–all due to the fascination with the mundane world.

 

There must be a RADICAL revolution in the mind of each person in order to stop all this fascination and study the self.  A radical revolution is not just knowledge but the APPLICATION of this factual knowledge, as most people deceive themselves by thinking that knowing what is good makes them good; thus, a fool remains asleep by not applying the knowledge he acquires. 

And that is what you must do if you truly desire to awaken from this sleep:  Teach yourself.  Apply your knowledge.  Seek and empower yourself by becoming your knowledge.  Otherwise you cannot claim to be awaken.

Apply to yourself.

How do you actually change yourself…?? What is the mental process which facilitates your actual change of behavior and thus lifestyle…??  Having high moral character as a human being does not have much to do only with the words you speak and merely the thoughts you entertain; however important these are, what actually makes you a better, truthful, awakened human being is your actions.  This seems silly even, but the truth is that most people have great knowledge and speak kind and wise words while their actions are not wise at all.

This is because the ego of people tend to wallow in comfort like pigs wallow in mud, the ego is self-righteous; thus, most of us believe that by getting spiritual or wise knowledge and getting a mouthful of enlightening words one has high standards of morality and walks the right path.  They read the scriptures, listen to wise words, pray, meditate, acquire great knowledge; but they never actually apply any of it, they are empty souls fooling themselves at each step they take.  So, what is the mindset they should have to begin the change in their lives…??

The mindset they MUST have is that of love for themselves, love for individual change, love for their path of righteousness.  And yes, when you apply yourself and you change out of true love for yourself you may find some discomfort at the beginning, because it takes time to accept a new behavior and change your lifestyle, and because your ego may disturb you and tempt you into falling into the same old pattern; nevertheless, the rewards of constantly changing and acquiring higher levels of morality are your own enlightenment through the awakening of your conscience to make better choices in your life.

So, the key to change is to APPLY what you learn, what you read.  For example, many people fill their mouths with Jesus and how great he was, and how he taught love and tolerance; however, these same people do not tolerate other nations, they abhor immigrants, feel superior to other religions, and have many problems at their own homes due to their lack of comprehension of love and tolerance.  See, no one is above these mistakes, so one must be constantly self-aware and APPLY to oneself what one knows to be true, says as truth, and reads as truth.

Three to Divine Love.

Love has been distorted by society, by each person’s ego; it has been made an opinion, a belief, a thing which exists only if the ego is in a good mood–so we have romance, friendship, family, nationalistic, and various sorts of so-called “love.”  But this love of the masses is not eternal but created by man.  Under the heavy and dirty layers of these you find the spiritual love or divinity of God, that which man and woman claim to know but which still is not shown in their actions.  Look at the world.  Look at your society.  Look at your own life.  In 99% of cases, the ego tells people what love is, and people end up suffering for it, and the world ends up suffering for it.

So what is divine love…??  In order to understand divine love, the love of God, one must understand what a soul is.  The spirit is something we all have, it is the substance of energy sustaining our bodies.  But the soul YOU must build, because to have a full soul is tied to morality and ethics; however, we are born only with a soul-seed in order to develop ourselves and grow that seed.  As one grows one must learn to live by higher principles, embodying higher truth and morals in all aspects; most people, as nice as they sound, do not do this, thus their soul is not whole.


Divine love comes to your conscious experience as a delight, always constant and full of wisdom and understanding:

1) (Filial Love) you must accept yourself in all terms, accept your emptiness and work on it, stop seeking pleasures to fill that void.

2) (Agapic Love) you must seek the growth of your true self and stop filling your ego with beliefs, imaginations, pleasures, and knowledge to feel superior over others, and so you have to meditate, pray, be humble and truthful in all you do in order to lessen the hold of your ego.

3) (Erotic or Creative Love) you must transmute your wild impulses and wild desires in order to attend on higher and more creative endeavors of the mind, focus on developing talents and on other things which can help you ascend and get in touch with your true self; because narrow is the gate and the animal cannot walk it, only the human being with a full soul can.

Only following these one can embrace and become full love, build a full soul and raise oneself above the pettiness of a trapped, egoistical, absurd, opportunistic mind.

The blindness of groups.

Protestants, Catholics, Intellectuals, Mormons, Atheists. Muslims, Democrats, Revolutionaries, Republicans, Military, and so on and so forth.  Each one of these groups lives in their own little world, thus their own little vision, their own little rules, their own little philosophy of life.  All this creates division and ignorance, because each group can only understand and see the content of their own little world (creates ignorance), and because each group divides itself from the rest as they believe strongly that they are right and the others wrong (superiority and inferiority complexes are built/the creation of right and wrong in division).

Everybody is right and everybody is wrong, which means the truth is clouded, distant from their conscience.  They create their own truth through their own beliefs, through their own stubborn and fixed philosophies, through their own close-minded interpretations of life, through the games they create for themselves–each ignorant and asleep group creates the idea which gives pleasure and boosts the egotism of that specific group.  And this selfishness and INVOLUTION from conscious illumination they do not see, or even understand, but surely ignore; for they are like pigs wallowing in their own filth, and like the pig they ignore that they are wallowing in filth, because to the pig the filth is heaven/its own truth.

What is the problem…??  The problem is their morals, their characters, their comprehension of love, of life, and of each other.  If each group stays in their own beliefs, ideas, philosophies, illusions, then there is no chance of seeing and understanding the big picture–each group is living in a room and never actually experienced other rooms, thus they have learned that each their own rooms are the best and true rooms.  And love is just what they believe it is–i.e., “I love only MY people and the rest is not my concern,” “I love only MY nation and the rest not so much,” “MY political party is true and right so the rest is not.,” “I love only people who believe in MY God because the rest are too stupid to see MY truth,” etc. etc.

The Egg. A reincarnation story.

A beautiful and intuitive void, white light and a glorious spectrum of colors resembling The Mother of all mothers, Mother Earth. He opened his eyes and looked around in a daze, “…Wh–Where am I…??” The voice came from the background, this man looked in corporeal form like anybody would, “Don’t fear, you are surely everywhere and nowhere. You are safe.” Then the man said, “Who are you??” Memories came to him rushing like fierce currents, ” I–I remember a car skidding towards me. Am I…dead…?! Is this the afterlife…??” And the man who looked like anybody answered calmly, “I am that which ‘I AM’ and yet anybody you know, but you never sought after me in the right place, thus you cannot really recognize me now. And, yes, you can call this the afterlife, if you still think death is the end of life. I call it That Moment which Changes Eternally.”

The man then stood up and marveled at the colorful spectra about him–but soon pangs of worry seize him! “What about my wife and child?! I have left them alone! I have to go back!!” Then the I AM smiled kindly and said, “You are truly blessed with a good heart, for you know to put your loved ones before you; and this is the Light of your Soul knocking, and as long as you answer it will always give identity and worth to your life.” The still concerned man insisted, “But what about them?!” The I AM continued, “Come, let us walk through this joyous Eden.” So they did. And the innocent animals were welcoming the man into their perfect land, and the birds sang sacred praises to THE ALL. Them The I AM continued, “To be honest, their grief is passing and their hearts are joyous, because although you did love them you never found a way to show it. They are somewhat relieved that you are free now, and that they are free from the life you had designed for them as well.

A tear rolled down his eyes, but a tear of pure bliss because he truly loved his family and knew they were better without him, “So what now?? Am I going to Hell…??” The I AM smiled again, then looked at him with a blessing, “No. You call this reincarnation–a new opportunity to reach full bliss, a new opportunity to find yourself and ascend to my heights.” The man frowned in thought, then added, “To ascend to your heights…?? Well, tell me, what is the meaning of life then…??” They kept walking, and the I AM soon replied, “Why do you ask me?? Why does everybody ask the same down there?? Don’t you know that of all my Creations man is the only creature still seeking that answer in a thought form. Look around you–” And the man did so. “The innocent animals, the wonderful plants, the silent rocks, the fresh waters, the wise earth beneath your feet. Do you think they are confused and asking questions to themselves about the meaning of life??” The man fell silent, humbled by THE WORD, then said again, “So, where do I go now…??” The I AM said, “You shall see when you come out of the womb, perhaps to the past, perhaps to the future, but always in the present; for the world and all Cosmic Creation is an Egg, and my children come out of that Egg dozens upon dozens of times, and the meaning is always flowing in that Egg, thus in you.” And they stopped walking, and then it all blackened, and then the man was gone into that Egg…

reincar
The cycle of life and death is just an illusion of the intellect, of the ego and its aggregates; for there is only transmutation of forms and energy fields, it is all change–i.e., a subtle manifestation of ethereal bodies and essences in the individual while the dissolution of egos and of personalities passes through their final suffering, their final death, to begin again a new, to have a new chance for development.
