Loss of Inward Magic.

What is it that makes someone jealous, or what is the state of mind which produces this sickness…??  How can people think that jealousy and love have any relation to each other…??  What is true love, which most people do not really know, if not magical and absolutely free…??
It all comes back to love, doesn’t it…??  If you want to understand why people does anything in life, if you want to understand yourself, seek to deeply understand the root of love; not romantic or any other concept society gives us of love, but seek to understand the beautiful and perfect essence of love connecting everything and everybody.  This careful study shall take you to the understanding of that false “love” people feels, namely ‘attachment.’  And this knowledge shall take you immediately to the understanding of fear itself.
understanding-love

Being jealous, for example, is a very dark and negative mindset, which it is away from pure love; thus, it concentrates on attachment, fear which agitates the mind and fogs higher conscience.  The same goes for all envy and covetousness, which live in the desperate and truly unloving mind; for this mind is attached to the outward situations, thus away from the inward state where all love dwells…  You do understand that true love really lives inwardly and not on the outside, right…??

When your attention falls on the world and you start basing your individual happiness on the person, on the family, on the material things, on the situations, then your mind becomes enslaved, your animal nature holds you captive, and your life falls under the rule of fear and your massive ego.  And that is exactly why your attention is the most important thing to be self-aware, thus your attention drives the success or failure of your life, it drives the true joy or misery you feel.

So, remain with your attention into yourself, inwardly, because you cannot become jealous or envious of anything or anyone if your attention remains in self-love–which is true love.

“Jealousy is a disease, love is a healthy condition.  The immature mind often mistakes one for the other, or assumes that the greater the love, the greater the jealousy – in fact, they are almost incompatible; one emotion hardly leaves room for the other”  ~ Robert A. Heinlein; American novelist, short story writer, essayist, screenwriter, aeronautical engineer, and lieutenant junior grade USN.

Mature love.

 

Does a mature and wise person “fall in love” or becomes love…??  Isn’t there a difference…??  Doesn’t “fall in love” imply a process of blind possession or slavery where you lose all conscience for the other person…??–But is this true love though…??


As I see it, a truly mature person, a wiser individual no matter the age, sees through all this pitiful and childish nonsense, and so he does not fall in love because he deeply understands that true love is an essence of beautiful and rich freedom which expands and does not own or become slave to another.  Why would you fall in love and lose reality of what love truly is…??

000ce3752fe25a135ecc3c6e6fe94267

No, the wiser man knows what the heart of this connection we call love is, so he raises himself in love, he is love and thus fills himself and surrounds himself with this divine substance which wraps around whoever and whatever is in contact with him.

But the ignorant world has created this concept of falling in love, “falling;” as if love is a dangerous thing which bashes you on the head and you lose all conscience and freedom, you fall and you become a slave to another.  And so, now you are lost because your very identity is found in this other person who “made you” fall, you are obsessed with this person, you belong to this person and this person must belong to you, so there is jealousy, fear of losing this person, and the popular and egoistical belief/a threat of a “broken heart.”

Broken heart…??  What sort of ignorant idiocy is this?! … But the heart is never broken, because love is not a thing; and because true love in reality does not emanate from your heart muscle.  You may feel your heart beat fast, but that is just your ego/your desire making your heart go like that.  Love is literally the energy inside each cell of your body; thus, when you are truly in love, beyond desire and attachment, you feel it in your whole body like beautiful and harmonious symphony which gives you warmth, clarity of mind, courage, and freedom–and not any fear or confusion whatsoever…  Have you ever experienced this…??

And that is why two mature and wise persons in love help each other stay free, they become one because, even though there are two human beings now, love is an essence which penetrates all flesh and bone and so link each other by the energy inside each cell of their individual bodies.  Such divine energy which is attracted to each other like a moth to a flame.  There are no boundaries of matter, space or time in this deep and wonderful experience.

Do not seek to see…

True success is the combination of love and happiness, because whatever you seek to attain must be sought with love in your heart and in your mind, such love in your heart and mind means happiness; for to be filled with love is to see beauty and delight in life, in the good and the bad times, and to see beauty and delight is to be truly happy.
And specially when it comes to financial or other material success, people deceive themselves in seeking first outwardly, then inwardly (if that ever happens, of course); therefore, they ignorantly allow their attention to fall upon their situations and the money they make with each paycheck…  But have you analyzed, really observed, how any success is truly born…??

22aa97806f15c5c0bc69d9b8fc17f9d4
I am not talking about people being born rich and successful, because that is another matter which does not concern me or interest me at all.  But I am talking about the more “normal” people like you and I, who are not born in golden crib but born in struggle and financial fluctuation; and our success then, it is not something we should seek to see, because most of the time success is not seen.  Like I said before, success is the combination of love and happiness, which must be born in you with honesty and heart.  And can you actually see love and happiness…??

No. You must cultivate that first within you like a seed, then, if you are patient and focused on your duty, you will create outwardly, you will harvest from that seed.  Your inner world creates your outer world.  So, do not be discouraged if you do not see success around you, for you must be patient.  Don’t ask how patient!  But be patient and do not quit… ever!

It all comes to you at the right time.

“And success … seems to be connected with action.  Successful men keep moving.  They make mistakes, but they don’t quit.”  ~ Conrad Hilton; American hotel tycoon and the founder of the Hilton Hotels chain.

The mystical essence of love…

One day a Russian traveler came to see an Indian mystic, and he said “I have come from very far to talk to you; may I enter and see you now.”

The mystic replied wisely, “Be at home, my friend; leave your shoes and come see me.”

The traveler entered, shut the door behind him quickly and unkindly, threw out his shoes with excitement, and neared the wise man.  Seeing this, the mystic said, “Stop, my friend.  You have to show love before you talk to me.  Go back and apologize to the door and the shoes for the treatment.”
“Apologize to the door and the shoes…??  Are they alive like you and me..??” said the traveler.  …But the wise man said nothing…  The man felt silly but he had come a long way to talk to the mystic, so he went back.  To the shoes he said, “I sincerely apologize for having thrown you so carelessly.”  And to the door he said, “I am sorry for my rude and violent behavior.”

… Having heard this, the wise man smiled with kindness, and said, “Now I feel you are full with pure love, and because of it this place is full of pure love.  We can talk lovingly now, my friend.”

You can pick up a brick and treat it full of kindness and love as if you were picking up a friend.  You can hold a loved one and do it with disgust and feelings of contempt.  Everything is alive, moving or not to your eyes; everything must be appreciated for its existence, because love is the essence of the rock and of the loved one.  A loving person is not the person who loves animals and humans, and then eats with greediness, behaves with things around him violently, and acts in his alone time with anger.  A loving person appreciates all the things, sentient beings and not; for this person loves because this person has become the power of love itself.  This person truly knows and understands, as a personal experience, the mystical essence of love, of himself…  Can you be this person in your life…??
—–

“On the path of the Master Love, we are neither Masters nor the owners of our lives.  We are only a brush in the divine hand of the Master Painter.”  ~ Rumi.

A glimpse into eternity…

Do you realize that eternity is here, now, with you, even though it might be extremely difficult to experience for you….??  Do you know what is it that shades or blocks eternity from human experience…??
Eternity is something absolutely free, a condition of existence without the tyranny of space and time; furthermore, eternity is egolessness and Oneness, a state where no duality exists and all boundaries are vanished.  Humanity is bound and bullied by ego, by its nature of desire and prejudice; and so, ego is thought and thought gives birth to time and space, and time and space turns matter into decaying dust under the rule of that despot known as fear.  But can you think of a moment where you have experienced eternity, egolessness and timelessness, even if you didn’t realize it at the time…??

The swift moment when you gaze into a loved one’s eyes without a thought of desire or any attachment in your mind.  The very peak of lovemaking, called orgasm, when desire has left and there is only Oneness and a pure harmony throughout your existence.  A deep meditative state, called by some superconsciousness, where thought is not ruling the mind and so this one is empty because no attention seeks ego…  These are indeed some of the moments of the higher states of consciousness which allow us to experience eternity, because you are living purely in the moment here and you are not choosing a direction or a desire; but in these moments you are without ego and absolutely free from time and space.


index
As you go about your life and experience your mind faltering and your body decaying, know and understand that eternity is what you truly are under the layers of your ego and the time ruling your corroding body.  When you are threatened by fear and confusion in any way overwhelming your mind, seek magical comfort in that you have already experienced eternity and it is the reality of all existence; and that when you leave your physical body, you shed these layers of ego and time, and so what is left is eternity itself.

“God exists in eternity.  The only point where eternity meets time is in the present.  The present is the only time there is. ~ Marianne Williamson; American spiritual teacher, author, and lecturer.

A series of fun events.

Can’t you see that life is something to enjoy, fun, beautiful, whatever the situations are…??  Do you understand that you are experiencing this life to enjoy it…??
People tend to take things too seriously, don’t they…??  Of course, there is illness, economic problems, loss of loved ones, ignorant people around us, and more; however, if you can step away from those negative thoughts once in a while you might just like life, and you even may see the joke life is.  Your mind and its content is the screen through which you see life and the situations in your midst, and that is why you must clear your mind, wise up, elevate your consciousness, and see the beauty and love which is on the other side of your frustrations.

37c86f98c0e19a1449637a2b83edb8c9--law-of-attraction-money-mind-power
God, Creation, Life, Divine Essence, yes indeed, they are always giving you reasons to wake up and see the jokes behind every situation, behind every terrible illness, behind each burden you carry from the past.  Because all life is, all your moments, is a divine and fun series of events, like beautiful still photographs which you may see in your ignorance covered in filthy mud or in your very wisdom shining with warming light.

You build a world of love and happiness, of laughter and joy, when you bring those same things from yourself; and it is your responsibility to be able to bring this.  Not their responsibility.  But your responsibility…  Osho so eloquently said, “Learn to laugh.  Seriousness is a sin, and it is a disease.  Laughter has tremendous beauty, a lightness.  It will bring lightness to you and it will give you wings to fly.”…    So, can you see why laughter has tremendous beauty in it…??

“Lighten up, just enjoy life, smile more, laugh more, and don’t get so worked up about things.”  ~ Kenneth Branagh; Northern Irish actor, director, producer, and screenwriter.

Give them freedom…

Do you understand relationships…??  What is the point of honest communication…??  Do you bring freedom to your relationships…??

In human relationships the key element is honest communication, as we all know, as we all try to become better human beings in life; however, quite often one gets taken by this obsession for winning, for coming out ahead, for proving ourselves to the other, thus the ego takes over and a communication based on love and understanding vanishes.  This calls for self-reflection and less pride; so, this calls for more rich silence, less talking.

29543143_440428179723883_2314169880494595611_n
The ego likes to talk and show off, defend itself and seek security; but the true heart of love is silent, wise, listens because it knows in silence there is true freedom.  And what is love…??  Is it a word…??  Is it talking and arguing…??  No.  True love is an essence which lives in the rich silence; in the rich silence of listening, in the rich silence of holding hands and walking together, in the rich silence of staring deeply into each other’s eyes… without a sign of ego… without trying to fix anything… without empty words all the time…


And that is exactly what one must bring into a relationship, into an honest communication with another, such freedom to liberate the mind of another and make them feel valued, appreciated to allow themselves to be heard by us, to express themselves freely and without any contention or threat.

This is love and understanding, to show true care in what someone else thinks and feels; because sometimes talking is of the ego and vanity itself, because sometimes to be quiet and listen is to guide our relationships into new, vaster horizons.

Have you considered real love…??

“If you want the moon, do not hide at night.  If you want a rose, do not run from the thorns.  If you want love, do not hide from yourself. ”  ~ Rumi.

 

To love oneself, the elevation of oneself, the true knowledge of oneself, must be the purpose of our individual existence; because if one does not truly and absolutely love oneself, then one cannot truly love another being.  And it is not enough to say in your mind “I love myself,” but it is in the small things of our daily living where we must show ourselves love–i.e., in the way we eat, in the types of food we ingest, in the thoughts we entertain in our minds, in cleaning our place, in cooking for ourselves, in exercising, in the things we read, etc. etc.

So everything starts in this love for ourselves.  If you cannot accept and love yourself, everything and anything you do in life is superficial.  Without self-love, you are forced to fall in the trap of seeking love and happiness outside of yourself–i.e., in relationships, in situations, in jobs, in travels, in cultures, in religions, etc..  This seeking is the form of false “love” the ego has created in you, this fake “love” is attachment.

“Changed“

As the darkness settled I felt empty,
A void and an abyss deep within me.
The people who were lost were plenty,
A vast wilderness where I could not be.

The hidden loathing was for the many lies,
Which I told to myself every waking day.
And I would not listen to the loud cries,
Ill by the pleasures of my body’s decay.

But as I saw I became one with the light,
For before true love I knew estranged;
The darkness in me had been my sight,
The emptiness within had now Changed.

Will you learn real love in you…??

An apology based on True Love.

Thoughts, words, intentions, sincere or not, might be important to you, as a reason for hope, as senders of trust, as a message for or from someone you love felt in the moment; however, as I have said it before, all these are conditioned to the past because as soon as you pronounce them or feel them they are gone, up and down just like a roller coaster, and also they are attached to time, to your current moods, feelings.   They are not actual experiences, they can mean something today and tomorrow something different, and the day after that they can be gone, forgotten.

empty-words
All that is of time and space–i.e., thoughts, words, intentions, ideas, etc.–is not real, such not real in the sense that these are tied to moods of change, to views and opinions. The only thing that is real, eternal in the moment when is actually done, is action, behavior. Just like love, changed behavior, action, creates something real, brings evolution, brings the truth out. Always look for and create yourself change in order to love yourself and another; because the rest is truly meaningless.


The experience, the action based on love, as an apology, is the real thing; therefore; change is now, change is not of time, change is not tied to a word, a desire, a mere intention, change is eternal.

There is always change, moving forward onto better things, as life itself is change, as you bring love into the world by change, as you make others feel loved by your change; for this change says “I love you so much, I care so much, that I change and better myself for all of us; for I truly love myself.”

Stages-of-behavior-change

Change based on love then is what really builds and communicates a deeper connection–in friendship, in family, in marriages, in all relationships.  But to change a behavior you must focus with steely determination and rest upon great motivation, become aware of your situation, feel in your heart the need and the want to change for your good and for the good of others.  And the secret of change is not to do it solely for others, because if you do then at some point in time you will change back, you will allow your ego to pull you back into what you were before; because this change is superficial and based on fear and not love–fear because you are changing to please others, maybe because you want their love, their attention, popularity, etc.  But true change is based on love, self-love; you do it for yourself, because you want to change, because you love yourself and you want to become better for yourself; furthermore, when you do this for yourself is true love because you do not get tired of working to better yourself, it makes you happy, and so it makes others happy.


That is why, in all honesty, if you want to trust, know, love and relate yourself with people, perhaps begin or strengthen a relationship also, always look at their actions, their behavior, as you change your behaviors as well; thus, never fully rely and love a word, a message, however loving and sincere.  Trust the truth, which is changed behavior; because changed behavior is an actual display of love.  And isn’t true love an action and not merely a word…??

“Apologies are great, but they don’t really change anything. You know what does?: Action.” ~ Stella Young; Australian comedian, journalist and disability rights activist.

Are you intelligent in your own life…??

Do you know why most people tend to make bad choices over and over again throughout their lives…??  People all over the world, even with higher education and vast experience, live in ignorance and create wars and all sorts of ignorant evil or mischief, so one wonders… aren’t these people with all their education and vast life experience supposed to be intelligent and create beauty instead of mayhem…?? …

So, what is really intelligence…??

28783396_432408427192525_5081735756221775872_n
All most of these people do is search for more success in the world, more recognition, more knowledge from books, more experiences, but all this goes to their intellect, which is the ego; so, all this is the accumulation of knowledge, superficial data which is gained by effort and struggle, as the mind is always trying to fix, always trying to achieve more and increase in superficial, mechanical awareness–an ambition which is capable of consuming the individual in pride of becoming better, more knowledgeable, more successful, more rich, more spiritual, etc..

All this never-ending struggle for becoming is a denial of what one really is, because one is never satisfied with that which one is, because one finds identity and worth, the ego finds identity and worth, in accomplishing and struggling to be.  This false identity and worth is tied then to our ego, to our daily thoughts of joy and suffering, to all feelings which like a roller coaster take us up and down in mood swings and through the neurosis of one’s state of mind.  This distances us from our real value and we start paying attention to people’s opinions of ourselves and to the very alluring but very ignorant society–i.e., what you should be, how is your life to be improved, what to eat, what to wear, what career to follow, etc.  Thus life becomes based on fear of not being better than somebody else and all fear of not becoming what they say we should become.  No real love grows within us…

As-I-began-to-Love-Myself-790x790
But is there a superior way to internalize and accept that which one is without the struggle and obsession to become better…??

Meditation, observing, peering into oneself, is realizing that there is no struggle in being, that we do not need to seek for experiences and obsess over becoming this or that in order to accept life and flow with it.  Observing the tides or ocean waves going in and out is relaxing and powerful, and so there is much learning of wisdom in it; and so, one does not have to think and struggle to understand the movement of the waves, but in simply observing our consciousness grows because now there is no distance between you and the moving water, there is no word, there is no judgement, there is simply a superior understanding which is real intelligence where the ego is dissolved.
so-you-think-you-can-trance-the-benefits-of-meditation-2-638

The same observing is required in all aspects of life to understand, to absorb wisdom and grow, to observe is to be intelligent without the struggle and desire to be intelligent.  Without comparing yourself to the world, without following, without all this behavior out of fear of not becoming this, you become really intelligent, you are what you are now; ergo, you follow your untainted heart without the ego demanding of you, you just flow and do not struggle to please others and fill the expectation others have of you.


“Joy in looking and comprehending is nature’s most beautiful gift.” ~ Albert Einstein.
