The Key to Every Door.

“The most beautiful thing you can wear is confidence.”  ~ Blake Lively; American actress.

Life throws obstacles and challenges at us to help us grow, because that is the purpose of being here: To elevate our minds and become better human beings through rich experiences (good and not so good experiences, they are all meant to teach us something).  But the reality of our lives is that most people, because of their childhoods or really traumatizing experiences they go through, are not feeling really confident to better themselves and face those challenges head-on.

And here is the most important tip I can give you to be confident, which I use myself every day and really works like real magic:  Watch your Self-Talk.

“Be confident”

Confidence is not about your talents, or your intelligence, or your job, or even your education.  From personal experience, I know confidence is energy from Infinite Intelligence, some may call it divine.  See, confidence is in what you tell yourself everyday, the self-talks you have in your own head.  If you are always complaining about your life, about yourself, allowing your attention to go towards your flaws and what you do wrong, then, chances are you won’t develop confidence.  Because your self becomes your enemy, self-confidence won’t be permitted to reach you.
To develop confidence, you must embrace yourself, love every part of you inner self; therefore, accept your flaws, work on them, but DO NOT let your attention remain upon your weaknesses or flaws, for this will distance your mind from your inner self, and soon this becomes the opposite of self-love.


Also, this may sound silly, because most of the time we see ourselves as a tiny grain of sand in the whole vastness of Creation; however, I always tell myself that the energy inside each atom that makes me physically is the same exact energy which makes black holes, planets, and all phenomena. I suggest you remind yourself just that, because the power and confidence lies in the energy you have within you.


You cannot see this energy but it is there, if you persevere on your goals, if you respect yourself and watch what you tell yourself in any situation, then, confidence will become part of your everyday life. You will walk tall and mighty in this world, because now you developed confidence in your self, self-confidence.

Evolution.

“In order for the light to shine so brightly, the darkness must be present.”  ~ Francis Bacon; English philosopher, lawyer, statesman, scientist, jurist, orator, and author.


 

All you see and all you know is here because of darkness, thus light was given its qualities–i.e., warmth, clarity, the enlightening of all reason in the mind, the pleasures of this physical life, human love, etc. etc.–because it sprung from darkness.  This is the duality we have to deal with and enjoy every day of our waking hours, and if it weren’t for this duality the ego-mind wouldn’t have been born, thus we couldn’t exist in physical form, we couldn’t have anything that we know now, think, and feel.

Most people in the world do not realize that which enlightens the mind and frees the human spirit to soar into the skies to be whoever they want to be–i.e., a successful businessperson, a scientist, a service provider of some sort, a wise spiritual teacher, an artist, etc..  Most of humanity escape from their darkness, from their past memories of pain and regret, from looking into themselves and getting in touch with their own subconscious, from the misery and poverty they see around them, from all the ignorant “evil” in the world; but this is life and we have to learn to accept it the way it is, instead of running away from it and put resistance to it.

Light and all goodness in life elevate the human condition, yes; however, is the painful challenges and all darkness in our lives the one essence from which light emerges.  A woman needs a man to birth life, goodness in the heart of man needs darkness in the heart of man, human evolution (governments, societies, commerce, genius of innovation, and so on and so forth) needs opposition to develop itself and raise above its own mediocrity.  It is all meant with divine purpose to always move forward and not backwards, because it is all Oneness (one and the same, just different ends of the same pole, different experiences, different events, different views of the mind).

When you see misery, sadness, chaos, failure, destruction in your own life, it means The Universal Law or God is preparing the terrain for you to become better and excel at whatever you put your mind and heart, but you need to be patient and faithful in the process of this evolution, the new creations and all success in your life will come.  There are no coincidences, all is a divine plan. It is just that our limited minds do not quite understand evolution as it is.
Remember to embrace the darkness in you and in the world you see, for this is the very heart of the divine plan, of Creation.  Do not stress yourself and allow your mind to be seized by fear because of your life in chaos or because you see misery around the world.

Remind yourself that darkness is a necessity for all evolution.

The Master Within.

“Happiness is a choice.  You can choose to be happy.  There’s going to be stress in life, but it’s your choice whether you let it affect you or not.”  ~ Valerie Bertinelli; American actress.

 

As Buddha puts it, “What you think, you become. 

Life cannot be neglected, whatever happens around you is something which at some level has a reason and a hidden lesson–from the smallest cut while shaving to the loss of a dear person.  Everything is meant to awake you, to help you grow and understand something.  To the wise men among us, details tell us the next step to take and what is happening; however, as human beings we have been also endowed with the power to choose which direction to go next, which thought to entertain, which feeling to create and follow–i.e.,anger, joy, sadness, passion, etc. etc.. 

Even though life may throw at us obstacles and challenges, and ignorant people that may upset us or try to hurt us, What we Think, We Become; so, if we think, whatever we think, we should take responsibility for what we have become and chosen to think and feel in any given situation, no matter what happens around us.

responsible-for-my-own-happiness

e

In today’s world, people search for rich interaction with others and expect to find good moments and happiness there, but happiness, true happiness, is not found in anybody you interact with or in anything you do. Happiness is a natural state of consciousness, there is no reason for it, it just is, like the essence of love–i.e., it flows eternally, it is peace and has no special qualities, it is refreshing and wise in all matters of understanding.
Happiness or bliss is something you embrace within yourself and take with you wherever you go; therefore, if you have a good moment with friends or if you do not, if you have a good moment at work or if you do not, does not matter who did what to get you upset, is always about you. You choose to embrace happiness or not, you choose to let people and events affect you or not.


Your world is within, not without; so you must take responsibility for how you feel and not blame police, friends, family, a government, and so on and so forth.
Make sure you understand that the world and the interaction you have with people is a reflection of your mental state. If you find something annoying or depressing, it is your own fault and not the outside world, you chose to feel like that.

It is difficult to control your thoughts of depression and anger towards the stupid society we live in, I know this; but, however, it is a must to attend to yourself and comprehend that you are always in control of your mood, either of your misery or happiness.

And to embrace happiness, specially when your life does not go the way you want it to go, do not deviate your thoughts, do not allow your attention to go towards what is going wrong in your life and stay in misery there, playing the victim game; but to embrace and choose happiness above all else focus on your inner self, take care of it, stop negative self-talk and all negative thought from poisoning you, become a leader and a master of yourself and of how you feel. 

Try this and do not give up!

The one which never comes..

“Learn to enjoy every minute of your life.  Be happy now.  Don’t wait for something outside of yourself to make you happy in the future.  Think how really precious is the time you have to spend, whether it’s at work or with your family.  Every minute should be enjoyed and savored.”  ~ Earl Nightingale; American radio personality, motivational and personal development writer, speaker, and author.


Are we our knowledge…??  Are we happier by what we have read or thought…??  Are we just intellect…??  Are we just working and filling our minds and expectations with the future…??
These questions should be answered right away in your mind, because if you do sit and think about everything that happens, then it means you are not reaching your full potential and you are wasting away.  Life is here, not two days from now, two months from now, or twenty years from now; but here in this moment, for you to experience with all your being, with all its up and downs it is all a lesson to be learned by the wise man or woman.

Quite often we make the mistake of working really hard and putting all our faith and expectations, praying and getting anxious about the future–i.e., a future promotion or major sale at work, a future test coming up in school, a thought of reaching the next birthday and getting older, how to pay the coming rent, etc. etc.  And this is not really living, is it…??  Always worried about something, and letting our environment affect our moods and whole personas with ourselves and with others.

I mean to say that these thoughts are important, of course they are; they are preparing us for what is coming that is relevant to our lives, and as human beings this is necessary.  But we must understand that these thoughts can, and often do, become a subconscious malady or sickness, an obsession that soon turns into our persona, because these thoughts pop up and we allow them to flow and take over our lives, like poison spreads in the blood.

Living and enjoying everyday is elevating our minds and hearts, not by amassing intellect and thinking every little second about a future, but by being ourselves in the moment and experiencing life at its fullest.
So, we create the future our hearts desire, not by stressing over it (an illusion living only in our minds), but by behaving and acting appropriately towards a goal with faith and patience, energy and a positive attitude.

 

Don't stress about the future

Stitches.

“Our human compassion binds us the one to the other – not in pity or patronizingly, but as human beings who have learnt how to turn our common suffering into hope for the future.”  ~ Nelson Mandela.

Life itself is truly a miracle when seen beyond anger and stress, it is comforting to understand it and live freely; and, to live freely one must embrace and adopt a way of thinking and behaving with gratitude towards it, because it is the very wisdom of our scars that which makes us who we are.  But not just the wisdom of our scars, it is whether you carry your scars with pride and self-love or not; because this very process of accepting and loving your own scars or experiences (bad and good experiences), of course, shall be the strength you need to motivate yourself into new ventures in your own life.

Battles are fought by great men and women of hearts most noble and pure, but it is the true warrior the one who never gives up, the one who craves growth through scars in battle.  Stitches would be the acceptance of those mighty scars.  Stitches would be the natural course of our healing through the power of our perceptions–therefore, if you understand the messages in your scars, the healing process will make you stronger.  When a bone, let us say the femur or upper leg bone, is broken or somehow damaged, the pain is terrible; however, as the bone heals itself, science tells us, the tissues of this same bone become stronger and more resistant to a new injury.

It is then the strength of divine acceptance, the power within us all, the one which makes us stronger and more confident to live our lives freely and not feel chained to past scars that do not heal because of our hate and negative thinking about these same scars.  If you can remember this, your stresses and fears in life will become weak and surrender to your wisdom.

Poetry and prose from the heart. Self-help life truths. The free mind of a human god!

You must remember…

“You cannot believe in God until you believe in yourself.”  ~ Swami Vivekananda; Hindu monk, philosopher of Vedanta and Yoga, Spiritual teacher and author.


The Forgotten Gods

Once, the conscious realm was all there was,

Eternal, Omniscient, Omnipotent, vast;

Gods were one, power was Infinite,

What we call love remained its joyful visit.

The choice of the conscious was clear,

To design life to experience nature near.

Humanity, time, emotion, thought, were born;

All experiences of the New Being to warn.

The New Being was many, they grew and grew

Along physical quality, color, bliss, misery, hue.

The dark cloud of The Forgotten Gods was here,

The mind control behind all religion was fear;

Fear developed into the subconscious mud,

Ready to trigger the mind and poison the blood.

Humanity was lost in the illusion of the physical senses;

Man and women were ignorant of their offenses.

 

Wrong perception:  All which happens in your life, does not happen to you or against you, it does not happen because you deserve it or not.  It happens because somehow your thoughts, words, and intentions have masked themselves subconsciously and they have attracted energy, either positive or negative, which has built the progress of your events the way you chose to experience them.

Solution:  Grab hold of your life, be a leader of your own mind.  Work on not complaining, having good, positive thoughts and intentions.  Slowly, your subconscious will transform itself completely and you will embrace the confidence and strength of you as the god you carry deep inside.

 

You are a god

Tips on Problem Solving

“There was never a night or a problem that could defeat sunrise or hope.”  ~ Sir Bernard Williams; English Moral philosopher.

Life is challenges, that is the value of life, the rich essence of human existence.  Imagine if you didn’t have problems or challenges, you would never grow and learn, you would never feel blissful and accomplished whenever you have achieved something you have worked for.  Human beings only know success because they know frustration and failure.  Human beings only know happiness because they know unhappiness.  Human beings only know how love feels because they know how fear, hate, and rejection feels.

A few tips on Problem Solving for your everyday life:

  1. Accept the problem:  Quite often we try to push on, live our lives ignoring a problem or just hoping it goes away on its own; however, this might be counterproductive for growth and for a solution, because it could backfire on us.  Acceptance of a problem means that you are not resisting and not feeding that problem by an immature and damaging process.  Accepting it means that you allow peace and clarity to enter your mind and so think better, to become one with the problem and not running away from it like it is your enemy.  Problems are not enemies, they are there for a reason; to help us grow and master ourselves, master our skills of creativity, of imagination.  So become one with the energies of your problems; because those energies can be transformed in solutions if you work with that problem.
  2. Keep calm and analyze:  Ask yourself:  What’s the worst that could happen…??  Is this really the end of my life…??  Should I let this problem rob me of happiness and clarity…??  Should I allow fear to take over my mind and my body…??  Thoughts of obsession and darkness seem to overwhelm the mind when we have a problem, and by taking a step back, sitting calmly, breathing deeply and meditating or contemplating on the problem, we can then become rulers over the situation and get rid of the brunt or heart of the stress we feel.  And remember that stress is conducive to illness and all sorts of problems, specially it blocks your creative thinking.
  3. Remember who you are and look at failure as nothing to you:  This is a big one, and one that most of us forget.  What human beings really are, beyond the mere thoughts we have and the decaying flesh we see in the mirror, is energy, energy inside each atom that makes us; and this energy is what we call Imagination or Creativity, and this is why we are given by life problems and challenges in the first place, because we are equipped by nature to solve them, whether you are conscious of it or not…  Also whenever problems overwhelm you, look and learn from highly successful people and their views on failure–i.e., failure is just a state of the mind for them, and something not to be feared but to be welcomed and learn from.
  4. Don’t be proud, ask for help:  Quite often, there is that foolish pride the ego creates, that embarrassment perhaps, that fear; but, the opposite of fear is love, so you have to accept to expand that love to get rid of that fear, and you do it by connecting with others, by sharing the weights you carry on your shoulders with others.  As human beings, we are to support each other because we are a collective species, we are one in the sense that we must help each other with the challenges we present.  Pride drives the ego and so the problems you may have exacerbate or become heavier on you; therefore, help others with their problems, and help yourself by connecting with others and sharing the burden you carry.  Asking for help means trust, and trust is the expansion of love; the expansion of love is not a weakness but a strength, an imaginable power.
  5. Use The Universal Law:  This law says that a task will expand in time and seeming complexity depending on the time you set aside for it.  For instance, if you say to yourself that you will come up with a solution within a week, then the problem will seem to grow more difficult and you will spend more and more time trying to come up with a solution.  So focus your time on finding solutions, be clear of mind first and then give yourself an hour or so (instead than a whole week) to find that solution.  In this manner, you will rule your own mind and not allow panic or stress to set in and take over, you will give your mind a definite time frame and structure to come up with a solution in a very ordered way; and this will drive the best methods to use the energies of creativity that lie within you.
  6. Watch your words about the problem:  Words, like thoughts, are energy, powerful energy which attracts either positive or negative outcomes.  Most people fail on finding solutions to big problems because they ignore this deep understanding; this can either bring more problems and stress or it can bring solutions and mental peace.  Your choice…  Whenever you feel frustrated and say something negative like “I cannot do this!” or, “There’s no solution here!” you allow more stressful thoughts and situations to appear in your midst, to overwhelm you further.  Whenever you do this, you are summoning negative energy by picturing a “giving up” image in your mind.  This is the loser’s mentality, but most people do not realize it.  The winner’s mentality realizes that there is no failure or losing in life, just challenges to learn from and always grow.  So be wise, adopt a winner’s mentality!

There is always a solution to your problems, but the challenge is to keep your mind clear and peaceful to find it.

The power of a thousand suns!

“The word enlightenment conjures up the idea of some superhuman accomplishment, and the ego likes to keep it that way, but it is simply your natural state of felt oneness with Being.”  ~ Eckhart Tolle.

“When you accept what is, every moment is the best moment.  That is enlightenment.”  ~ Eckhart Tolle; Spiritual teacher and author.


Desire is the one which drives humankind, the one which points our routes in this physical life–i.e., you desire to eat, you desire to find companionship and and get into a relationship, you desire to better your education to get a better job, you desire to be the best you can be so to achieve greater things in life, and so on and so forth.  And, of course, there is the real us, the subconscious, which takes care of breathing, heartbeats, blood circulation, immune system, etc. etc.; and so our subconscious does not do things based on our conscious desire of daily living, its energies are the essence of our life and what keeps our motors running.

But desire, good or bad, or the process of desire, lives in the conscious mind, it is our ego; however, because it is our ego is tied to birth and death, it is mortal and flawed, it is a superficial entity we use every day to function as human beings.  But there are energies driving the forces of desire, and these come from the subconscious mind that I mentioned above.  These energies from the subconscious are “enlightening”, or what most of us call “Enlightenment”, energies, and these divine energies are shaped soon into our ego, by our conscious (because through the subconscious they penetrate and give life to the desire that drives us every single day, they feed the conscious mind to our advantage and human survival). 

True spiritual awakening, the intelligent power fueling all of our being, is then embracing fully these divine energies flowing through the subconscious; therefore, true spiritual awakening is embracing who you really are beyond the ego and the desires you have (which can be good or bad).  Knowledge and all information is good for the mind, but it will only enter your mind and boost your ego.  This knowledge could help you in your life’s path, perhaps help you remember who you are deep inside; however, it will not give you a deep and shocking realization of who you are in the Absolute Essence (which is, in fact, your Absolute Essence, your Vital Life Force, what is called an Awakening).

 

th

Awakening

When someone becomes truly awakened, your whole belief system shakes and your views on life are altered, you start shedding intellectual and emotional layers of your persona because you start seeing your ego for what it is, and once you truly see or realize your ego and its reactions then you become bigger and stronger and more able to tame it or control it.  

This spiritual process we call “Enlightenment” or “Awakening” comes when the universe or God (the vital life forces in you/the wisdom deep in you/the subconscious or Infinite Intelligence in you) “find you” ready; therefore, this process of awakening does not come with your mere desire (which, as I mentioned above, all desire lives in the ego).  And this process is also called Entering The Light…

“Entering The Light.”

Of many a dreamland and conscious travels,
Only the purest inner contemplation unravels
The dimensions and elevations of mental planes,
The absolute freedom and love the mind gains.

I was obscured by stress and a dark life,
I was put down and belittled by ill strife;
Living every day had become boring and dull,
And my ‘good friends’ were trying to make me fall,
My family was distant and my suffering was great,
Hate and loneliness I thought it was my fate.

One day I found the passage beyond pride
For rich silence and self-acceptance I tried.
It turned out that within me was all along,
The dreamland, the conscious travels, the song;
The absolute freedom and the love was in sight,
I became the Alchemist by Entering The Light.

~ Asa Rodriguez.

Self-help life truths.

The ugly and heavy rocks.

“A few vices are sufficient to darken many virtues.”  ~ Plutarch; ancient Greek biographer and essayist.

This morning while walking my dog I encountered a guy, like I had many times before, bumming cigarettes, poorly dressed and with a really anxious demeanor and countenance.  He came to me and asked me for a smoke; of course, I told him I don’t smoke, but it also made me think of the fear that wretched vice was holding in his weakened mind, he wasn’t able to control his urges thus becoming a puppet of the addiction of smoke.
I wanted to write this because vices and their fears are poisoning our minds, and they are keeping humans hostage, not able to express fully their excellence through talents and creative thinking; furthermore, vices themselves are ruling over the minds of people making them weak and subservient.  Most of us are not able to be absolutely free because of these vices which act subtly over the hearts and minds of men and women.  And then people complain about not having success in their own lives, and also become jealous of other people who do embrace their own excellence through controlling their urges.  Human vices–i.e. smoking, drinking, any drug addiction, food addiction, sex addiction, friending your fears, work addiction, etc. etc.–are the very heart of mediocrity and misery in people, perhaps subconsciously; because these things soil your higher talents and higher thought processes. 
aristotle-success-large
Habits are what shape us as human beings, what either elevates or diminishes our mind, our thought processes of creativity and understanding; therefore, if we do not watch what we do and just acquire foolish habits, we will not achieve excellence in our lives, and not even a life we can be proud of beyond our nonsensical egos.  Habits can destroy your happiness or help you embrace happiness, and it is always up to you, up to what you choose to start doing in your everyday living.  Habits become who we are and they mold our futures, but addictions are habits which are foolish and habits which you haven’t thought through; of course, your ego trap is that you think through all that you do, but addictions only happen when we are not leaders of our own minds, they happen when we are followers of other people and society–this EXTREMELY weakens you.
 th
And vices come in many forms and varieties, as you deep inside can understand, but the thing to have in mind all the time is that spiritual values, or the mighty power of the human spirit to achieve all we need and desire in our own lives, are the expression of our higher selves, the expression of who we are beyond fear and stress and all anxieties.  And addictions, OF ANY KIND, bury that power of expression and genius we all have deep under muddy layers of mediocrity and filth.
This seems dramatic, and even over-the-top, but deep inside you know it to be true; because there is a small light of wisdom within you that tells you what is right and what is wrong, but perhaps your ego and foolish desires cover that wisdom on a daily basis.

Beyond the ego of man.

 

Due to the power-mongering and mind-controlling agenda of the Church, many ancient manuscripts have been cast off and ignored (this happened when Emperor Constantine ruled the land and gave complete control and power to the Church, so they chose some holy books to build the religion upon and the other holy books were hidden away into darkness from the world), because these very manuscripts contain truth revealed which are not good for the prosperity of a deceitful church or religion.  The ego-driven institutions of the world born from the ego of man couldn’t survive if the whole truths from these manuscripts were revealed, for this case you only find the books in the Bible which say nothing to evoke a consciousnesses transfiguration in man, but instead you meet only emotionally compelling stories which boost the ego and start the imagination of the already mediocre mind, leading thus to no independence of thought and reach of the Higher Self in any man.
And while there may not be any direct references in the known Bible by Jesus (Yashua/Yeshua) regarding a vegetarian diet, text does exist with Jesus teachings that we should not only be eating a vegetarian diet, but that we also should be eating a living-food diet (we should not be cooking our food!).
Fruits and vegatbles
Now, it is indeed the understanding of the truth and the acceptance of profound wisdom that which elevates the mind of man from the pitiful and enslaving condition of mediocrity and puerile existence, which gives limitations to that same man, to the godlike condition of a higher consciousness which knows no bounds and creates prosperity and growth.  We should understand that when Jesus talks about a vegetarian diet he does so because in those ancient times man did not pump cows and all the animals with chemicals to extract their milk, and did not exert the massive cruelty man inflicts on animals to get their hide, milk, honey, and other animal-related products.

Now-a-days, a compassionate saint like Jesus would indubitably talk about Veganism, for the singular fact that being Vegan causes no suffering to animals, while just a vegetarian diet means not eating meat but still partaking of the related products–i.e., animal milks, animal cheeses, honey, using leather, etc.–causing yet animals to suffer greatly by the cruelty of the present industry.  It is much worse and a greater sin whatsoever to make animals suffer like that–i.e., being skinned alive to get their hide, fill them with poisoning chemicals to get their milk, shave them raw to get their fur, etc.–than to kill them and be done with it.  The world has gotten more and more cruel and ignorant towards all nature in these present times, no doubt; however, the simple and narrow minds and the lesser emotionally developed of the world cannot see this, for they have blindfolds of their choosing, which are their egos always talking over their hearts saying “Me Me Me! – Gimme more, gimme more, gimme more!”

Here are some of Jesus’s teachings, the ones that the Church hid from people:
(But you certainly do not need to be a follower of Jesus to understand the truth in these scriptures; so, cast aside your ego and your prejudices to read this and accept the truth in the words you read.)  I bring the absolute  truth.

The commandment.  “Thou shalt not kill”

Thou shalt not kill,’ for life is given to all by God, and that which God has given, let not man take away. For, I tell you truly, from one Mother proceeds all that which lives upon the earth. Therefore, he who kills, kills his brother. And from him will the Earthly Mother turn away, and will pluck from him her quickening breasts. And he will be shunned by her angels, and Satan will have his dwelling in his body. And the flesh of slain beasts in his body will become his own tomb. For I tell you truly, he who kills, kills himself, and whoso eats the flesh of slain beasts, eats of the body of death. For in his blood every drop of their blood turns to poison; in his breath their breath to stink;in his flesh their flesh to boils; in his bones their bones to chalk; in his bowels their bowels to decay; in his eyes their eyes to scales; in his ears their ears to waxy issue. And their death will become his death.

It follows…  “I have given you every herb bearing seed… to you it shall be for meat”

Kill not, neither eat the flesh of your innocent prey, lest you become the slaves of Satan (these are the thoughts, ideas, and behaviors of the ignorant which bring all suffering upon man).  For that is the path of suffering, and it leads unto death (spiritual, physical, and mental dullness and decay). But do the will of God, that his angels may serve you on the way of life. Obey, therefore, the words of God: ‘Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.  And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to everything that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is breath of life, I give every green herb for meat.
