Through Hell to reach Heaven.



Do you realize that resisting pain or some form of suffering makes it even worse….??  Running away, distracting itself, and ignoring any form of suffering is what your mind does usually, doesn’t it…??
 
The Universe or Life is ruled by lower and higher planes of thought, conscious states, realms of consciousness, where there is suffering (hell) or true bliss (heaven); but the wild nature of the human mind, the grandiose ego, is always rebelling against these laws and thus always falling into hellish visions tied to this time and space.
 
friedrichnietzsche1-2x
 
The human mind falls into suffering, into the chaos that it brings by choosing the lower planes of existence, so its experience is hell; however, how interesting is it that the mind chooses to dwell in this lower consciousness and, at the same time, it tries to run away from it–by acquiring more beliefs, by praising more gods and saints, by more relationships, by seeking more material wealth, etc.–thus bringing more suffering and blindness into its own hell.
  But how can the mind elevate itself to higher planes then…??  Consciousness is not of time and space, but the mundane human mind is; thus time and space keep the mind in lower conscious states, but the mind seeks love and happiness still, it is our nature to seek that experience, and the illusion tells the lower mind that it can be found in time and space.  It is a vicious cycle because this mind needs love and happiness, it desperately seeks it, but in running away from the suffering it remains in time and space; so, the only way to reach higher planes of thought is to embrace your suffering, your painful memories, your shame, your anger, etc..
 
When doing this, by embracing your pain, you come to the individual realization that you are elevating yourself over all the suffering, thus your consciousness actually elevates; because now you are living and accepting your present Now without past or future thoughts ruling you.  You are now accessing higher planes where time and space do not rule over your thinking and feeling; for you are using The Higher Universal Law against The Lower Universal Law… you are using true Alchemy… and you are reaching and dwelling in beautiful heaven…
 
  “Rather follow the example of the wise, which the same authority states, ‘Use Law against Law; the higher against the lower; and by the Art of Alchemy transmute that which is undesirable into that which is worthy, and thus triumph’.”  ~ Three Initiates, Kybalion, A Study of the Hermetic Philosophy of Ancient Egypt and Greece

Bring beauty and answers into your life...

Do you understand the massive power lying in your own subconscious…??  Do you know the importance of your brain frequencies when dealing with creative expression and profound insights of any kind…??  Most people claim to have problems to be highly creative, but the truth is they themselves are creative in existence.  So what are they doing wrong…??  Where’s the creativity…??
  
The communication with your divine subconscious is the storehouse for all innovation and great ideas, and one cannot tap within it if there are other people around you or any distracting noise that rattles your brain frequencies; and that is what it is all about, managing brain frequencies, because the layers of your brain frequencies manifest true states of consciousness.
subconscious-mind-power

The direct communion with your divine subconscious mind and its mighty influences as beautiful temple of pure creation and wisdom can only be achieved by inducing the brain condition to a long state or period of peace, and also a still yet dynamic concentration within the same induced brain frequency, where the magnificent structural brain is freed from all outside disturbances and distractions.  Can you see that peace and harmony means pure love to dwell within yourself in this…??

 
And what is the state of mind you regularly maintain…??  The raw energies in consciousness which are responsible for this inward attention are ever so subtle and profound that the state of mind belonging to the creative individual has to be and remain in complete order and control.  Inertia of mind and of the brain states then induces a complete effect upon the body’s central nervous system and creates an extremely resonant energetic coherence within each cellular make-up.


I know this from experience, and Tesla knew it as well when he found the Schumann Resonance Frequency, Earth’s cavity frequency, and the human heart cavity frequency to match the human ‘Alpha’ brain-waves frequency (6-8 hertz, which is exactly the human subconscious). 
 
I order to create beauty and be as creative in any art form or expression, you must know and practice tapping into the raw and rich energies of your own subconscious.

The conscious mind may be compared to a fountain playing in the sun and falling back into the great subterranean pool of subconscious from which it rises.”  ~ Sigmund Freud.

Death of deep thought...


All television is educational television.   The question is:  what is it teaching?”  ~Nicholas Johnson; American educator  and self-help author.

Since the advent of television, and tragically through the advancement of more and more visual garbage, most people have become zombies of the trade of existing to pollute their own minds and fracture their own brains, inasmuch as becoming willing participants of their neglected relationships and poisoned thinking processes. 
 
20376126_414902882276413_4173573513661797556_n
 
Most television shows, specially, but not limited to, the news and reality shows, as well as celebrity entertainment shows, deal with fear, as in gossip anxiety, jealousy, materialistic greed and the overall dumbing down of the human thought; therefore, via your watching these shows, your mind becomes affected, perhaps subconsciously, and poisoned because your brain plasticity (your structured learning) is absorbing and swimming in low vibratory images and words which trigger basic fears and anxious emotions within you–i.e., fears, jealousy, gossip anxiety, and poor development of intellectual thought.


Accordingly, this sick mental condition affects your behaviors and powers of intuition, such behaviors and powers of intuition which represent the key elements for all success in life, the path to all abundance and prosperity, your views in life, your awakening to the truth, and the freedom of the mind to embrace the happiness within you.


Television makes people dependent, it robs you of individuality and uniqueness without you knowing it; therefore, subconsciously, your mind alters and attaches to what you see, you learn and form your persona around what you experience, the world and reality are taught to you through this idiotic screen, your brain molds and beliefs and ideas are not yours anymore.  This continues at any age; however, the human developing brain is a sponge when we are children, so this is the time where we learn more about the world and the time where we create a strong base of reality.  What a young brain absorbs is what the individual grows up to be, either a follower who thinks and acts for himself and sees reality as it really is, or some drone who carries superficial thoughts borrowed from the mediocre masses with no inner vision of his own.

“The dumbing down of America, and of other media-heavy countries, is evident in the slow decay of substantive content, a kind of celebration of ignorance.” ~ Carl Sagan; astronomer, cosmologist, astrophysicist, astrobiologist, author, lecturer.

Strengthen your character

 
“Better than a thousand hollow words, is one word that brings peace.” ~ Buddha.
“Be Impeccable with your word. Speak with integrity. Say only what you mean. Avoid using the word to speak against yourself or to gossip about others. Use the power of your word in the direction of truth and love.” ~ Don Miguel Ruiz; Mexican author of Toltec spiritualist and neoshamanistic texts.


Quite often we tend to react emotionally to situations and people, destroying trust and distancing ourselves from clarity; and this happens when the mind is overwhelmed and angered, in conversations or even when we keep anger inside that we cannot contain.

 
So, that is when the mind explodes and careless words come flying out just like daggers thrust to an opponent in battle; however, as in battle, the greatest warriors are the ones who remain calm, the ones who control their reactions, and the ones who turn mental anger and fogginess into mental strength and poise.

25507656_401524340280934_730112181361257566_n


See, the fact that you must be firm and serious in your battle, in your work, in your conversation with another, does not mean you have to be careless and hurtful with your words.

  Now, you must understand that when you let your mind explode and you say whatever comes out of your mouth, you are not just hurting others but you are hurting yourself; for in this process you condition your mind, your character, subconsciously perhaps, to be subjected to this poison which runs now throughout your whole system.


You not only destroy your own integrity and peace of mind, but you destroy opportunities and distance yourself from people that now see you as this ego-centered bully; furthermore, your thoughts and words of anger or incomprehension release energy which is negative and attract all sorts of stressing situations into your life.

Your character develops strength based on the control on your reactions and the intentions you carry in thoughts and words.

Be patient, wait to respond or formulate your message, remain clear and do not allow your emotions to cloud your thinking.

Source of the universe.

“It is difficult to understand the universe if you only study one planet.”  ~ Miyamoto Musashi; expert Japanese swordsman, rōnin, and author.

“People often say that this or that person has not yet found himself. But the self is not something one finds, it is something one creates.”  ~ Thomas Szasz; Hungarian-American academic, psychiatrist, and psychoanalyst.


So, one discovers, knows, and embraces one’s own strength only if the mind is not agitated.  But what is this mean exactly…??  Do you know what drives the human being into great acts…??  Do you know why most people are decent people but they never create greatness in their lives…??  Do you know where the cosmic secret beyond time and space lies…??

th


The world moves forth and most people sees this without a deeper thought, but, no matter how nice and loving they can be, they are not awake enough to understand that the world only is what it is and moves forth the way it moves forth because of the inner state of each human being–i.e., not because of animals, no because of trees, but because of human beings.

And whoever is not awake enough to understand this, believes that whatever they think and do does not really affect the world around them, so they start believing that what they need to create a better world is outside of them.

So, their minds are neglected, the ego takes over, and the world suffers because of that mediocrity, most of the time from well-intentioned people.


But the human race has been given higher intelligence over other sentient beings for a reason, not just to increase an ego which seeks the truth on the outside; therefore, that reason is the management of our higher thinking tools to inquire within ourselves, meditate, discover the essence of Life itself and The Great Creation within–no other being on Earth has been given self-awareness like this.


Because all the world around you is a mere reflection or a perfect hologram of the real pattern which lies within you.
 





interpersonal-ppt-journey-into-self-awareness-6-638

Furthermore, it might be difficult to find time to think about who we are, our strengths and weaknesses, our drives and personalities, our habits and values.   And even when personal feedback is presented to us, we’re not always open to it, because honest feedback isn’t always flattering; consequently, many people has a pretty low level of self-awareness.  But self-awareness can improve your judgment and help us identify opportunities for professional development and personal growth.  And so, what is more important than self-love, than improving yourself…??

Self-awareness is the power of introspection and reflection the world needs right now and always will, it is what your life needs.  And because your own happiness and a great life is created from within you, then you must take time to inquire within yourself and find out your reaction motives and meditate on your reason and logic of beliefs and thoughts, find out every day why you act and see life the way you see it, project yourself outside of your own mind and feel what other people feels and thinks, study the human psychology and behavioral patterns of the world.  This will give you the powerful insight into your human spirit and into life’s greatest secrets.


Stop seeking where to lean, the truth, love, peace, happiness, support, beliefs, company, on the outside; for, to discover all this, you must go to the source of the Universe and of Life itself, and that is you.

Then, with this truth to all, you create your life and the world.\

Blasphemous.



“However many holy words you read, however many you speak, what good will they do you if you do not act on upon them?”  ~ Buddha.

“No one saves us but ourselves.  No one can and no one may.  We ourselves must walk the path.”  ~ Buddha.


Christians think they follow Christ, but following Christ means truly following his philosophy of Enlightenment, and not one of them do this; they just read stupid passages from the scripture and adore some nonsense statue or painting at blasphemous religions.

blasphemy1

When it comes to Jesus, Buddha, and others, people are so trapped and deceived by their own ego that they believe that their religions are right and truthful.  Ignorant people do not see that everything they know from clergy men and from the interpretation these men have given to the scriptures is totally crooked, fit to their blasphemous and stupid institutions which only seek mental control and the selfish growth of their establishments on earth.

And the pathetic part of it all, is that most of these people are reading this right now.
Wake up!

Committed to success.


“Happiness is not something ready made.  It comes from your own actions.” ~ Dalai Lama.

“To enjoy good health, to bring true happiness to one’s family, to bring peace to all, one must first discipline and control one’s own mind. If a man can control his mind, he can find the way to Enlightenment, and all wisdom and virtue will naturally come to him.”  ~ Buddha.


Success in life is not something far-fetched, as our minds would have us believe; but it is something we have to reach by mastering ourselves every single day, because success and the bliss along with it is right around the corner for everybody, but we have to become ready to materialize it from energy into something we humans can actually experience.  Take love, for example:  True love is a substance which is perfect and that elevates your mind and heart to unlimited heights of existence, and it is already who you truly are; however, you cannot experience love in your physical body unless you experience some human interactions first–like relationships, or living your life without fear, or giving your life to the service of others, etc. etc.

believeinyourdream

Happiness, bliss, is something we already are, something we are by divine nature; however, because we are human beings and bound to space and time, then, in order to experience our own divine nature, our own happiness, there are certain habits and styles of being we must welcome and adopt every single day.

This divine nature is energy, and so we must be vigilant of its vibrations; therefore, our surroundings and choices, our communications and interactions with the world, must be aligned, to the best of our knowledge, with our own divine energy in order to elevate ourselves and not pollute ourselves.

And this is extremely important to have in mind always.

“It’s really important that you feel good.  Because this feeling good is what goes out as a signal into the universe and starts to attract more of itself to you.  So the more you can feel good, the more you will attract the things that help you feel good and that will keep bringing you up higher and higher.”  ~ Joe Vitale; American singer, songwriter, composer and multi-instrumentalist.

Five things to practice every day_

The Cosmic Substance.


“If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration.”  ~ Nikola Tesla.


The Cosmic Substance

Through my body and mind,
Of all my thoughts the bind,
Through all I see and feel,
Of all healthy conscience real.
It was a precious dream I thought,
Quite the wonderful miracle sought,
Of a cosmic, vast presence,
Running within me a pleasance.
The Substance brought me light,
You and I were openly in sight;
Emanations so warm and soothing,
Green grass and flowers blooming.
Above us perfect sky deep blue,
on earth many miles a poetic view.
Our hands held in amorous motion,
Substance ran in us like love potion.
Fear consumed us for a quick moment,
Soon we felt the end of the torment;
There was never seen love in her eyes,
In me deep peace and emotional highs.
We were one and saw all as one,
Soon there existed no borders, none.
The Cosmic Substance was magical,
The change we experienced radical.
There is nothing veiled in society now,
Nothing in the world of form to bow;
For we felt bliss and saw free range,
For we saw true love without change.
~ Asa.

Mutual evolution...

“Knowledge will give you power, but character respect.”  ~ Bruce Lee.

“If we lose love and self respect for each other, this is how we finally die.”  ~ Maya Angelou.


Living in this realm of duality, where light and darkness must stand side by side and where love and fear hold hands together, man must find the balance and rise above his own Lower Self and powerful ego; however, always keep connected to this world and grow connections with other minds which still remain in the dominion of the Lower Self.  After all, that is what being a human is all about, expressing your spirit through connections, through the sharing process, through the expansion of self-love.

22154543_1118898484908136_7065394627471117254_n

And even though we are all different and at different levels of understanding and maturity, we can still see beyond all the different experiences and cultural backgrounds if we allow ourselves to be led by the pure heart and not by the judging thought which divides us.  In those moments of conflict or anger because of differences and opinions among people, always remind yourself that we all are doing the best we can from our level of understanding and experience.

Walk with each other, connect with one another, and always try to help in the freedom and elevation of the human spirit.  The wise process of connection is to always be patient and poised in front of all differences, and to not label one another in your mind because this designs fears and anger towards one another.

The man with higher understanding of Nature is believed insane by the Lower Minds.  The Lower Mind of common understanding is too “normal” to see his own ignorance, and only the Higher-Thinking man can help him reach higher levels of understanding.
But they both need time and tolerance to accept each other and respect their own times and individual steps to mental elevation.

Beyond concepts...

“Never above you.  Never below you.  Always beside you.” ~ Walter Winchell; American newspaper and radio commentator.


Man and woman have sprung out of the same essence, and out of this essence we have our human duality.  Woman and man, when their souls connect and they allow themselves to share ideas and behaviors, to grow and learn from each other, then become one and the same.  This deeper love is going back to Source, merging souls, twin flames, becoming that same essence from which they have sprung before matter was born out of Oneness.

This condition goes beyond human love; for human love, as noble as it can be, is just a thought and an action chained to fear of loss, jealousy, pride, and so on and so forth.  This love goes beyond passion and desire; for passion and desire, as great as they can be, are just born out of flawed human thought.

The similarities and joys of man and woman when they find each other by soul emanation and not merely by physical attractiveness, then, are certainly greater than anything ever felt–i.e., greater than sex, greater than food, greater than sunshine bathing you after freezing cold, etc.  It is very rare to experience this extreme joy and profound harmony, because we all see love as human love, exciting, pleasurable, but flawed and common as human love can be.

We must then always look for mental elevation, because in soulmates there has to be this condition of Oneness ever so eternal flowing through all of us.  This condition that unites us beyond our opinions and beliefs, beyond our differences and imperfections.

Soulmates find each other not by search as we know it to be, but by vibes, energy emanation through conscious awareness of ourselves and of what we really are.  Because if we know what we really are beyond what we see in the mirror, then we know true self-love.  And if we know true self-love, then there is no fear.  And when there is no fear corrupting the emanations of energy of the being, then two soulmates attract each other instantly and naturally.

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

The spirit of the scenario.



“Drama is life with the dull bits cut out.”  ~ Alfred Hitchcock.

‘Drama’ is indeed derived from the Greek word for ‘Action.’  Drama in your story must be like your life, without the boring parts–for example, you are waiting for the bus, which is boring and has no point of tension, so in your work that part must be taken away and not showed at all, unless something of drama extremely conducive to the story is added.  Then, of course, the essence of drama is crisis; however, there is two kinds of crisis, “the hero crisis,” and “the natural crisis.”  The hero crisis is, for example, in “Mission Impossible” or “Batman,” where the hero has great abilities, sometimes fantastical and superhuman, something that you do not experience every day in your own life. 
The natural crisis, for example, in “Office space” or “Manchester by the sea,” where the main character or characters have really normal lives like you and me, but something happens in their normal lives which turns into drama and tension, maybe a bit of chaos and lessons from the story’s character development the audience can learn from.
So, when you are involved in your writing or somehow creative endeavor, remember that drama must keep some kind of tension to grab the audience’s attention, and this at all times; whether little tension or beastly tension, and whether a roller coaster of tension, drama is all tension, the action which absorbs the attention of the viewer or reader.  And I repeat the word ‘tension’ because this is a MUST DO in any creative endeavor.  Also, remember that you can pick between the two crisis to make tension fit in your story and genre; this reasonable and wise choice will make your story stand out and create reality, even if it is a fantastical story–i.e., reality is about how well the details and the carrying out of the story is evoked in the mind of the viewer. 
A great formula for explosive drama is this one:  When it comes to the situations or the plot of the story surrounding the protagonist–  As the protagonist in your story, for example, becomes less active and more passive, less certain of his inner strength and positive purposes, so it is the ambitions, the behaviors, the wickedness and intentions of those who surround him who now have another characterization in your story.  The common compromise here is when the protagonist appears undecided and emotionally deterred for the first three quarters of the piece or art, but then that same protagonist is forced into a definitive commitment in the final quart, a positive action.  The protagonist goes through all this hardships and struggles within himself so he can learn strength and wisdom to conclude in a positive note–for example, one of my favorites, as in Rocky, where he is a nobody and really feels like a nobody, but at the end gets inner strength and great love to finalize as a champion off the hard streets.
But more complex and hard to understand for the ‘Unsophisticated audience’ is the drama where the completely passive, undecided and purposeless protagonist does not have any major change of heart.  There is always danger of this kind of story not being too popular for the masses; but, on the other hand, there is a depth here that the avant-garde types or more ‘Sophisticated audience’ will admire as true artistic innovation, mostly because it manages to avoid the obvious and delves into the deeper, emotional issues of the human being, as in “The mirror” (1975 Russian film) or “The seventh seal” (1957 film)–i.e., these films, are more philosophical in nature and try to delve into the experience of being human, the beliefs, the judgments, the essence of the mental and emotional conflict these movies, as well as books since it is about all stories in any art form, invite a lot of questions; they do not sermonize nor belittle any specific demographic but instead, it just state different opinions and let’s the audience discuss its deeper meaning and the meaning they will take away for themselves.
 
So whatever is your drama type, always remember tension and adapt the action to your story.
Drama is a word derived from the Greek word for 'Action._Whatever the plot or the genre is the tension must be continuous.
