Eternal and Unquenchable.

 

So many people in the world are ruled by hatred, fear, and the search for money and popularity that their minds are blind to the truth, to reality, they live in this illusion of their minds where everything truly important ages and so they have to compete violently and rush into situations, manipulate and scheme to become better, to become someone else, to become powerful in the eyes of society; for they truly hate themselves deeply and so seek things and accomplishments, and step on others and show their “superiority” just because they need to fill this emptiness they carry inside.

 

This is the ignorance in the conditioned brain, because they are ruled by dogmas, beliefs, ideas, traditions, memories, and all lifestyles and philosophies borrowed or stolen from others, taught to them and maintained since childhood, they compare themselves to others, they envy and do not know what love/a deeper connection really is.

 

The unquenchable fire of love and compassion for themselves and for others is buried under all these beliefs, traditions, ideas, and lifestyles of competition to see who is superior, who can be a better slave to money, hatred, and all commercialism, in general to a disgraceful society.

They cannot see and feel what lies in themselves buried and so they seek and seek, for ever more because they see themselves aging and time passing so they become impatient and agitated; therefore, they see life as ephemeral and rushing by, they do not understand that what is buried deep inside them, the unquenchable fire of love and compassion, makes them eternal, makes their minds pure, innocent and creative, absolutely free to see reality as it truly is, to see life as it is and find peace and patience from the tricks of time and all thoughts of violence.

“The most powerful weapon on earth is the human soul on fire.” ~ Ferdinand Foch; French general and Marshal.

The Spark of Intelligence.

The mind of man, in its lower, dormant state, is very conformist, opportunistic, it chooses the easiest and most popular path to follow; it does not create out of reason and love for itself but it designs and schemes paying attention to the world around it.
 

 

And the world around it is certainly ignorant and selfish, it does not look for peace and love, unity and uniqueness, it does not search for the growth of the individual; consequently, it seeks to consolidate itself and its power, its influence and control in these weak and lower-state minds, and all in order to selfishly feed its own ego, sell, and demonstrate power over others–comparison between peoples, between nations to see who is better – competition always.

Society, it does not matter what the media and slogans say, does not look to cultivate thinking minds, rich minds which use logic and question, because thinking minds are a danger to the established order, to the established norm; thus, society sells lies dressed as truths in order to slow the mind of the individual and make them followers, enslaves to their own greed of consolidation.

But there is the one individual who allows his mind to stop the chatter and see through the bullying of the demands of society, someone of higher intelligence who sees through the lies and facade of the media, religion, and the government; and, furthermore, this one is the person who steps away and focuses on himself, without being selfish, without following the mere rabble and those idiots in power who conspire to make him another robot without a thought of his own. 

To awaken to this is to realize deep within you that you can create and build yourself, that you find and discover happiness and success on your own and so you stop seeking it outside of yourself.

The spark of intelligence illuminates the human mind when we take time to stop our rushing thoughts from following others, the media, and all of society’s schemes; and so question ourselves, all we know and believe, all we have been taught in the past, even if whatever we believe seems at a first glance rational.  The lightning spark of thought generated in the solitary mind awakens and is able to function independently, richly, full of intelligence beyond what you now now and understand as intelligence.

The beginning of unique, rich, creative thought, comes when you begin to see through the schemes of society; as you question yourself, the thoughts you have, the feelings you have, and the intentions and reasons you have.

The answer is inside the question.

 

“The majority is never right.  Never, I tell you!  That’s one of these lies in society that no free and intelligent man can help rebelling against.  Who are the people that make up the biggest proportion of the population — the intelligent ones or the fools?”  ~ Henrik Ibsen; Norwegian playwright, theater director, and poet.

---

 

In a world where every decision is made for us, where religious pressures and society’s demands are waiting in every corner–i.e., you have to be in a romantic relationship to feel loved, you must read the scriptures and pray in order to be a good person, you have to watch TV to be like the rest and be informed about the world, you ought to read books to fill your mind with knowledge so you are intelligent like others, you need this and that to become this and that, and the rest of the nonsense. 

 

But with all this confusion and demands going on, how can you look for truth and answers to actually better your life…??

The problem here is not doing all these things, but the problem is what these things do to the mind.  The human mind tends to obsess or fix over the things it does, the mind’s world is all these things it does, all these things it experiences; so whenever a problem arises it looks for answers or solutions in these routines–in books, in religions, in relationships, in work, etc. etc.

But this search is not something reliable, because it brings out more questions and dilemmas.  What is God…??  Where does he/she live…?? Where would I find him/her…??  How should a saint behave…??  How am I to behave to be morally conscious…??  How to balance public life and personal life…??  The mind then is in confusion, because whatever the answers found, there is always more opinions, more philosophies, more ideas, and so deeper question arise… and more… and more…

So, the answers are rarely found in the outer life, in the outward seeking; but the answer lies within you, because the one asking questions is thought, your obsessive thinking; and behind thought there is silence, self-awareness where no questions exist.  Questions are brought on by confusion, and behind your thoughts, in that precise and calm essence of being, is you, the answer of all the questions your ego can fabricate.
 

It is only in this very self-awareness where you find no confusion and no anxiety, because here there are no questions…

 

  “Being an intellectual creates a lot of questions and no answers.” ~ Janis Joplin; American singer and songwriter.

Just a reflection...

“What the superior man seeks is in himself; what the small man seeks is in others.” ~ Confucius.

---

Sunlight fell upon the wall; the wall received a borrowed splendor.  Why set your heart on a piece of earth, O simple one?  Seek out the source which shines forever.” ~ Rumi.

---

The world is a reflection of oneself, and that is the reason why people find misery or joy in life; and that is also why people create God and angels and Heaven and Hell–all these have the qualities, thoughts and feelings of expression of a human being.

This reflection is actually believed by the asleep masses to be real, but being just a reflection it carries the crooked and ignorant beliefs and life views of people; therefore, when the mind in question is filled with Bible or fantastical religious stories, when filled with egoistical views of saviors and helpers coming to rescue you, when you depend on mere reflections out in the world of form to feel happiness and love within you, then, it is not real, it is just your ego designing the illusion, it is not love or happiness but attachment and pleasure.

The seeking is pointless, it is like you searching the lit dot, the reflection of a beam of light from a flashlight on the white wall; thus, it is not the real thing, but everything, each little thing you seek is within you.  Out there there is only reflections of what your own mind carries, and these reflections look as real and heartfelt as the real thing, indeed because everything is your mind; so, everything you seek, everything you experience daily, everything you are day to day, everything you believe and see in the world is your mind and the polluted or healthy state of your mind. 

  You literally, and even scientifically, create and carry the world, Heaven and Hell, in your mind; so, when you seek the reflection of something in the world, your ego is deceiving you into believing that the reflection is real.

But to find what you seek, you must go to the source; and the source of the world and all that is in it, of the universe and its mysteries, is in you.  By knowing the source of the reflection, then you know by yourself is just a reflection.  By knowing the flashlight, then you know by yourself the lit dot on the wall is just a reflection.

 

When you know the reflection, you stop seeking.

Out of your head.

“All lives have triumphs and tragedies, laughter and tears, and mine has been no different. What really matters is whether, after all of that, you remain strong and a comfort to your loved ones. I have tried to meet that test.” ~ Pat Nixon; First Lady of the United States from 1969 to 1974.

---

“It is not living that matters, but living rightly.” ~ Socrates.

---

People get so caught up in their heads, in their problems, in their ideas not being recognized, in their obsessions, that they forget to live each moment with joy and understanding.
 

The value we can find in living the moment with integrity and comprehension cannot be compared with anything else; and that is because your life’s wealth is not in what you pursue or even in what you can fix of a certain problem with much work and dedication, but it is in each moment which you live mindfully by knowing that you do your best and that you do it unselfishly.

And being present also means being thankful for what you have and for the people around you; this is the best and the only way you find the true value in life.  Because, even though society may bombard us with “buy this, buy that,” “Go to church and praise some bearded lunatic up in the skies,” “Get married and have lots of kids,” “Work hard and make lots of money,” and all this garbage, what truly matters is that you live rightly and to the best of yourself so you can give the best example.

It is extremely important that you can see the truth in this, and that you can be free to stay in the truth and get out of your own head.  Leave the stress and the problems and live in the moment, in reality, knowing that the true experience of life’s value is in the Now.

“Be happy for this moment. This moment is your life.” ~ Omar Khayyam; Persian mathematician, astronomer, and poet.

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.

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!

TRUTH.

GOD-LIKE.

“Work out your own salvation.  Do not depend on others.”  ~ Buddha.

---

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

---

Jesus, Buddha, and others never followed anybody, never belonged to any religion, never praised any man; thus, their minds were free of beliefs and dogmas, fear and imaginative stories, liberated from all this nonsense that veils the eyes of man today.

So, why do you ignorantly follow others…??  Why do you insist on praising The Bible, The Quran, and all this nonsense which only brings more confusion to the mind and serves the purpose of creating more illusion, the purpose of distancing yourself from divinity, from God, from the truth…??

If self-love is the way, the ones who follow others can never attain its eternal joy, nor can they truly awaken; for if you follow others, in any way, then it means you are switching your attention, your love, your divine energy, your trust, onto others and their madness, therefore you are neglecting your self, your soul, by fueling the ego, by praising the ego.




The ego grows by the attention you allow onto the world outside of yourself, the attention which you allow onto the beliefs and dogmas of society and all religions.
Religions, as societies, are born out of thought/the ego of man, designed to control man and its relation to all divinity; because if religion can control man (as it currently does), then its power and wealth are met.

Religions make billions every year and pay no taxes, they take from the poor and do not help end poverty.
When these institutions commit crimes (as they usually do, but are hidden from the general public), nothing happens to them, the law just gives them a fine and looks the other way, because their power is too large due to billions of fools that follow them blindly.

Do not be a fool, stop reading The Bible and all these books while thinking you are doing the right thing.  Learn the life philosophy of Jesus and Buddha, for they did not follow anybody. Be a leader unto your own self.
Just because you were born into a Catholic family, or any other religion, that does not mean you have to follow that blind path of asleep mediocrity.  I stopped following all religion and made my own path, started the magnificent awakening process due to my mind being absolutely free, and so able to free my spirit from the chains of beliefs and dogmas. 
So when are you starting your awakening and following your own path…??
