Mind training is about gardening the self while we are observing the beauty growing at its own pace. We have to take care about what we put in the soil, and how we deal with what is on its surface, in order to ensure our garden, i.e. our mind, gets the proper nutrients to remain vivid, strong, and sharp, giving us back the beautiful results of our own intervention. Consciousness is the skillful gardener while unconsciousness represents that our garden is left alone for self-care, which may imply letting something not so good get into the soil. The moment we realise mind training is a personal and unique duty, it is the moment we understand we are the only ones able to achieve the unlimited beautiful results of its regular practise.


Let us get back to the fact we cannot control what is on the outside but we can control how we deal with what we have contact with. It is a matter of consciousness not letting any negativity get into our garden, right deep into our soil, spreading fast towards any thought we are able to produce. From time to time we make our own experiences to see if something we observe in the environment is good for our own mind. Sometimes it helps; sometimes it does not. The realisation of any result we may take from our garden is only possible with consciousness, the skillful gardener ready to work the way towards enlightenment, and out of darkness.


There is nothing so dark that cannot be enlightened, as there is nothing so enlightened that cannot be improved. Buddha, the enlightened one, has passed such beautiful realisation by saying his teachings are not to be practised out of understanding and application at our own perspective and relativity. Buddha has made clear we have the right to reject what he has promoted from his own personal experiences, which implies the beautiful wisdom of recognising he was not a perfect being but an equal, a creature of love with imperfections like anyone else. Acceptance of his sharings cannot be achieved by blind faith but rather by conscious practise of observing, analysing, and understanding the self. The practise of taking care of our own garden, full of love, kindness, and compassion deep within the heart.


It may take time to realise how to enhance the beauty we have inside, as it may take time to understand how to get consciousness grounded at hand. The moment we realise there is an unlimited power deep inside, it is the moment we understand enhancing the self is not something to be compared but get boosted by.


Namaste 💓💓💓💓💓💓💓

  It’s extremely important understanding why we need to step into our personal evolution, enhancing the self until we get totally aligned with our love nature and the universe itself. Such a fully alignment enables us to move as a whole unit combined with everything that make us alive, removing the need of the self, i.e., we become part of something bigger that is walking towards the same direction, consciously and meaningfully. We can imagine it as a group of people who have attained the same understanding of suffering, and therefore, any conscious decision regarding how to deal with negativity would be the same. Unfortunately, darkness uses a distortion of such a concept, which instead of promoting the use of consciousness, enforces the conditioning of the unconscious mind, implying individuals presenting the same behaviour by the simple fact they’ve been conditioned to do so rather than attained the same understanding to perform a similar decision. This minor yet fundamental differe

Human stupidity is indeed far beyond infinity. It’s to face such an unlimited source of negativity that we need to tap into the unlimited power we’ve deep within: the power of our love nature. Unfortunately, there’s nothing we can do but eliminate the lack of knowledge and stupidity within our own perspective and relativity, vanishing any trace of darkness and its associated negative conditioning influencing the self while experiencing a period of suffering. The moment we realise the need to erase darkness from our own perspective and relativity, it’s the moment we understand we’re actually manifesting light—consciously and meaningfully—from the inside out. It’s quite simple to vanish darkness from our own perspective and relativity, and it begins with doing the right thing, following the common laws we’re subjected to in the environment we’re inserted into. We need to clearly remember that common laws only exist to protect unconscious minds from themselves, as conscious being foll

The more we keep consciousness at hand to observe the present moment, the better we start understanding that time has passed but modern society is still the same as the one observed in ancient times. We have just changed a bit the common rules to prevent indiscriminate slaughtering on different disputes happening in areas with a more dense population. Deception, corruption, racism, discrimination, and any negativity are still being promoted by darkness, with a small but fundamental change: if we are not aligned with the chaotic behaviour established, we are considered sick and delusional, which is seen as a symptom of mental illnesses. Let’s just remember that the meaning of the prefix ‘de’ in English language denotes ‘removal or reversal’, which indicates that the society we live in is indeed an illusory scene fabricated and agreed by all conditioned minds present in a given environment. It’s by keeping consciousness at hand that we are able to understand that we live in a big and fab
