It’s time to look to the past to identify traces of the presence of darkness we are facing in the present moment. When we start looking 10, 15, or even more than 30 years back in the past—depending on our current age—we can recognise patterns of the same negative conditioning we are experiencing. It’s extremely important to put things in the current perspective, understanding the conditioned behaviour we have to deal with and the type of obnoxious situations we have to be part of. The moment we realise that if we embrace all negativity we have contact with we are doomed, It is the moment we understand that walking the awful path of darkness represents being influenced to do things aside from our love nature, where the consequence is getting into a deep loop of suffering alone, motivated by the belief of making a difference in the name of the greater good. It’s time to be aware and awaken to the fact that deceptions, atrocities, and violations of fundamental human rights we are subjected to are there to push the self to the path of darkness. Keeping that priceless piece of knowledge in mind and consciousness at hand are fundamental to step into our personal evolution, making us stronger and resilient to the presence of darkness while walking the path towards a meaningful life.
Let’s do the exercise of looking back to the past to understand the present moment. The exercise of looking back to the past is important to recognise the illusions we have contact with, which may have influenced the self towards the path of darkness while we have had little or no understanding of our own suffering and the presence of darkness we have to face in the environment we are inserted into. The moment we wake up to realise darkness is present in the environment we are inserted into, it is the moment we understand that keeping consciousness at hand represents a relief into the duty of dealing with obnoxious behaviours in the scene we are part of, where everything we have experienced makes sense in the big puzzle related to the global suffering we are able to observe in the present moment.
Let’s imagine we are the heir to the throne of an important reign and we are not aligned with the values promoted by darkness. If we become the ruler of that reign, it would represent a big problem to darkness, as it would be more difficult to perform the negative conditioning we are subjected to into a reign where the ruler keeps consciousness at hand, making no conditioned decisions. Therefore, if we are in a land where everyone is conditioned and we keep consciousness at hand no matter the circumstances, we are the king/queen being targeted in the environment we are inserted into, as we are highlighted by the beautiful light we generated from within. If the king/queen embraces darkness, that inner strength and light get obfuscated, which implies the dominance of darkness in the surroundings and the presence of negativity deep in the self.
The more we are aware of what we are facing, the better we understand why keeping consciousness at hand and walking the path towards a meaningful life represent the liberation of the self from the slavery of suffering experienced in the path of darkness.
