There are non-negotiable things, and it’s important we draw a clear line implying there are limits, gates of our personal fortress, and personal space that cannot be trespassed. They’re part of the private space we need to function, work, train, step into our personal evolution, observe, and understand the universe we’re connected with. We need to attain clarity of mind and keep consciousness at hand to be able to clearly draw that line, establish the limits and build up the gates of our personal fortress that we need to be able and prepared to defend no matter the circumstances. If someone (anyone) insists in trespassing those limits even if receiving an alert/warning about that, we need to have clear in our mind that it’s that person’s problem and not ours. Let me give you an example. If a woman is walking through a given environment and a man approaches her in an attempt to force any type of sexual intercourse because he desires it, or tries to obtain anything she has with her, and she alerts/warns the man to keep the distance and he insists on entering her personal space, should she accept anything that man are doing? The answer is no. She has the right to clearly establish her limits and defend herself no matter the circumstances. Kindness and compassion have nothing to do with allowing anyone at any circumstances trespassing our limits, the gates of our personal fortress and personal space without our consent. There are limits that cannot be trespassed under any circumstances or we cannot be what we really are. The moment we realise that, it’s the moment we understand how peaceful we become when we’re able to clearly draw those limits, building up the gates of our personal fortress, which implies the duty of performing our body and mind training to get ready to apply defensive manoeuvres, consciously, meaningfully, and most importantly, with our mind at peace. 


Monasteries are external fortresses ensuring that people performing their training and pursuing their spiritual path would never have their limits and personal space trespassed without their consent. However, if we would like to perform our body and mind training and pursuing our spiritual path while in the middle of the society we’re part of, we need to be prepared to defend ourselves from the presence of darkness in the surroundings, as we wouldn’t have help from a monastery, a sacred space we share with others pursuing a similar spiritual path, and where its defence becomes a duty of everyone else involved. We may establish a monastery-like environment within our home, although we need to have clear in our mind that it’s not the same as being inside a real one.


The beauty of consciousness is understanding those differences and adapting them to establish a strong foundation where we can perform and practice our training, stepping into our personal evolution as the result of our progress. Establishing our limits and clearly drawing them in a conscious and meaningful way is essential to get prepared to attain unimaginable levels of peace of mind in circumstances that usually we expect not to do so. For those moments we set down our mind at peace, establishing a strong yet peaceful posture, we may say we’ve attained the clarity of mind for doing so. The cycle is then complete, requiring from now the personal effort to grow the magnitude and strength of its posture.


Let’s be brave to cultivate and nurture the beautiful light we’ve deep within no matter the circumstances. We would be capable of knowing when the cycle is complete, and therefore, getting prepared to attain unimaginable and extraordinary things with our mind at peace.


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 dif...

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...

  Do we really know all the details regarding something that someone is telling us? Probably not as we’re usually not the person who has experienced it. When we realise our intrinsic inability of being omnipresent, and the fact that people can be dishonoured, we understand why few people at strategic positions can deceive an entire population with almost no means of being unmasked from the deception they’re promoting. The inability of being omnipresent, and the fact that we need to deal with a huge number of dishonoured people, makes the need of establishing an inquisitive and non-judgemental attitude more important than ever. Recognising the presence of darkness in the surroundings is then essential to understand we’re not puppets at the hands of others. A conscious mind will never be. It’s a clear understanding we need to attain, preventing being conditioned to perform brainless actions on behalf of others, having no idea of what we’re doing in the present moment. We need to keep...
