Meditation • You don't need to convince anyone

of what you already are

➻➻➻➻

It is unnecessary to try to persuade or convince oneself of something that already exists within them. It is a waste of mental effort and energy.

When you are aware of your true identity, you simply exist. You do not need to prove anything to yourself or anyone else.

Remind yourself that you exist and that you are alive, which can help you stay grounded in the present moment. This awareness of being present in the moment is crucial because it allows you to focus your attention on what is happening right now, rather than getting lost in thoughts about the past or future.

Everyone's perception of reality is unique. We all have our own experiences, beliefs, and values that shape how we see and interpret the world around us. We are all living in our own dreams and creating our own realities. Just recognize that what may be true for one person may not be valid for another.

❈❈❈❈

When we are aware of this fact, we can begin to appreciate and respect the diversity of perspectives and experiences that exist in the world. This openness to different ideas and perspectives can help us cultivate a more compassionate and understanding attitude towards others.

I am, right now, really into this type of meditation, which is just the process of sitting still, watching your breath, and being very aware of your thoughts, emotions, and the way your body feels. Something called "mindfulness." It's the practice of mindfulness, which is just watching the way that you act and the way that you feel and the way that you think and becoming aware of the roots of a lot of the emotions that exist in you.

Magic Happens When People Follow Divine Advice

The perfect unfolding is the unfolding that keeps unfolding. Manifestations never stop manifesting. Everything is becoming more. On the way to that “more-ness” a human being can experience extreme delight. That delight needn’t be a one-time thing.

I tell all my clients, and anyone else who will listen, that people can have everything they want. But they can’t have something others have a say in if others don’t want that. For example, someone I spoke with recently strongly argued for “Civil Rights”. She is a minority and has many experiences with discrimination. So her strident call for “Civil Rights” comes stained with painful interpretations of her past experience.

That’s why, when she clamors for “Civil Rights” extreme duress accompanies her clamor. Her painful experiences are so present, they create a reality opposite what she wants. While her words argue for Civil Rights, in other words, her much more powerful vibrational emanation argues for oppression. 

In that alignment, she aligns with those who find satisfaction in oppression. And, she, perpetuates what she doesn’t want.

The good life

Meanwhile my clients who align themselves with their desires experience something different. They practice telling better stories about their past. And doing that, they find liberation from painful experiences in the past. Indeed, they actually change the past. They turn it from something painful to something that served them. Then they learn to follow their impulses. That’s when they step into the Charmed Life I write about. Like this client:

^^A client changes his past…right before his eyes…Then finds delight in the present moment unfolding.

Life is magical. Those not experiencing that will dispute that assertion. But that’s because, for them, life ISN’T magical. And that’s because they put too much attention on what they don’t want. Doing that, they create more of what they don’t want.

But life is still magical for those people too. Their lives, like my clients, reflect back to them what they put their attention on. If only they’d put their attention on what they want, then they’d get more of that. Then they’d see the magic. The good life.

Impulses always lead to magic

But when someone focuses on what they don’t want, their impulses will run them. They’ll take action and that action will rendezvous them with more unwanted. Just like magic. Meanwhile, those who take charge of the process experience something different. The process is exactly the same. They still act on impulses. They still have the rendezvous.

The difference is, because they focus positively, they rendezvous with magical wanted experiences. Experiences that don’t bring oppression, but joy. Like the client above.

It’s no wonder so many life ho-hum lives. They don’t know what they’re doing. Not consciously anyway. Meanwhile, those who make the process conscious, then master it, discover how good life can get.

Are you ready for the good life?

Hi everyone! Are you looking for a way to find inner peace and balance in your life? Meditation might be the answer you're looking for! Here are 5 easy meditation techniques that you can practice daily to improve your mental and physical well-being:

Mindful Breathing: Find a quiet place and focus on your breath, inhaling and exhaling slowly and deeply. Try to clear your mind of any distractions and concentrate on the sensation of breathing in and out.

Body Scan: Lie down or sit comfortably and focus on each part of your body, starting from your toes and moving up to your head. Observe any physical sensations, tension, or discomfort and release it with each exhale.

Loving-Kindness: Imagine yourself surrounded by love and positive energy. Repeat the phrase "May I be happy, may I be healthy, may I be peaceful" and extend these wishes to others as well.

Visualization: Picture a peaceful scene or image in your mind, such as a calm beach or a beautiful sunset. Focus on the details and let yourself be immersed in the calming atmosphere.

Walking Meditation: Take a slow walk in nature or a quiet place, focusing on each step and the sensation of your feet touching the ground. Observe your surroundings and let yourself be present in the moment.

Meditation • toxic positivity

When researching gratitude, it's easy to make an assumption that gratitude becomes toxic positivity.

“good thoughts”

When talked about “good thoughts” during meditation practice, I was thinking of what is good thoughts , is it a way to suppress/ invalid our negative thoughts and feelings in order to maintain the positivity of our mind?

What’s the best you can do

"good thought", which resonates with me a lot - that we can actually seek forgiveness, give back to the community, think about how we can help, and consider the best thing we could do in a given situation. We should extensively think about what we have learned from a situation in order to give back or make others aware of similar circumstances.

These are the good thoughts that we need.

We can sit with discomfort and, at the same time, have the right influence to make an act of service for others, instead of staying with some toxic positivity: “looking on the bright side”.

act of services

❥❥❥❥

As I delved into the world of astrology and meditation, I came to a realization about myself. I discovered that one of my main love languages is the act of service. Whether it's something small like cooking a meal or a larger task like helping someone move, it's wonderful that you enjoy making others' lives easier.

I think that my desire to make a positive impact on those around me and show my love and appreciation through my actions is what drives me.

Sit with your darkness, so you can sit with the one you love in the dark

It's an amazing feeling to know that I can brighten someone's day just by doing something kind for them.

The more I give of myself, the happier I feel. That's why I try to include acts of service into my daily routine as much as possible. It's just a small way that I can make a difference in the world.

♡♡♡♡

I suppose that a humble attitude is the key to going through darkness to the lightness. One must be humble enough to observe and detach from their own thoughts.

Unexpected difficulties often overwhelm our natural coping mechanisms, making us prone to burnout😫 and hypertension🤯.

Meditation🧘‍♀️ connects our internal & exterior environment. By meditating, we can successfully tame our minds to survive the storm.

Encontrar un equilibrio en la vida

“El Budismo no te dirá qué es lo verdadero y qué es falso, pero te anima a que lo descubras tú mismx. Aprender a no estar ni demasiado tensx ni demasiado relajadx es un viaje personal mediante el cual descubrimos la manera de encontrar el propio equilibrio: cómo distenderse cuando nos encontramos demasiado encrispadxs y cómo volvernos mas elegantes y precisxs cuando nos percibimos demasiado desenvueltxs.”

En 1979, en un seminario de Vajradhatu, Trungpa Rinpoché enseñaba las nueve maneras diferentes de descansar la mente. No hay que ver estas enseñanzas como un proceso de etapas continuadas, sino como nueve sugestiones diferentes, nueve herramientas útiles sobre la manera de reposar el espíritu en un estado natural.

1° Reposar el espíritu. Volverse uno con la respiración; esto no quiere decir “eliminar todo el resto” sino que la enseñanza sugiere dedicar un 25% a la observación de la respiración, pero mantenerse en el lugar y momento presente. 

2° Reposar sin interrupción. Esta instrucción propone prolongar esta sensación de ser uno con la respiración sin verse perturbado por otros estímulos, externos o internos. 

3° Reposar ingenuamente. Esto es adoptar una actitud ingenua frente a la práctica de la meditación, adoptar una actitud parecida a la de un niñx, y no caer en interpretaciones intelectuales.

4° Reposar minuciosamente. Autorizarse a instalarse y permitirle al espíritu calmarse. El maestro da el ejemplo del pensamiento que a veces parece una mosca posada en la punta de la nariz y, otras veces, se siente como un elefante sentado sobre nosotrxs. Esta instrucción invita a captar los destellos de pensamiento y a no enfrentarse a ellos. 

5° Amaestrar el espíritu. Adoptar una actitud de amistad. Es el proceso que consiste en ver lo que es, tomar nota, aceptar y dejar que la vida siga su curso; lo que, desde el punto de vista de la técnica, significa volver a la simplicidad de la inmediatez, a la simplicidad de la expiración. Amaestrar significa, entonces, que la meditación crea una actitud no agresiva hacia todo lo que se produce en nuestro espíritu. 

6° Apaciguarse. Las enseñanzas dicen: “Reconoce, antes que nada, que toda práctica va acompañada de un sentimiento de decepción y que esta es la experiencia de todxs aquellxs que se toman la práctica en serio. Cuando esto aparece, hay que encontrar el humor y la calma para continuar.” Apaciguarse es tomar conciencia de la condición humana, con mucho cariño y simpatía; es sensibilizarse frente al hecho de que la capacidad de practicar y de amigarse con unx mismx es algo raro y precioso. 

7° Estar perfectamente en paz. Esta instrucción concierne particularmente a los obstáculos y sus respectivos antídotos.

Si la agresión nos vuelve incapaces de abandonar nuestros pensamientos de resentimiento, de amargura o de cólera, deberiamos darle mas importancia a la respiración. Esto ayudará a conectarse con la frescura y el espacio.  Si es la pasión o el ferviente deseo de algo o alguien que nos ocupa, el antídoto es volver al cuerpo, revisar la postura, conectarse con las sensaciones físicas.  Si la ignorancia y la somnolencia nos interrumpen, debemos conectar con el espacio en el que nos encontramos; podemos observar como la respiración y nuestro cuerpo se distribuyen en ese espacio.

8° Concentrar la atención en un solo punto. Esto comprende dos partes: la primera, es la noción de partir de cero. Si nuestro espíritu se encuentra atascado y eso nos desespera, dejemos de practicar inmediatamente. Abandonemos todo tipo de lucha. Conservemos la postura, para no dejarnos llevar completamente, pero, por otro lado, permitamos a nuestro espíritu relajarse y pensar en otra cosa. La segunda parte de esta enseñanza propone darse cuenta de que no somos víctimas de nada ni un paciente que debe ser curado. Recuerda que todos podemos encontrar el propio equilibrio. Hay formas de ser lo que queramos ser y de hacer lo que queremos hacer. No tenemos por qué considerarnos víctimas de nuestro propio espíritu. 

9° Reposar de todas formas. Se trata de un tipo de estado de absorción que elimina todo el resto. Esta forma pone el acento en la actitud fundamental de la meditación que consiste en hacerse amigx de unx mismx, en establecer consigo una relación totalmente honesta y franca.

Podemos dejar nuestro espíritu reposar en su estado natural.
