Day 35: Invisible barriers between people (Backchat on smoke)

Not all that is in my mind is real. It is only real if I allow myself to participate as the mind. Just because my mind is all that I know, it simply shows me how limited a human being can become. Imagine you have always lived in the same house. The same furniture. Sometimes a new toy. Sometimes it is sunny outside, other times it is raining... You got used to this house. It is warm in here. You know what to do. This space gives a sense of security because it is small and gives the impression that you know it all. Welcome to the illusion of the mind. The simply fact that we allow ourselves to feel lost outside our mind-houses proves that the security isn't real in first place.

Just because I always thought/was educated that smoking is bad, does it make it bad? It is bad in my mind, but it should not be bad in someone else's who smokes...

This week I am realising how the mind creates invisible barriers between people. The barrier only exists in my mind - it is not physically real. The smoke is not a barrier. The only barrier that exists was created by accumulated thoughts against smoking that I have been feeding since ever! None of my parents smoke and curiously, I have been living with smokers. It is something new for me.

A new house implies new behaviour. The old furniture does not fit anymore. It is time to open the windows... and let the smoke in, to finally let it go... with no anger attached. Being attached to ideas is the biggest prison.
 
It is now a great opportunity to explore this point within myself. I am working on a Mind Construct (Structural Resonance Alignment course) to de-construct all this anger towards smoke and tobacco. Without expecting, I started to cry while writing. Memories that I was not even aware of keeping... One of them goes back to my secondary school where I remember to smoke to be with the "cool" group. I quickly gave up of that idea because the smell was not something that I enjoyed. I was perceiving cigars as something "cool" and stylish while I was feeding a contradiction based on my idea that smoking was wrong and bad for health. Keeping angry inside is much worse...
There is so much that I am not aware of yet...
I will continue my writings on Self-forgiveness. There is so much to let go.
For now, I am pushing myself to stand one and equal with the cigar, with the smoke, with the ashes, with the smell... I breathe.

Day 34: New fashion in prehistoric minds

Why do we feel great when wearing new clothes?
Why is there excitement when buying something new (even in second hand)?
Do my eyes need something new? But isn't fashion cyclical?...

New fashion in a pre-historical mind. What does this mean? Where is our focus going to... The mind is spinning around along with our likes and dislikes, ideas, beliefs, perceptions, images... and money feeds the pattern.
I see people on the street. I am part of the crowd and I find myself playing around with thoughts and comparisons towards what I see.
I see the so called London fashion style all around. The powerful marketing of the shops.

What about that which we DON'T SEE? The invisible thoughts. The secret mind. The constant back chats. The fears. The anxieties. Self-judgements. Judgements towards others. Just because we don't see it, it does not mean is not there. Quite the opposite: it has the biggest impact in everything around us. It has the origin of all the caos that surround, call it greed, competition, anger, envy, hate... And this is pre-historical, isn't it?

Why do men still think of women as the prey? Wearing the most expensive tie does not change anything really: it is only the belief and the perception that one may have about 'someone with a tie'.

Will an iPad remove one's inner fears? Buying another gadget will keep my I'eyes entertained for a while...so that I forget the secret mind and keep the illusion.

Will the high heels empower women? Superiority is a perception of separation. Why does one need to look like 'something'? Such a self-limitation. How come we still allow such slavery? For as long as each one participates in this mind possession, the human deception will be 'seen' to be acceptable.
To simply exist is not enough for a human being so we keep us entertained with conflict towards one another, between brands and companies, in sports and in politics: right-left polarity of the brain was copied and pasted to the Parliament room...
We are building layers around ourselves, make up, filling our lives with entertainment and avoiding looking at what we don't see - looking inside. Stop and realise oneself. Stopping the mind gives space for Life...


For how long are we going to ignore who we really are...
For how long have we been entertaining ourselves? - since ever.
If we had already realise who we really are, as human and as beings, then this world would be already a place of human-kindness.


Breathe with me. It is the same oxygen! We are made of the same matter. This is what really matters.

Day 33: Brian Haw: last time outside British Parliament

Most of the Londoners knew Brian, the activist man who has been living in a tent in front of the British Parliament over the last 10 years.

Brian set up camp outside the UK parliament in 2001 to protest against British and US foreign policy and became a street hero, sleeping next to Churchill and Mandella's statues. Earlier this year, the camp became the Democracy Village in the gardens in front of the parliament, later removed by the police.

On Sunday June 19, Brian died while sleeping. He was 62.

As one can read on the newspaper, Brian endured threats, violence and abuse for the duration of his protest. "I want to go back to my own kids and look them in the face again," he wrote in 2002, "knowing that I've done all I can to try and save the children of Iraq and other countries who are dying because of my government's unjust, amoral, fear- and money-driven policies".

I ask myself - is this the best way to reach the policies that one wants to change? Will this have any affect whatsoever in the system itself? No. A big stance implies big steps within the system. Brian started his journey to the Parliament opening the way for many people to get involved in the protests. But now it is time to keep walking. To go ahead. The high ceilings of the Parliament imply big stances and this is the challenge of the next generations. There's no point in blaming politicians - it is far more effective if people stand up in politics within the system and become part of its change.

Would Brian support an Equal Money System knowing that this is the most viable solution for the current human needs? The answer is within us who live now. One man, one vote. Each one has a say as long as there's self-will. But no one walk with an empty stomach. Are we going to walk for an Equal Money System or are we going to stop at the Parliament's door?

Going further brings the fear of the unknown. But what we have known thus far isn't definitely the best we, as Humanity, can achieve...
 
"These children and people of other countries are every bit as valuable and worthy of love as my precious wife and children." said Brian.

Indeed, EVERYONE is worthy and valuable. So let's all stand up for equal access to Life: standing up at home, at work and in everything we do for the best of everyone around us, and consequently around the world.

Day 32: Desteni Forum, a Self-Honest website - my Intro

The post below is originally from my introduction thread on the new Introduction to Desteni Forum! Check out what a Self-Honest website is at this new forum - dare to share, dare to ask questions, dare to get physical!

After almost three years of getting to know Desteni's materials, it is a clear fact to me that it has been one of the best things I came across in my Life. Looking back in time: I was a 21 year old student of international relations and politics, believing that I had enough knowledge to understand the world... Well, knowledge existed, as well as a vision about the world, however, the puzzle was incomplete - I was missing myself in this whole story. Interestingly, by that time I got weight for the first time, as I was so focused in acquiring knowledge and information without considering my physical support. I spent that summer with Joao, a musician friend of mine who shared with me practical clues of common sense and equality - I was completed amazed with information so different from what I had so far. Things were making sense to me and I could apply it to my studies: it is just incredibly sad the lack of equality within the world system, where countries/people fight with each other without allowing themselves to create another reality. This is exactly what I realised with Desteni: I am a creator in every moment of breath and I am walking here one and equal with everyone else. Step by step I increased my self-awareness in the world towards what I would see in the news, in politics and economics, for example. By realising the mirror of the bubble in which each one of us has been living so far, I started to forgive myself for accepted thoughts, fears, resistances and self-judgements that I was deliberately projecting into the world. Another amazing result from my participation within Desteni was a total re-definition of relationships. I am now in an Agreement with Joao in equal self-support and the exercises from the Structural Resonance Alignment were extremely effective in my relationship with my father and mother.

It is just incredible to see the layers I have been trapping myself in and consequently my participation in the world, based on ideas, beliefs and memories. Based on that, the patterns and missed-takes became repetitive in my experiences. Different scenarios but the same behaviour. Until I stopped! This opened a whole new range of perspectives much more coherent with the initial vision I had about the world: I always defended honesty, equality and human rights, however these principles seemed to be simply ideas. Also, I never really considered SELF-Honesty and SELF-responsibility towards it.

By realising that this new reality of the world could be possible within a system of Equality, all of the Desteni project confirmed its completeness. It is now so clear to me that Heaven on Earth and the Best for All are the most directive paths that human beings can take, for themselves and for the others. IT IS POSSIBLE!! Finally, on the top of such incredible inside-out transformation, I totally embraced the Equal Money System, an innovative economic platform that will put together solutions to guarantee a good Life for everyone. By letting go of political definitions and historical fears, I am allowing myself to apply my knowledge into practical solutions for a problem-solving society where everyone has equal respect. The biggest illusion within the current economic system is the belief that we are free. There's more slavery today than ever before... Starting by the slavery of the mind, thoughts, patterns, personality and ending up in a world of polarity where starvation is still a fact... Non-sense.

Within this Process I am honouring Life here, in its all living manifestations. The Process is already here to everyone, whether one is aware of it or not. So if I could change myself for a better human being, what would stop me from doing it? Plus, what if that change would immediately be reflected in my participation in the world? I am the answer.

I am extremely grateful to Desteni Productions and everyone who has been STANDING FOR AND AS LIFE!
