Complicated life

Tyrannical automatisms

Fear of being happy: your problem.

Do not submit to the system of cultural vices. Rebel, not to break norms, but to overcome prejudices, starting with the biggest of all: that which dictates that it is not possible to work towards the achievement of happiness, intimate well-being, peace of conscience – fundamental foundations for all others results of excellence in life.

What does your soul ask of you now? More time with loved ones? More energy for your vocation? More commitment to spiritual activities?…

What makes you believe that you should not invest in these axial fields for now? What justification is there for postponing the essentials? What morality supports neglecting beloved hearts, the voice of conscience, the ideal of service to God?

Start today, start now. Don’t procrastinate any longer what cannot be postponed. Life doesn’t wait: it’s urgent. Happiness is not a goal: it is a standard. Live it, or you will not be alive, but will only exist, under the effect of tyrannical, destructive, malevolent, unhappy automatisms!…

Discovering the map to the greatest treasure

Not by many requests to God…

Not by mental cries to Heaven…

Not by trying to bribe the Powers of the Universe with empty promises…

Not by wanting so much, nor by intensely believing in the power of faith…

Not even by the diligent effort in studying, planning or working to obtain moral merits and achieve practical results based on the Law of Return…

Yes, all these postures or tools can lead you to a certain degree of success in your efforts to accomplish specific goals, depending on the circumstances, people, place, time, culture and values involved.

But none of the effects achieved will be complete if, before any decision or action, you do not seek the alignment with your conscience, with the Kingdom of God within you¹, as taught by the Christ Jesus, because only in the sacred chamber of your own heart will you notice what is the true calling for your soul.

Without this, beloved child, you will inevitably end up taking winding routes of destiny, if not completely off the path or in the opposite direction of your authentic ideal.

Listening only to reason, pragmatism and the logic of survival, the individuals easily delude themselves as to the most sensible choices for their profound happiness, that which is filtered through the sieves of the peace of duty righteously fulfilled.

Instead of excessively focusing on external achievements like power, prestige or fortune, pay attention to your feelings related to Transcendentality, to what is dear to your Spirit, even excluding meeting the expectations of the dominant mores, social demands or the dictates of family, including those established by the dearest loved ones. And rest assured: the intuitions about the best to do, even if vague in their first manifestations, will become progressively clearer, more continuous and broader.

Once you have adopted this intimate attitude, you will gradually but surely find the map with the path to the secret cave where the most precious treasure of happiness and personal fulfillment that you crave so much is hidden, and perhaps you do not even know you are looking for it, because you cannot even conceive of the existence of something so special and miraculous, within yourself!…
