EXCERPTS
THE ILLUSION OF CURRENT REALITY
You see things; and you say “Why?” But I dream things that never were; and I say “Why not?”
- George Bernard Shaw
Watch and learn from the children how they spontaneously get rid of negative emotional states and how they try to occupy their attention with good and pleasant things! We, on the other hand, seem to feel that we must do the unpleasant things, the unpleasant obligations, to go against ourselves in the name of something or somebody, in order to solve the problems that we have.
Nothing could be further from the truth. We didn’t come to this world, so beautiful, so superb, magnificent and powerful, so that we can spend our time and energy on things that make us discontent, sad, despondent and unhappy. No, on the contrary! We’re here so that we can live every day in the way that we want to live it, in the way that will make us feel truly alive, happy and satisfied. When you die, you won’t be able to take neither the money that you’ve earned, the houses, apartments and cars that you have nor will you be able to take the people that you love with you…you’ll only take your experiences, doesn’t matter if they were good or bad. That’s why it’s important that they be as you wanted them to be. That’s why the most important thing in the world is to feel good and to feel good as often as possible. Because at the end of the day, that’s what “counts”.
The widely accepted philosophy of life says we need to take pains in order to get what we want, that we need to work where we don’t want to so that we can make some money, that we need to live with somebody that we don’t love that much just so that we can have a family and children, that we need to stay in contact with people that are unpleasant just so that we can have friendships. In a word, to make compromises with our real wishes and needs so that we can achieve our goals. This philosophy is based on the fear that we can’t have what we want unless we sacrifice something in return.
First and foremost, we can, as we’ve seen even with scientific proofs, create for ourselves anything that we’ll focus our attention on in the right way. We have a far more superior mind than any circumstance or situation that we’re in.
Second, the limits of what we can and how we can are determined solely by our imagination and our beliefs. Science has proved that through experiments.
Third, we can’t achieve our set goals not even by giving up and compromise if the vibration that we emit is negative most of the time (because we usually do things that we don’t want to do). Why am I telling you this? So that you can understand how pointless it is to live your life not the way you want to live it but the way you think you have to live it! The way you think it’s expected of you. That way you’ll have a lot less pleasure in your life and you’ll achieve your goals slowly, with difficulties or you won’t achieve them at all.
