But what makes the difference between somebody possessing this power and using it for the sake of humanity or somebody using it for the not betterment of humanity? It's the character. The power is the same. It's the character. It's the carrier of the power. It's the one who is in control. who is responsible to hold this power, to maintain this power, that one must be trained as well.
And this is where the virtues hit in. The virtues are building the framework of the character, of the avatar, ultimately, that is then receiving all different types of training, skill training, that at least in the Shaolin tradition, we would say, it's good to know them.
So ultimately, like I said before, in the Shaolin traditional texts is broken down into 14 different virtues, four of them to be expected, another five virtues of action, another five virtues of the mind. Just simply when you will later on fly through it again, the virtues of action. What does it mean, virtues of action? It is how should you Behave. How should you behave? Behave in a loyal way.
Behave in a trustful way. Behave in a respectful way. Behave in a courageous way. So this is the how should you do something. And the virtues of mind, for example, they say, What is it that nourishes the way for you to put the virtues of action into practice? How can you be, how can you learn to behave respectfully?
Because naturally, if people like insulting you, you don't behave respectfully towards them. So how can you still behave respectfully, still be loyal to people? How do you do it? Well, then this is where it then comes to the virtues of the mind. To really learn, to be patient, to really know what does it mean to be persistent, to persevere during your training.
And this is ultimately how I would describe it to easily understand.
I would call it the religion of oneness. The religion of oneness. The religion of, I do believe that we are connected at some way. And it is my journey. I don't want to just intellectualize it. I do think the path is to lay out and remove all the friction and all the obstacles to just realize that it is like this.
This is maybe also like a very essential point along the complete line, whether somebody reads the book or whether somebody watches all these type of YouTube channels. I myself always grew up in the need to attain something, to add something up on top of my life. This tradition, the whole tradition I'm talking about, is actually quite the opposite.
That's why in the latest videos or publications, for example, I often mention that actually there is nothing I can give to anyone. It's not that you miss something in your life. Remember, you're not in a lack.
But in the moment where it feels like we are meeting and I give you something, when you even think that I'm giving you something and you are about to receive something, that's not the right state of mind already. I have nothing to give you. The only thing that I really try to do is take stuff away from you. takes things away from you that are covering that you see that you are complete.
Everything that builds up identity. Everything that builds up a stronger and stronger identity. Everything that you keep from the past in your mind. The more that you keep the past in the mind, the stronger your identity is. I do think this is one correlation that also goes hand in hand.
The more you keep past elements inside your mind, the less likely you will be able to break free into the future and open up for the possibilities that this lifetime might still have for you.
It's a difficult question. I'm not searching for happiness. I'm searching for peace. So my state of what I'm aiming for, I would say it is peace. Because happiness for me, yeah, taken by this word, if there's happiness, there is sadness. If something can rise, something must fall. If you can attain something, there's something to lose. That's why it's difficult. That's why I stopped the moment.
I don't know what type of happiness you mean. Being satisfied with where I'm standing, yes. Does it mean that I don't have hard moments? I have hard moments. And that's why for me, like, what is it I ultimately look for? I would call it, it's just peace. Are you at peace? More and more, yes. More and more.
I would call it karmic relations, karmic connections that you just think like, you cannot avoid them. You cannot avoid them anymore. What is karmic connections? Karmic connection meaning? Because your mother gave birth to you. Automatically, whatever your mother is doing or not doing, however the state of health of your mother is, it's going to affect you in a way.
So there are sometimes people in this world, you have a closer karmic relation towards them. So what they are doing is also going to affect you. And in my case, it's the same.
so meaning so literally real life speaking so my son yes he is a very strong karmic relation he's on the one side my own flesh and blood together with my beloved but it also means the way how my son feels it is affecting me and this is something that i still need to regulate learn to regulate Which also sometimes means, I mean, if you only sleep like two hours per night, then it is like this.
But you have good training to still maintain your peace afterwards. But these are simple things, yes.
Number one is, or one of the first things, is really try as often as you can to remind yourself and put yourself in that proper state of what you think you are. I wake up and try to not already have any type of thought from yesterday in my mind. I try to wake up empty. Let's call it like this. And meaning also... Try to, at all moments, immerse myself as much as I can in the present moment.
That's what it is. Live in the here and now. How you do this? To live in the here and now. Stop jumping into the past and stop jumping into the future. Then you live in the here and now. But you must practice it. And literally meaning, how you do it, make yourself empty. Because the only thing that fills your mind with past and future is your thoughts. The mind.
