Wealthy people with a magnificent homes and with many friends sometimes suffer terribly…
Humble laborers or middle class people may at times, live in complete happiness.
Many multimillionaires suffer from sexual impotence and rich wives cry bitterly over their husbands’ infidelities…
In this day and age, the rich people of the earth look like vultures in golden cages. They cannot live without bodyguards…
Statesmen drag chains; they are never free; wherever they go they are surrounded by people armed to the teeth…
Let us study this situation more in detail. We need to know what life is. Everyone is free to think, as he/she likes…
Regardless of whatever people say, indeed, nobody knows anything. Life is a problem that no one understands…
When people want to freely tell us the story of their life, they quote events, names and surnames, dates, etc. and feel satisfied telling their stories…
Those wretched people ignore that their stories are incomplete because events, names and dates are merely the outer aspect of the movie, the inner aspect is missing…
It is urgent to know “States of Consciousness”. To each event corresponds one or another state of mind.
States are internal and the events are external. So, external events are not everything.
By internal states is understood good or bad disposition, preoccupations, depression, superstition, fear, suspicion, pity, self-consideration, overestimation of oneself, states of feeling happy, states of pleasure, etc.
Unquestionably, internal states may correspond exactly to external events, or originate from them, or they may not have any relationship with them whatsoever…
In any case, states and events are different. Events do not always correspond exactly to states which we would be expecting.
Our internal state during a pleasant event may not correspond with it.
Our internal state during an unpleasant event may not correspond with it.
When long awaited events finally take place, we often feel that something is missing…
Certainly, the corresponding internal state which should have been combined with the external event was missing…
Many times an unexpected event comes to be the one that has provided us with the best moments.
