Please allow me to introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste
I've been around for a long, long year
Stole many a man's soul and faith
And I was 'round when Jesus Christ
Had his moment of doubt and pain
Made damn sure that Pilate
Washed his hands and sealed his fate
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name
But what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game
I stuck around St. Petersberg
When I saw it was a time for a change
I killed the Czar and his ministers
Anastasia screamed in vain
I rode a tank
Held a general's rank
When the Blitzkrieg raged
And the bodies stank
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name, oh yeah
What's puzzling you is the nature of my game, oh yeah
I watched with glee as your kings and queens
Fought for ten decades
For the Gods they made
I shouted out
"Who killed the Kennedy?"
When after all
It was you and me
So let me please introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste
And I laid traps for troubadours
Who get killed before they reached Bombay
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah
But what's puzzling you is the nature of my game, oh yeah
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah
But what's puzzling you is just the nature of my game
Just as every cop is a criminal
And all the sinners saints
As heads is tails just call me Lucifer
'Cause I'm in need of some restraint
So if you meet me
Have some courtesy
Have some sympathy, and some taste
Use all your well-learned politesse?
Or I'll lay your soul to waste, um yeah
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah
But what's puzzling you is the nature of my game, oh baby
Oh yeah
Tell me baby, what's my name
Oh tell me honey, can you guess my name?
Oh oh oh oh
Tell me honey, what's my name
Oh, just the sweetest, tell me what's my name?
Tell me, sweetie, what's my name
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah

Smarter than the Devil

Human existence is extremely complex. We are not just matter. The existing dimensions go far beyond the physical. At the same time, not everything I believe is true for someone.
Anyways. We are always evolving. Until recently, he believed in duality, light, and shadow. Today I no longer believe. We are pure and when we live in purity life is more fluid. The most magnificent power of the human being is purity in the heart. I have read about it and lived it, so I believe.
Everyone during adolescence went through one or more of the tricks that I will list. When we are teenagers we think we know everything, right ... Anyway. I am happy to have understood the negative aspects of these tricks and nowadays they are no longer part of my life. Everything we say and do is a constant construction of our own destiny so, after having tried to evolve, I am cautious with what I say and do. To build a building, the structure cannot be made of sand. In addition, our existence influences the lives of each of the 7 billion humans in the world. Let us influence in the right way.

Types of thoughts and attitudes that should NEVER be fed:

-Chauvinism
-Addiction
-Procrastination
Compare yourself to others
-Standardization of knowledge
-Cheating
-Fear
-Fault
-Competition (not healthy, for example, an employee who needs to hit a goal, etc ...)

The book is very interesting, for those who want to protect themselves from these triggers on youtube has a free audiobook. -
"Smarter than the Devil", Napoleon Hill

Wiser than the devil

The Boat

What I don't believe it doesn't exist. 2020

There is a book by Napoleon Hill called "Smarter than the Devil" that describes several tricks that prevent us from reaching our goals. I don't know many artists who have read this book but the wisdom contained in it is essential for anyone who wants to develop themselves. These are simple things that go unnoticed if we are not aware of ourselves.  On the other hand, the author Joe Dispenza clarifies several ways to rewind the brain itself and self-program and heal itself with testimonies from people who have been cured of depression, panic, and even cancer.  I emphasize that the practice of expressing oneself is one of the activities of extreme importance for self-development as it allows human beings to access sleeping areas of their subconscious that enable self-confidence, freedom and various sensations that increase the individual's vibrational frequency.

Lucid dreaming is the conscious perception of a certain state or condition while dreaming, resulting in a clear experience, usually appearing to have had direct control and capacity over our actions, and sometimes, the very unfolding of the content of the dream. Author Stephen LaBerge, author and researcher on the subject, describes the experience as "dreaming while we know we are dreaming".
LaBerge and his associates have called people who intentionally explore the possibilities of lucid dreams "oneironauts", which means "dream explorers".
Some claim that lucid dreams are like a "hyper-reality" and that all elements of the dream reality are amplified.

Thoughts are the launguage of the brain

Chasing Mystical

Shamanism is an ancient collection of traditions based on the act of voluntarily accessing and connecting to spirit realms, for wisdom and healing. They teach that all things are interconnected and alive, including the Earth, the stars and the wind. It is also the shaman’s role to demonstrate and maintain the harmonious balance of humankind, nature, and spirit. Within shamanism, there are no dogmas, no sacred text, and no founder or leader. Shamanism comes with great responsibility. They possess the ability to transform what they have learned and experienced into a concrete change in the physical world.
A person can enter into the field of shamanism, only when they have obtained these special shamanic abilities:
* The ability to voluntarily enter altered states of consciousness and maintain full control while maneuvering in and out of those various states.
* The ability to be a mediator between worlds. They are able to articulate the needs and wisdom of the spirit world to the physical world and vice versa.
* The ability to create and maintain a balance of humankind, nature, and the spirit realm.
Shamans enter these altered states of consciousness in order to communicate and connect with helping spirits to retrieve information. The information attained is generally brought back for healing purposes.
In these higher states, separateness dissolves, and so does the need for verbal communication. The shaman and the spirit are of the same so the communication between the two can occur simply as a knowing.
Below are some positive shamanistic qualities to look out for:
* Shamans are humble
* They are trustworthy.
* They do not push personal boundaries.
* Shamans let you come to them.
* They accept you as you are, without even the slightest hint of judgment.
* They possess a playful, peaceful demeanor.
* Shamans are of pure spirit.

A person's mind is as infinite as the universe. A small mind will bring to that person the opportunities that the size of that mind makes possible. An infinite mind brings that correspondent to that person. We are our own barriers and we are also our wings. We have free will and the divine spark of creation. By dissolving paradigms and patterns the mind expands and then the possibilities expand. The only ones responsible for our happiness are ourselves. Applied faith. Meditation. Unconditional love.

Gaia, in Greek mythology, is the mother - earth, as a primordial and latent element of immense generating potential. Using this Goddess as a reference, researcher James Lovelock developed in 1960 the Hypothesis of Gaia, a hypothesis of deep ecology that proposes that the biosphere and the physical components of the earth (atmosphere, cryosphere, hydrosphere, and lithosphere) are closely integrated in order to form a complex interacting system that keeps climatic and geochemical conditions in homeostasis, a condition that an organism needs to perform its functions normally.
The general idea is close to the theological and philosophical conceptions that have existed for centuries about the divine nature of creation and of higher consciousness and life immanent both in living beings and inanimate objects.
The hypothesis was developed by the scientist after his participation in a NASA team that analyzed the possibility of life on Mars. Its starting point was the study of the composition of the Earth's atmosphere, which would be very different for a planet located in a habitable zone of the Solar System since it contains in its composition a large amount of oxygen, nitrous oxide, and methane. According to James, this composition could only be explained by the interference of living organisms on the inorganic environment. Analyzing other evidence, it was postulated that, after appearing on a desert planet, life takes control of the inorganic environment and starts to modify it for its own benefit, so that life can perpetuate, forming in this process a complex and self-regulating system, Gaia. For him, the inorganic components of the atmosphere are closely integrated with the Earth's evolutionary process.
Lovelock developed for decades his research with microbiologist Lynn Margulis, who defended the theory of endosymbiosis, an evolutionary theory that emphasizes the positive effects resulting from interrelationships between individuals rather than the survival and reproduction of the fittest, proposed by Darwin. Briefly speaking, clarifying that the union is strength.

Still Going

Imagine if you think 67 thoughts during the day.
If every day you have the same 67 thoughts, what will happen? The days will remain the same. The same days of sadness will consecutively persist if you keep the same 67 thoughts. When we start to imagine everything different, the reality starts to be different too, but it is important to keep in the imagination a happy mental screen, so this way the past paradigm starts to dissolve. Basically, a person has to teach its brain the new pattern. Make a software update, simple, lol. In addition, our brain is responsible for the functioning of all the organs in our body. You can transform a completely into a new person, heal yourself automatically, including cancer (I have watched videos of people that witnessed this in their life), and reverse the aging process for example. Keep the new thoughts on that big screen of your cinema mind so that you install a new pattern of thought and then the vision you imagine will manifest. Fall in love with your future.

Richard Branson, the founder of the Virgin Records, left school at the age of 16 and how much did he contribute to the world by bringing to our knowledge magnificent talents?
Graduation is never useless, but it is not necessarily the answer to happiness either.
People are not happy because things are perfect. Things are perfect because the person is happy.
At school, college, etc., they don't teach us to empathize, for example. Have you stopped to think? And this is essential for living well.
But that is changing. Harvard University offers a course that students themselves defined as the "Touchy Feely course", which develops their emotional intelligence.
Living is simple and has a golden rule. Never do to others what you do not want to happen to you. And even if you make a mistake, don't spend your entire life condemning yourself. Get out of conditioning, reach awareness, learn from your mistakes, transform yourself deeply and start again. Self-forgiveness is essential for the complete restoration of a heart and the possibility of living in the present.
When you are conscious it is like constantly watching a movie of your own life, where you are the main character, then you start to realize all the triggers that exist to sabotage you and keep you away from your goals. Laziness, procrastination, addiction, just to name a few. When you are conscious, you immediately notice these ghosts arriving and then you turn the key on the spot, transform yourself and keep expanding and growing, going as far as your dreams reach, and when you get there, you will go even further. Don't spend any day of your life giving up on being happy. Every day we need to make time to dedicate ourselves. If you love, take care of yourself, practice an exercise, take care of your soul.

Making Explicit Things

Painting: Whool on Canvas.

Every time a paradigm is falling apart, we hear a lot of noise and see all sorts of atrocities. Wars, discouraging leaders, hunger, etc. The right to feel indignant is natural, but at the same time, it is important not to cultivate hate because it is a moment of transition, of creating a new paradigm that recognizes us as unity. Knowing that everything moves in cycles, it is possible to maintain the hope of the certainty of peace and everything that brings us indignation will be history. In the future, the children will ask: "grandma, did people really fought because of the color of their skins? Because of religion?" All of this will come undone and the pure conscience of the human being will be accessible to all, an awareness free of judgments, fears, and insecurity. A conscience that will be sure that Jesus, Buddha and all the teachers of wisdom never taught us about religion, they taught us about freedom.

The Law of Gender has very little to do with biological sex. Is the state of co-existence between Masculine and Feminine aspects of the human mind. Our left brain hemisphere largely facilitates the Masculine aspect of the mind, or Intellect (logic, analytical, and linear thought processes), while the right brain hemisphere facilitates the Feminine aspect, or Intuition (creative, compassionate, and holistic thought processes). We all contain a certain amount of both energies and must find a way to achieve a balance between both types if we wish to live authentically and happily. Think about the role each type of energy appears to play in your life, and whether there is an excess or a deficit of either.

Also called the Law of Perpetual Motion, this law is focused on movement. It refers to the fact that all things come in cycles.
It can be seen in nature, the seasons, the aging process, etc. It equally applies to a person's life stages, and reflecting on this helps you to gain perspective. Today's season may be good, but nothing is permanent so enjoy it while it lasts. Alternatively, perhaps, you are in a negative part of the cycle right now, but it may be the very thing that prepares you for a prosperous change in cycles next month.

You receive what you put out. The idea of compensation can come in many forms.
Essentially, you reap what you sow. This reminds you to be careful about how you treat others and the planet.

Everything around us is in constant flux. You can't see all of these changes because many of them exist at the celular or atomic level, but they carry on regardless.

The reason that it's so important to be aware of this is that it helps us see how we can trigger positive change. Specifically, keep in mind that high vibrations can trigger improvements in low vibrations. For example, if you are vibrating at a low vibration, exposing yourself to a high frequency will naturally trigger energy transmutation in you.

This artwork was inspired by the Yoruba religion and their Orishas, the forces of Nature that permeate the entire world. Humans name everything in order to categorize but as for some religions they can be understood as angels, monks, etc. I believe we are guided by one omnipotent force, that loves us all, but as we are from different cultures we name it differently. Culture is very important, and it is amazing to experience the perspectives of people from all over the world, but it is also very important that we love each other, respect each other always. Differences in culture should never segregate, but unity us to enhance the beauty of being different yet part of one whole organism that is called being human.

I painted this artwork in December 2019. I was praying to God for his guidance and support, and he answered my prayers and heaven help manifested in front of my eyes, in ways only I could understand. I am a very blessed and lucky person and this painting was a way to express all these situations I went through in a poetic way. This painting is the material register of the angels that were sent to help me.
I can't help but let it out my deepest and raw feelings.
The help I needed came to me. I hope this canvas can bring inspiration and a sense of unity to the viewer. We are one and we are very powerful and yes we have great hearts and we can really make this world a better place on many levels.

The Pleiades is an open star cluster containing middle-aged, hot B-type stars located in the constellation of Taurus. It is among the star clusters nearest Earth and is the cluster most obvious to the naked eye in the night sky.

The cluster is dominated by hot blue and luminous stars that have formed within the last 100 million years.

The Pleiades are a prominent sight in winter in the Northern Hemisphere and are easily visible out to mid-Southern latitudes. They have been known since antiquity to cultures all around the world, including the Celts, Hawaiians (who call them Makaliʻi), Māori (who call them Matariki), Aboriginal Australians (from several traditions), the Persians, the Arabs (who called them Thurayya), the Chinese (who called them 昴 mǎo), the Quechua, the Japanese, the Maya, the Aztec, the Sioux, the Kiowa, and the Cherokee. In Hinduism, the Pleiades are known as Krittika and are associated with the war-god Kartikeya. They are also mentioned three times in the Bible.

In Greek Mythology, The Pleiades, companions of Artemis, were the seven daughters of the titan Atlas and the sea-nymph Pleione born on Mount Cyllene: Maia, Electra, Taygete, Celaeno, Alcyone, Sterope, and Merope. They all had children by gods (except Merope, who married Sisyphus). They were the sisters of Calypso, Hyas, the Hyades, and the Hesperides. The Pleiades were nymphs in the train of Artemis, and together with the seven Hyades were called the Atlantides, Dodonides, or Nysiades, nursemaids, and teachers to the infant Dionysus.

I painted this artwork in November 2019. I used diverse mediums like acrylics, aluminum foil, glitter, oil pastel, and charcoal. It is finished with a matte varnish and all mediums are evenly applied to the canvas.

I am often inspired by music and one of my favorite artists of all time is David Bowie, his music really pushed me to follow my dreams. I watched the Labirynth recently and got inspired to create this artwork.

I hope this piece makes somebody just as happy as I was to create it
