Being a warrior does not mean being a savage, or someone willing to fight, fight, confrontation or combat .
Being a warrior means something else. It means being one and many things at once.
And all of them beautiful.
What is a warrior? Are you a warrior a warrior? Who is a warrior?
A warrior is a person who faces his fears and fears in order to overcome and transcend them, and thus, on the road, reach an impeccable state of being.
He is a person who fights ignorance and the unease caused by ignorance. A person who wants to know, who struggles to know and who does not stop because of the lack of answers or the answers offered by those who have no answers.
He is a person who takes his life seriously and lives it consciously. At every step, at every moment, here and now.
A person who is interested in knowing who he is, why he is here and where he is going. What is your goal, your meaning, your purpose, your purpose, your reason for being.
That he tries to print a total meaning to everything he does, however insignificant, and that is because he knows that, insignificant or not, everything is there for something, it has its meaning, its right to be, to be, to exist. And he wants it to be known.
And so, given the dilemma of showing an exquisite respect or an exquisite contempt for everything, the warrior chooses love, and love leads him to respect and want to be intimate with everything that exists, with every being that inhabits his world.
And he takes advantage of every moment of his life because he knows that he has not come to sleep or sleep. Even when he sleeps, he knows that he does not sleep, but lives in another dimension, in another place, in another form, and acts and learns and continues to aspire to be free in everything he does. That is why, when he wakes up in the morning and remembers that he has dreamed that he was an ostrich, he asks himself: is it me that has dreamed that it was an ostrich or am I an ostrich dreaming that it is me ?
A warrior does not complain, does not blame, does not protest, respects all forms of life, loves everything there is because he knows that everything there is is nothing more than a manifestation of his own being. That what he is is and that he is what there is, and that there is no difference between him and others, between him and everything around him, between him and everything that exists. A warrior knows that to live is to embrace every moment, every thing in every moment.
And he does not think, but he feels and acts, because he knows that thinking is an entertainment of the mind in his eagerness not to get anywhere. A warrior acts and knows that he acts and knows why he acts, because every moment is useful and everything is useful. And everything has its meaning and exists for something.
A warrior knowing that living is the most wonderful adventure he can know . And that learning, overcoming and evolving is the greatest task, the most sacred task, its supreme purpose.
And he takes advantage of every moment because he knows that one day he will leave, even if his march is only a mirage, a way to name his trip from this plane to others inaccessible for now, to other planes in which life continues under other forms of be.
And so, he knows that life is infinite, that he is infinite and that he cannot die.
