Red pill, blue pill, white pill, whatever pill – you don't need them!

Disclaimer: I am not a doctor. I have no formal medical education or qualification. What I write, the suggestions I give, are based on my own understanding and knowledge of consciousness and they are absolutely not a medical advice. You should exercise your own discretion and take responsibility for your own physical and mental health, just as you take responsibility (hopefully) in other areas of your life like your cryptos trading/hodling.

There is an epidemic spreading in the world. It has been dormant for many years but in the past decade has come to the fore. You will not hear about it on your media channels; on the contrary, the news and the marketing messages actually deliver the epidemic as the cure.

I am talking about medicines, official drugs. Painkillers, anti-depression pills, natural or synthesized substances that you, we, are urged to consume in order to:
• feel better
• be healthy
• be happy
• be relaxed
• be good citizens
• be more normal.

These pills do have a merit, for sure. They bring a remedy that you definitely can feel.

So what's the problem you ask? Several actually. The remedy is momentary. The pain is gone for several hours/days, and then, when it returns, you need to take a second pill. And a third, fourth, tenth, and then you are addicted. Now, there is nothing wrong in the need itself. After all, we need water, air and the company of others to survive. The problem lies in the hidden side effects. Painkillers and any artificial substances have a strong effect on the wiring in your mind and when taken for long periods of time (on average more than 2 weeks), they begin to cloud the awareness. In a way, you are unwillingly being masked, covered, and the natural connection with your source of existence is becoming vague, it is thinning and fading.

The outcomes are always the same – you become less vivid, more lethargic, lose the zest for life, or what I call – become harmless zombies. And why? Because our human existence derives its energy from framework II, that is the underlying realm of consciousness. This realm is revealed to us each night, in our dreams and hence one of the harsh consequences of the consumptions of such pills is the fading of our dreams recollection. The quality of our sleep is damaged, harmed and we remain in the shallow realms of the dream world.

So, what to do instead? Avoid painkillers at all cost?

No. sometimes we have pains so severe that we need help. Sometimes we go through a medical procedure and it's imperative to use painkillers. But do it with awareness. Meaning, use it for a short period of time and then stop. If you already use painkillers and such, and you want to quit, do it gradually. Pay attention to your body and how it reacts. The physical body has a tremendous capability to heal itself. When it goes out of balance our modern medicine – and thanks for that – helps to rebalance it. The pills and substances (natural as well) that we use should be a reminder to the body of what it is capable of, nothing more.

Unfortunately, the pharmaceutical industry has forgotten its mission to help humans, and rather try to substitute what each and everyone already has – the inner ability to heal.

And so, like in every aspect of our individualist life, here as well we are called to take responsibility. This time, for what we put into our bodies, for the way we maintain health, for the awarness of who we choose to be.

Masters or servants?

EDIT:

Following some off-line questions, I want to clarify what do I mean by "pills cloud the awareness":

I will list only four influences, among many, that might happen to you in the long run -

Your creative abilities will decrease. You will find less and less inspiring moments during your day. That will lead to -
Even greater depression because you will not find meaning for your days. Your soul-self wants to express itself and when you block it, it loses interest in life;
Health issues – once your connection to the source that sustains your physical body is mitigated, your body's condition will deteriorate;
Alzheimer – as your consciousness will gradually back off from this reality, you will spend more and more times in other realms, to compensate for the lack of expression here.
