CONFUSION

November 7

SUMMARY

Matías explores the paradox of living in an era saturated with information, where unlimited access to data does not guarantee clarity or understanding. He contrasts past times when information was scarce but life was simpler and more comprehensible, with the present where the abundance of data has created confusion and disorientation. Education, which once shaped obedient workers, has failed to adapt to the information age, leaving humanity ill-equipped to filter and process the constant stream of information. Matías suggests that the solution lies in a more conscious and reflective approach, urging people to seek balance and clarity within themselves rather than blindly relying on external sources of information.

“…confusion is your ally on the path of awakening.”

EXERCISES

1. Sit comfortably and close your eyes. Reflect on the phrase “I only know that I know nothing.” Meditate on uncertainty and doubt, accepting them as part of the human experience. Visualize each doubt or question as a cloud in the sky, observing them without the need to find immediate answers. Feel how you can find peace in this space of not knowing and how it allows you to be open to exploration and learning.

2. Sit comfortably and close your eyes. Visualize a balloon in your hands. This balloon represents your beliefs and the information you have accumulated. See how the balloon fills with air and becomes larger as you add more thoughts and beliefs to it. When you are ready, release the balloon and watch it float away into the air. Feel how, by letting it go, you become lighter and at peace.
