After publishing my book “ Analyze. Define. Redefine.” …. he
called me and talked for hours about his life.
We were laughing asking … “How could you be defined?! ….
as a jerk that is creating illusions to so, so many ladies … or
an angel that makes them laugh … reminding them about something that they forget about … the happiness … “ Well … the perspectives could be so … contradictory …
I see Bill … greater as Casanova … but maybe the ones that believe in the concepts of morality … will totally dislike him. So … how should we define Bill?!
Why should we judge someone that is inducing beautiful vibes … making so many ladies forget about … unhappiness?! It’s all probably about the duality of life … and each side of it we see.
Or maybe … even the happiness itself it’s … illusory.

Smile … just smile … in
front of whatever happens
I am looking at the actual crisis of energy, of food … of everything.
But i just smile…
I remember about the times when i was a kid and lived for more than 11 years in communism … and i smile reading that we need to stop the light, to stay at 16-17 celsius degrees … maybe to eat less etc etc.
I actually remember that i really stayed at 16-17 degrees, i was making my homework for school at the light of the candle … cause the authorities were stopping the electricity to save energy … but also that we were eating mainly potatoes with cheese.
And i actually remember that we only had just one type of chocolate… and now in any supermarket we find one million types of candies.
Yes … the truth is that we consume a lot, but still … i see the abundance everywhere.
Comparing with those times … it all looks like a joke.
Maybe … a karmic one.
Most probably we need to stop wasting so much … just to have that feeling of abundance.
There are one million theories of conspiracy … but … i don’t

Dealing with people
with mental problems .. an extremely annoying challenge
I know many nice people being in this position. … and not finding a way out from those stories.
They would pay all they money … and in fact absolutely any price asked … but just to not be forced to deal with those persons.
I personally had this problem … and not only one time.
I remember how annoyed i’ve been.
And also sad, frustrated … not finding any way of getting rid of those persons.
It was funny reading in the motivational and spiritual books that all we see in this world .. it’s a mirror … but … even if i agree the theory … i could not accept it while analyzing my own life.
I agree and disagree in the same time with all those theories. And i loved to talk about them … but i had this weird idea that all could be applied to anyone from this Universe, but not to me … which you probably realize it’s totally ridiculous. But …
Time was passing.
I succeeded to get rid of one person, of another … and another one.

IT'S ALL AN ILLUSION … A KARMIC ONE
But the story was repeated on and on and on.
In fact it was the same story … me … and a new person that appeared in my life from no where.
I even had few episodes when some people came to me … really convinced that they want to … kill me.
But my intuition said all the time that … it’s all an illusion.
A very annoying one … but an illusion.
One day … while meditating … i suddenly remembered that the karmic factors of life were always repeated on and on and on.
It was so damn easy to see those situations, but also the solutions at other people from the scene of my life … but for me …
But for my case … i’ve been just annoyed and nothing more. Somehow this is the reason why i decided to name the book
“It’s all an illusion … a karmic one” … cause i started to realize that even if it’s indeed an illusion … it was all a karmic issue.
I had … not to get rid of these people … but to connect and heal this interaction i had with them.
To realize that all what i see it’s actually a reflection of a hidden weird part of myself.
To stop … just agreeing with all those theories … but understand i need to implement those concepts on the timeline of the real life.
Ask myself what if this is indeed just a reflection?! Something i am hiding by a long, long time … but it came to the surface… in this weird representation of seeing people

IT'S ALL AN ILLUSION … A KARMIC ONE
having mental problems on and on and on?!
And also dared to ask myself … what if the one having mental problems in this equation is actually me?!
What if i actually need to accept and embrace that crazy side of myself … and then start to heal it?! Ok … but how?!
Theory was saying that i need to treat with infinite love and understating … all those people that annoyed me so much … but i hated them … and actually hated them a lot. So … first step … was to stop hating, right?!
Embrace them?!
Accept them?!
Treat them with love?!
… with respect?!
Hmm … i had no intention of doing that.
Really …
Why the hell should i do it?!
Just why?!
The karmic story had been repeated on and on and on … and the moment when i had the illusion that i got rid of that person with mental problem … another one appeared.
It was ridiculous that i knew what i had to do .. but could not do it … pretending i was not seeing the real path to follow. And the Universe kept repeating me that … Until?!
Well … until i will understand that the same way i need to respect the law of gravity … even if i like it or not … the same way i need to realize the concept of loving and embracing

All the persons … with or without mental problems … cause they were actually just a reflection of the inner self.

IT'S ALL AN ILLUSION … A KARMIC ONE
Suffering of the pricess’s sindrome … she always fucked everything …
Personal development is … great … but most probably we understand it wrong.
I see the theory of affirmations for example …. and i smile …
I know it’s a great theory … but same as most probably … driving a Lamborghini is not for everyone … the same … this theory is not really for all the people we see around us. Recently … at the coffee shop where i usually drink my coffee and write …i heard my friends complaining on and on and on
about the fact that they date with some girls that don’t really look like in the photos they get from them … before the date.
And it looks so illusory …
They go dating for the first time … believing in fact that they will meet a princess … as in the end to realize that it’s not even an usual girl.
Using face apps for making them look so different than in reality … creating the illusion of being a princess …. and most of them really believing that … everything is fucked up from the early beginning.
But still … their perception is different.
One guy even said few days ago that he wanted to call to the police because of the fact that he met a lady that really
Adrian Gabriel Dumitru
25
IT'S ALL AN ILLUSION … A KARMIC ONE
looked in photos with the woman from his dreams … but in reality she was looking like … Shrek.
Having 20 kilos more … a face totally different than in photos
she … was most probably a person that was just pretending … practicing the techniques of affirmations … but
Well … until she met with my friend … that being so socked … politely asked … “Why the hell you pretend to be who you are not?!”
But the lady was … socked too … replying … “Why the hell you are saying that?! What’s wrong with you?!” Believing she was a princess … she was indeed pretending she was looking like a princess.
I am smiling … hearing all whose stories from my friends from my coffee shop … trying to see the message behind the message.
For them indeed … this illusion of dating with ladies that looked in photos like Princess Di and in reality like … Shrek … was something karmic.
What i call … a karmic illusion that was repeating on and on and on.
Of course they also met normal ladies … but never a …. princess.
And my philosophical question is … who’s responsible for that??
…. personal growth?! … the quotes from social media?! … the theory of affirmations that teach us to believe we are so, so special human beings?! … or who?!
Adrian Gabriel Dumitru
26
IT'S ALL AN ILLUSION … A KARMIC ONE
Well …. I do believe it’s all a misunderstanding…
A disease called … princess’s syndrome appeared between us
and is just fucking everything. We should probably stop pretending.
Both … men and women … cause i am sure that if this essay would be written by a woman it would be about the price’s syndrome.
And i ask myself … why we simple don’t present ourselves as
souls?!
Instead of saying … “i’m a princess … or a prince”… could say
“I am a soul …. and i believe … i am a beautiful one.” Is it so difficult?!
But coming back to my friends from the coffee shop …. I ask … for who is the karmic message?!
For those ladies?! Or for them?!
Why is keep repeating … on and on and on?!
And why those ladies don’t understand that this illusory habit of practicing the princess’s syndrome is not … something good … and it’s even worst … cause is just fucking everything.
So … could we conclude anything?!
Well … most certainly … we see the elements of the illusion of life on both sides … for men and also for women … we understand something is wrong … but we still … continue acting in a silly way.
Maybe it’s time to stop pretending we are princes or

Behind anything happens …
there is always a message … but maybe an abstract one
Every time something bad happened … i became sad and … annoyed.
Totally irritated …. and can’t find the words to define my silly
behavior … when i was disliking the present moment.
I knew that theory said that everything i see in life is actually a reflection of my soul … and whatever is wrong … is just an abstract message sent by the Universe … but … Well … theory is theory … practice is practice …
And i could talk for hours about the laws of Universe, but when it came to my private life … i had a total different perspective … and i was totally ignoring …. all those important things i knew about.
Most probably even a child could laugh of me seeing how silly i was acting.
Well … recently … in the same time … i started to have problems with the battery at all my cars. … all 3 .. which i considered weird.
At 2 of them the alternator was not charging the battery and it all happened almost in the same time.
Adrian Gabriel Dumitru
29
IT'S ALL AN ILLUSION … A KARMIC ONE
So … i asked myself … why the hell is this happening?!
Why in the same time?!
Was it a message from the Universe?!
Damn it … cause i totally disliked it.
It all costed a lot to fix them … so knowing a little bit about those abstract messages … i started to realized that … low battery meant that i was without so much energy … which was true and the fact that the alternator was not charging the battery … was the fact that i was doing things that were not empowering me …. not giving me the needed energy.
Yes … quite a simple message … but i somehow realized it too late … in the moment i had to pay the repairs of my car at the mechanic.
The Universe talk to me on my language … cause i was paying lots of attention to anything related with the money … so … what the hell was not clear?!
Hmm ….
Well … imagine as someone that has a disease would think as that, or someone that is in the position of seeing the marriage broken by some exterior factors … or … someone that break his leg etc etc.
What if we search the message behind the message in all what we dislike it happens?!
What if instead of defining it as something bad … we would define it as something karmic … which is in fact a powerful message from the Universe …. and a life lesson.

Influencing and being influenced … a karmic act?!
I look every week at the statistics of my downloaded books and i smile seeing that “Influencing and being influenced” … is doing very well.
I smile all the time cause i just can’t remember what the hell i wrote there.
If someone would ask me to talk about it …. I don’t know if i
would be able to describe the book with the proper words. But … all what i know today … and strongly feel is that influencing and being influenced is … somehow … karmic. I use the term …. Karmic … cause in the end it’s all related with … an induced change.
And living in the universe of duality … it all becomes a … a positive … or negative change. And it’s even more complicated …
Living in a world … totally interconnected … it all becomes … a chain reaction.
The world continues its paths …. and the so large spectrum
of influences … takes us … in all the directions … making us look like beings without no direction at all.
Influencing and being influenced …. make us understand the
life itself …. and all its facts.

influence has to come from the real self … the one that is hided deep … deep inside us.
