Mysteries of the Heart. Sadness and Happiness.

These two sisters would quarrel all the time and the king of the village called them to decide which was the best.
In order to avoid preferences he made them wear long robes with their heads covered and in this way nobody could see them but only listen to their discussion.

And the king said: ” The winner will be considered as great mentor and she will govern all this place.”
When the wise men heard those words they decided between themselves to choose the most alike to them so their town could not reclaim them anything.

So, they were guided to a large room and were told: ” You’ll have to answer our questions, by which, you will be evaluated and qualified.”

Then, they followed the rules and asked one of them: ” Tell us about you.” And she said: ” If you ever would get depressed, I would never abandon you. I would be by your side night and day. If you ever had difficulties and anguish, I assure you that I will be there for you.”

And they asked the same question to the other sister, who answered: ” If all that would happen, I would flee, I could not stand it.”
They were most surprised by that answer and tried to dwell on the topic, by asking one of them: ” What would you do if somebody very close to you in the town, would die?” She answered right away: ” I would be in front of the funeral procession helping with my own hands in the burial. As you all, I would go day by day to the grave of this person. Even more, whether this person had my affection or not, I would help with all my heart.”

They were moved by the answer and they asked the other sister who said: ” I could not visit the cemetery, I could never join you and even if you asked me to go only once, I could not do it.”
The wise men were most uncomfortable for this answer. They did not want to ask more questions but three questions were a must and they asked one of the sisters: ” How do you get along with people? ” And she said: ” I deeply go into their hearts and then, I take care of their minds, without leaving anything unattended. I am most interested since the first moment and once, I know them, no matter what happens, I am committed to always accompany them.”

The wise men were most astonished with that answer and commented: ” How charming, what a nice expression!”
Then, they asked the other sister who said: ” I am fleeting and passing, it may be that I will be with you part of the day but you will not find me easily. If I enter your door, I will leave by your window and before night fall you would have forgotten me.”

On listening to these words, the king, who had been present, said: ” This is enough!” And the wise men also agreed. Then, they chose one and they dismissed the other sister. They even told her: ” Because of your answers, it is much better, that you leave this town, we ask you to go and never come back. There is no place for you here. It is clear that your sister will be made mentor and she will rule the house of the king and all the townspeople. Her orders will be law forever.”

The story goes that nothing was left of that town, only this story. If you ever pass by that place, you will see desert, wasteland and dust. Not even the filthiest animals and despicable beings enter that place.
I then asked who were those sisters. And they told me that those sisters were “Sadness” and ” Happiness”

As you already have realized, when they were all covered with robes and hoods they looked alike. Sadness is possessive, absorbing and a liar, that is the reason that she won since she gave the impression of perfect attention. While the other sister, is like a shooting star since happiness is a passing state. But a terrible thing happened as soon as Sadness started to rule, the king lost his family, horrible plagues came, the harvests were lost. Sadness took over their hearts and finally all was lost.”
Nothing was known about Happiness since she was forbidden from coming into the city and that is why the kingdom was lost.

Life is filled with mysteries! Be very careful and do not be confused. Read this story many times and as you read again, you will understand more.

 

How to Overcome Suffering

When the suffering is deep and profound, it confuses and harm, leaving us hopeless. Yes, it might seem that life has no sense.

There are sufferings so great and intense that happiness seems dead and even madness would be better because the suffering opens gaps in the soul because the heart bleeds, anguish takes over the mind; and the will cannot take it any longer. It is the denial of denials and self denial.

Then, at this point, the miracle happens and God illuminates with His Mercy and in spite of everything it springs forth victorious in the mystery of Faith.

A Moment of Life and Meditation

I would like to share with you a moment of life and meditation: It is the painting, the color, that has made the journey from the world of dreams and intuition to participate and become part of you and part of me.
I would like to tell you that Art is more than the word, it is a commitment, it is a splendor that takes the form of light and color in order to recreate a better world for you, for me, for everybody. Art brings us happiness.

The Mystery. The All and the Nothing. For Reflection.

I contemplated the sky and saw a great expansion, I looked at the horizon and could not find its end; I went near the sea, threw a stone, it sank and I did not know how far down it went. I went up a mountain and saw others that were higher. I looked down and the height made me tremble. I have seen so many distances and infinities that moved me. How big is the all! How vast is the universe, how deep and complex!

 But when I look inside, meaning, in the inner silence, that universe that seemed so big, in a mysterious way, becomes small.
There is something bigger than what is big, deeper than what is deep; and it is no outside, but inside of each one of us, I think that it is the beginning of something that cannot be expressed with words, that goes beyond words, that is able to unite the all and the nothing. And it is like a wonderful brightness. Then, I realize that it is not inside, that it is not outside but that it is everywhere.

The Search for Truth. A Short Story.

A selected group of people left on a journey searching for Truth. Some traveled by ship, got lost and were never found. Others, went to the highest mountains with steep summits and were never found. Others, traveled by paths and paths, got lost, and were never found either. But others stayed to reflect, they got lost in their reflection, and their minds were never found. Only one, who recogned that all the others had failed, understood that Truth was neither in a far away place nor near him because every place, finally is a place. And he said: ” If it is not here, if it is not there. Where is Truth? It seems to hide, to conceal.”

He finally got older and his time to die arrived. And in his deathbed, close to leave, a very small child approached him and said: ” Why do you have to leave? “

And he learned the first truth: Nothing is permanent. If you search for Truth in the impermanent, you will not find it.

He stared at the child and said: ” Don’t do what I did. Don’t look for Truth because you will get lost and will only find the impermanent.”

The child did not understand and said: ” Truth, what is Truth. I don’t know.”
Then, the old man understood the Second Truth: There is a profound mystery that covers Truth. It is a vast infinite cloak that is present in everything that exists, in the time, in the temporary. All may seem very real one day and the next day, it may not be. And this is a mystery and it was found that everything changes and that the secret of Truth is kept as mystery. What is the mystery? It is the search for Truth in what is transitory.
Then, what could he explain to that child about Truth, which he has searched for so much? He could not say anything because he did not know anything. Nevertheless, the child understood and said: ” Oh, I know what Truth is. It is what nobody can talk about, then I will listen to it in the silence.”

And that old man understood that what is relative is changing. And that the mystery is won in the silence. And when surprised by the silence, he found himself with the mind serene and everything was then Truth. Life is like a dream and what is permanent and important inhabits in the spiritual silence, in secret words, in the eternal spiritual vision.

Truth, which is immortal essence, is not born, does not ever die.
And that man saw the child and understood: ” Even though I may leave, one part of me will stay in you and another part of you will leave with me. Separated, united, that is the Truth. In essence, nothing comes and nothing goes. What is permanent always is.”
