Η Ψυχουλα και ο Ηλιος

Εαν το κειμενο εχασε κατι στην μεταφραση τοτε συγγνωμη.





Μια φορα και ενα καιρο υπηρχε μια ψυχουλα που ηξερε οτι ηταν το Φως.



"Ειμαι το φως, εχω και'γω φως’, επειδη ομως ηταν καινουρια ψυχη δεν ειχε την εμπειρια να δει οτι οντως ηταν το Φως.



Οσο και εαν το ελεγε οσο και αν χοροπηδουσε πανω κατω δεν το πιστευε μεσα της...γιατι δεν το ειχε ζησει.



Επισης απο εκει που προερχοταν η ψυχουλα δεν υπηρχε τιποτα αλλο εκτος απο Φως, καθε ψυχη ηταν μεγαλη και καθε ψυχη ηταν θαυμασια και καθε ψυχη ελαμπε με την Λαμπροτητα του Θεου...



Ετσι η ψυχουλα ηταν ως κερι στον Ηλιο. Στο μεγαλυτερο Φως του οποιου ηταν μερος δεν μπορουσε να δει ουτε να βιωσει το τι ειναι και ηταν...



Τοσο πολυ λαχταρουσε η ψυχουλα να δει το τι ηταν που μια μερα Ο Θεος γυρισε και της ειπε...



"Ξερεις μικρη μου τι πρεπει να κανεις για να δεις πραγματικα το τι εισαι;;;;"



"Αχου πες μου Θεουλη μου πες μου, θα κανω το παν, στ'αληθεια το λεω, τι, τι τι???"



"Να ξεχωρισεις τον εαυτον σου απο εμας και να επικαλεσεις το σκοταδι"



"Τι ειναι το σκοταδι Θεε μου??"



"Αυτο που δεν εισαι"



Και τοτε η ψυχουλα καταλαβε....



Εφυγε απο εκει που ηταν και επικαλεσε ολο το σκοταδι που μπορουσε να βρει...



Το σκοταδι ηρθε και επεσε σαν πεπλο απανω της....



Και αναμεσα σε τοσο σκοταδι η ψυχουλα δεν μπορεσε η ψυχουλα αλλο και φωναξε...



"Θεε μου, Θεε μου γιατι με παρατησες μεσα σε τοσο σκοταδι?? Δεν μπορω αλλο εδω μεσα, μου ειναι αβαστακτο!!!"



Και ο Θεος απαντησε...



"Ημουν μαζι σου ακομα και οταν το σκοταδι σε κυριευσε,



ακομα και τοτε δεν σε αφησα....Ημουν και ειμαι παντοτε πλαϊ σου να σου θυμιζω τι και ποια εισαι, ετοιμη, παντοτε ετοιμη να σε φωναξω πισω σπιτι μας"



"Ετσι γινε το φως μες στο σκοταδι και μη το αναθεματιζεις,



Και μην ξεχνας την ωρα που γυριζει ο τροχος το τι εισαι σε συγκριση με αυτο που δεν εισαι..."



"Να ξερεις παντοτε οτι κανεις στην ωρα της μεγαλης δοκιμασιας μπορει να γινει ο μεγαλυτερος θριαμβος σου"



"Γιατι η εμπειρια που δημιουργεις ειναι η δηλωση το τι εισαι και ποια θελεις να εισαι..."



Για ολους εμας που διαλεξαμε το σκοταδι για να θυμoμαστε το τι πραγματικα ειμαστε...

Beware of Peace Symptoms




Be on the lookout for symptoms of inner peace:

The hearts of a great many have already been exposed to inner peace and it is possible that people everywhere could come down with it in epidemic proportions.


This could pose a serious threat to what has, up to now, been a fairly stable condition of conflict in the world.

Some signs to look for:

* A tendency to think and act spontaneously rather than on fears based on past experiences.

* An unmistakeable ability to enjoy each moment.

* A loss of interest in judging other people.

* A loss of interest in interpreting the actions of others.

* A loss of interest in conflict.

* A loss of the ability to worry. (This is a very serious symptom.)

* Frequent, overwhelming episodes of appreciation.

* Contented feelings of connectedness with others and nature

* Frequent attacks of smiling.

* An increasing tendency to let things happen rather than make them happen.

* An increased susceptibility to the love offered by others as well as the uncontrollable urge to extend it.

Be Forewarned!!!
If you have all or even most of the above symptoms, please be advised that your condition may be too far advanced to turn back.

If you are exposed to anyone exhibiting several of these symptoms, remain exposed at your own risk.

This condition of inner peace is likely well into its infectious stage.

The Little Soul and the Sun











God said to the little soul,









"You may choose to be any Part of God you wish to be.


You are absolute divinity experiencing itself. What aspect of divinity do you now wish to experience as You?"





"You mean I have a choice",



asked the little soul.


God answered,



"Yes. You may choose to experience any aspect of divinity in, as and through you."


"Okay," said the little soul,


"then I choose forgiveness. I want to experience myself as that aspect of God called complete forgivness."


Well this created a little challenge, as you can imagine. There was no one to forgive. All God had created was perfection and love.


"No one to forgive?" asked the little soul, somewhat incredulously.


"No one," God repeated. "Look around you. Do you see any souls less than perfect, less wonderful than you?"




At this the little soul twirled around and was surprised to see himself surrounded by all the souls in heaven.


They had come from far and wide throughout the kingdom, because they heard that the little soul was having an extraordinary conversation with God.


"I see none less perfect than I!" the little soul exclaimed.

"Who, then, shall I have to forgive?"


Just then another soul stepped forward from the crowd.


"You may forgive me" said this friendly soul





"For what?" the little soul asked.


" I will come into your next physical lifetime and do something for you to forgive," replied the friendly soul.



"But what? What could you, a being of such perfect light do to make me wnat to forgive you?" the little soul wanted to know."Oh," smiled the friendly soul, "I'm sure we can think of something."




"But why would you want to do this?" The little soul could not figure out why a being of such perfection would want to slow down it's vibration so much that it could do something 'bad'.


"Simple," the friendly soul explained, "I would do it because I love you. You want to experience yourself as forgiving, don't you? Besides you've done the same for me."


"I have?" asked the little soul.


"Of course, don't you remember? We've been All Of it, you and I. We've been the Up and the Down of it, and the Left and the Right of it. We've been the Here and the There of it, and the Now and the Then of it. We've been the Big and the Small of it, the Male and the Female of it and the Good and the Bad of it. We've been the All of it."










"And we've done it by agreement, so that each of us might experience ourselves as the grandest part of God. For we have understood that...'In the absence of that which You Are Not, that which you Are, is Not'.

'In the absence of cold you cannot be warm, in the absence of sad you cannot be happy. Without a thing called evil, the experience you call good cannot exist'.


'If you choose to be a thing, something or someone opposite to that has to show up somewhere in your universe to make that possible.'


"The friendly soul then explained that those people are God's Special Angels and these conditions God's Gifts.



"I ask only one thing in return," the friendly soul declared.


"Anything, Anything," the little soul cried. He was excited now to know that he could experience every divine aspect of God. He understood now, The Plan.


"In the moment that I strike you and smite you," said the friendly soul, "in the moment that I do the worst to you that you could ever imagine - in that self same moment...remember Who I Really Am."


"Oh, I wont forget!" promised the little soul.



"I will see you in the perfection with which I hold you now, and I will remember Who You Are, always."

Native Wisdom



Ένας γέρος σοφός, ινδιάνος Cherokee μιλουσε με τον εγγονο τoυ







"Μια μαχη γινεται μεσα μου" ειπε το Αγορι.

"Ειναι μια φοβερη μαχη και ειναι μεταξυ δυο λυκων.







Ο ενας λυκος ειναι κακος και ασχημος:




Διακατεχεται απο θυμο, φθονο, πολεμο, πλεονεξια, αυτο - λυπηση, θλιψη, ενοχη,
δυσαρεσκεια, κατωτεροτητα, ψευτικη υπερηφανεια και ανωτεροτητα, εγωισμο και υπεροψια.

"Ο αλλος ο λυκος ειναι ομορφος και αγαθος:

Ειναι φιλικος, χαρουμενος, γεματος συναισθημα, ειρηνη, αγαπη, ελπιδα, ηρεμια, ταπεινοτητα, ευγενεια, καλογαθια, δικαιοσυνη, γενναιωδωρια, ειλικρινιεα, οικτο, ευγνωμοσυνη και διοραση."




"Αυτη η ιδια παλη που γινεται μεσα σου, γινεται μεσα σε καθε ανθρωπο επισης."

Tου απαντησε ο παππους.



Ο Εγγονος σταματησε και αρχισε να συλλογιζεται αυτο που ο παππους του ειχε πει. Κατοπιν φωναξε:


"Oyee! παππου, ποιος λυκος θα κερδισει?"





Ο γερος Cherokee του απαντα:



"Ο λυκος που τρεφεις."





All of us get lost in the darkness, dreamers learn to steer by the stars. - Rush, The Pass
