LETTERS FROM A FRIEND V

Yes, it is a magnificent world, do you know why? Because this world is not the hell that people project through the media. This world is a magnificent order, a beautifully functioning system that operates without missing a single second, without failing to perform anything it must do; it is a place that gives life with love and respect to every single being that lives and exists upon it. It is a grand stage for a series of adventures to which we are connected only by breath, and which we perceive through observing, touching, hearing, tasting, and smelling. And every single being sharing this stage is connected to one another by a chain of energies that cannot be perceived through these five senses. To those who ask how this is possible, or who call it absurd: just look at how your touchscreen phones work. That alone is enough.

That is why some are insistently telling you to direct your attention to the trees, the crystal-clear waters, the seas, and to the dolphins and whales—for these two beings are high healers—and to the beauties, abundance, and prosperity brought by nature, so that these may be the things that multiply. Cleanse your fears; let them go. Erase from your essence the wretched and painful dreams you have placed in the black boxes you created, take them and cast them into the sea, for water is healing. Rid yourself of them; you have been carrying these burdens on your backs and in your hearts for years, multiplying them further with complaints and outbursts of anger. The end of this path is simply unplugging from this world—that is all. One day, we will all pull this plug, and we practice this very rehearsal every single night: we sleep and wake, we die and are resurrected. Yet, while you are alive, create a livable dream that gives life to both you and others.

Go to nature, plant trees, plant flowers, help animals, love them—love them. Instead of crushing and stifling children under your own egos, love them truly and unconditionally—love them. Love yourself; love your own infancy, your childhood, your madness, and your mistakes; love yourself, love yourself. Love this vessel in which you entered to experience this world, and take good care of it, for it operates as perfectly as the earth and the solar system. Love yourself, love yourself; love yourself as a whole, with both your soul and your body.

Please, now direct your attention to the light and to love. No matter what your current situation may be, place joy and cheerfulness at your focus. The source of life is joy and cheerfulness. Seat compassion at your center, feed on the light of love; you cannot be loved without loving, so love the weeds, the bugs, the mountains, and the hills. Become Mad with love, like Majnun.

You cannot feed on love from behind the walls you have built; yet, what you need most is to be loved. Only when you are naked and bare can you meet with other beings and build a livable world, an accessible universe. Therefore, let these walls melt and vanish in the light of love.

Love the world, embrace it, bind its wounds, do not withhold your healing, and create a livable world. First in your dreams, and then right before your eyes...

Collective energies are higher than individual energies; therefore, the energy of collective meditations is also high. Meditate, purify, cleanse—open the windows and let your heart breathe.

Remain with love; remain with absolute devotion to life and to all the expressions it brings.
