To be able to see the world for what it is, it is necessary to know eternity and to look at temporariness from a position that transcends it.
Above all love
A hidden inheritance
- of Francesco Arista and Antonella Molica
Argument
- → The cosmic illusion continually attacks you through all that of it to which you attach yourself, beginning with the body, yet this illusion, however great it may be, can do nothing to you.
- → Observe the continuity, constancy and truth of changeability, inconstancy and volubility.
- → Reflection, intelligence can and must see, recognize and overcome the nature of the cosmos, changing, continuously discontinuous, certainly uncertain, contradictory, tending to annihilate itself, and find in a sure and indissoluble way the immortal nature and its own unity with it.
- → The experience of the world tells man that everything is temporary and probable, it shows total and continuous changeability.
- → I can love you everywhere, but love is uncertain in bodies, in sensations, in what is temporary, it is certain in what is eternal.
- → Observe your brothers with my love, as eternal souls, at worst lost in the world, not as bodies, distinguish the eternal and the insubstantial.
- → The world, the body and the mind collaborate in producing the experience of mutability and dragging man into the unawareness of eternity.
- → If you don't face it, the illusion of the world and the body robs you of awareness of you and me, enslaves you and crushes you with pain.
- → Guilt and fragility belong to the world and the body, they do not belong to the divine nature with which you were created.
