The price of hate and pardon - part 1
Paulo Coelho
In my notes for the year 1989 I come across some sentences jotted down from a conversation I had with J, whom I call my “master.” At that time we were talking about an unknown mystic called Kenan Rifai, about whom little has been written.
“Kenan Rifai says that when people praise us we should watch how we behave,” says J, “because that means that we hide our faults very well. Finally we end up believing that we are better than we think and then the next step is to let ourselves be dom

Today’s Question by the reader : Benedict
What is fear?
Contrary to what we believe, fear does not arise because we feel utterly alone. If we were totally alone there wouldn’t be anything to fear.
Actually fear comes from the fact that we imagine there are forces ready to attack us, things that escape from our power to understand.
Our fear arises from what we can’t grasp. What we don’t understand is actually what feels us with dread.
The moment we realize that things that go beyond our knowledge are not harmful, then the object of fear di

In search of my island - Part 3
Paulo Coelho
[...:]
When I wrote The Zahir, the main character says exactly the same thing: writing is getting lost at sea. It’s discovering your own untold story and trying to share it with others. It’s realising, when you show it to people you have never seen, what is in your own soul. In the book, a famous writer on spiritual matters, who believes he has everything, loses the thing that is most precious to him: love. I have always wondered what would happen to a man if he had no one to dream abo

Quote of the Day
Paulo Coelho
Never let yourself be paralysed by doubt. Always make whatever decisions you need to make, even if you’re not sure that your decision is the right one.

Today’s Question by the reader : Carolyne
Just having finished reading Brida, I find myself touched and compelled to ask you this question. I believe I have been blessed and am living a life driven by the Tradition of the Sun, but what is the best way for me to rekindle the flame and its power in time of doubt and weakness?
I am at a transformative time in my life, therefore I may be experiencing the Tradition of the Moon, and feel the world’s energies channeling through me, which are leaving me physically weak and in need of guidance.
