THE CAPACITY FOR LOVE

Gilgit Baltistan, Pakistan

The capacity for love gives depth to human relationships, brings people closer physically and emotionally, and makes them think expansively about themselves and about others.

CERTAIN MOMENTS REPEAT THEMSELVES

A warrior of light knows that certain moments repeat themselves.

He often finds himself faced by the same problems and situations, and seeing these difficult situations return, he grows depressed, thinking that he is incapable of making any progress in life.

‘I’ve been through all this before,’ he says to his heart.

‘Yes, you have been through all this before,’ replies his heart. ‘But you have never been beyond it.’

Then the warrior realises that these repeated experiences have b...

HE KNOWS HOW TO DISTRACT HIS OPPONENT

A warrior of light never resorts to trickery, but he knows how to distract his opponent.

However anxious he is, he uses every strategy at his disposal to gain his objective. When he sees that his strength is almost gone, he makes his enemy think that he is simply biding his time. When he needs to attack the right flank, he moves his troops to the left. If he intends beginning the battle at one, he pretends that he is tired and prepares for sleep.

His friends say: ‘Look, he’s lost all e...

MAKE USE OF YOUR OPPONENT’S ENERGY

RIVER OF PASSIONS

All the world’s roads lead to the heart of the warrior; he plunges unhesitatingly into the river of passions always flowing through his life.

The warrior knows that he is free to choose his desires, and he makes these decisions with courage, detachment and – sometimes – with just a touch of madness.

He embraced his passions and enjoys them intensely. He knows that there is no need to renounce the pleasures of conquest; they are part of life and bring joy to all those who participate in them.

But he...

MUCH TO BE GRATEFUL FOR

A warrior of light knows that he had much to be grateful for.

He was helped in his struggle by the angels; celestial forces placed each thing in its place, this allowing him to give of his best.

His companions say: ‘He’s so lucky!’ And the warrior does sometimes achieve things far beyond his capabilities.

That is why, at sunset, he kneels and gives thanks for the Protective Cloak surrounding him.

His gratitude, however, is not limited to the spiritual world; he never forgets his frie...

He’s alive

I found him silent almost all the time but he is alive as he enjoys listening to music from time to time.

DREAMS ARE FRAGILE

Dreams are fragile. If you don’t hold them fast, they fall down and spread in to broken pieces.
Keep your grip on your dreams tight enough until they become reality.

Your thoughts have colors and you dye your soul with the colors of your thoughts.
Try not to be messy!
