"Since we
will live
forever, we
must put
ourselves
above..." I
read this
from someone
else in an
internet
interview.
We have to
put
ourselves
above
setbacks,
temporary
frustrations,
annoyances
and others’
opinions.
However,
could we
make such an
attempt in
the
tumultuous
course of
everyday
life? Are we
able to
practice
this wise
attitude of
maintaining
a “view from
above”?
After all,
according to
the
understanding
of a huge
number of
people, this
is only a
guess - of
an at most
empirical
statement.
But,
necessarily,
the greater
realities of
life will
prove, for
each one
that it is
not the
affirmative
of a
simplistic
reductionism.
It is a
matter of
time. And
each in its
own moment,
all will be
confronted
with
evidence,
which will
counteract
the still
reluctant
tendency to
consider as fait
accompli only
what is
required by
the
scientific
postulates
bordering on
a material
reality -
thereby
neglecting,
in an
unforeseen
way, the
extradimensional
experiences;
the
countless
individual
experiences
reported
throughout
the world in
this
territory,
though
mistakenly
considered
only as
fruits of
subjectivity.
No. Science,
little by
little, and
even this,
already
approaches
the up to
now
demonstrated
and proven
by the
so-called
“empirical
optics”.
Increasingly,
there is
talk of
multidimensionality
in the
parallel
universes.
Quantum
Physics is
approaching.
In other
nationalities,
the
mediumistic
experiences
- in only a
different
terminology
- are
studied,
demonstrated,
and allow
precious
exchanges
with the
inhabitants
of
numberless
other
sectors of
the
extra-physical
life.
Fearful
debates
about life
outside the
Earth, and
not only in
other dense
worlds, but
on various
energetic
and
frequency
levels,
expand. And
in view of
the strictly
spiritualist
universe, it
is no longer
necessary to
speak here
only of the
context
addressed
hitherto in
responsible
books of
Kardec’s
Doctrine or
in the
mediumistic
literature,
concerning
the cities
and
spiritual
colonies of
the
invisible
spheres
adjacent to
the crust .
Much more
exists.
Multiple
worlds
reveal
themselves
to a state
of human
consciousness
that is fast
approaching
a maturation
point, which
will allow
it to
transcend
limits of
understanding
of what is
spiritual
evolution,
the vast
wealth of
life in the
Cosmos in
its most
unimaginable
forms of
manifestation.
Gradually,
and in spite
of the
beliefs or
disbeliefs
of the
reincarnated
humanity,
life follows
majestically
in the
evolutionary
influx of
beings of
Creation, on
all levels
of the
universe -
and drags
with it
everything
and
everyone.
The range of
consciousness
of the human
collectivity
gradually
expands; the
realities
interpenetrate
and reveal
themselves,
in the
absence of
the
methodical
resistance
of
materialistic
scientific
research,
restricted
to the
Cartesian
limits, and
beyond
random
hints; and
the
astonishing
growth of
the number
of mediums
and
sensitives
around the
world,
living and
discussing
it openly on
various
fronts, and
under
various
terminologies,
will soon
imply that
the old and
narrow
vision of
considering
human life
as a random,
the fruit of
chaos
without
meaning,
without a
continuous
line and
devoid of
greater
implications
and
responsibilities
– this, yes!
- will
approach the
empirical,
the absurd
and the
improbable.
It is
necessary to
consider as
a truth
that, for
decades now,
levies of
beings have
been
reincarnated
continuously,
originating
from
multiple
extradimensional
sectors.
They come to
Earth
endowed with
advanced
conscience
levels, in
comparison
to the
living of
the density
of centuries
and past
decades, and
are
therefore
prepared to
sow, also in
the material
sphere of
the planet,
the conduct
of the
necessary
naturalness
to deal with
this greater
reality of
life, of
which none
of us is
exempt.
The
evolutionary
spiritual
advance, in
this way, is
not only
characteristic
of the
material
spheres of
life, or
even only of
its
corresponding
ethereal
adjacent to
the orb. It
happens,
incessantly,
also in the
multiplicity
of cosmic
destinies to
which each
one of us
goes after
several
stays in the
matter,
obeying the
standards of
attunement
suitable for
each living
soul.
In this way,
and taking
as a certain
thing what
all the
thousands
of avant-garde minds
already
admit
peacefully,
at the
beginning of
an era of
greater
maturity of
the human
spiritual
journey, it
remains to
be seen
whether, in
the everyday
of
restricted
perceptions
of
materiality,
we act and
will act in
a compatible
way with the
unprecedented
revelations
of the
expansions
of
consciousness
going on in
increasing
order.
And on a
daily basis,
will we be
prepared to,
more and
more, “place
ourselves
above” our
main
intimate
barriers?
And, thus,
will we live
up to
happier
existential
states, in
other
spheres, and
on the sure
course of
realizing a
condition of
true
fullness, of
a spiritual
order?
The larger
and most
difficult
tests are
precisely
those that
seem to be
the minor
ones. They
are
commonplace;
they are
those that
due to being
a
commonplace,
in the
seemingly
inconsiderate
repertoire
of
day-to-day
amenities,
repeatedly
harvest us
in hazy
shows of
weakness,
smallness,
and
spiritual
immaturity.
They are the
episodes
that,
disregarded
from the
daily
routine,
surprise us
unpleasantly.
They shed
light on our
most
hardened
frailties,
disappointing
us about
ourselves,
and
confronting
our more
generous
perceptions
of what we
regard as
our best
personal
qualities.
Will we thus
be able to
place
ourselves in
the
consciousness
in which we
will live
eternally,
without
becoming
desperate in
a traffic
jam, which
robs our
exhausted
body from
hours of its
precious
rest when we
return home?
Can we stand
up in the
face of a
difficult
family or
professional
relationships
that test
our
resilience,
tolerance,
or even our
willingness
to reassess
mistakes of
concept or
conduct in a
context
involving
the
interests of
a
community?!
Or by
witnessing
the
multiplicity
of stressful
occurrences
in a large
city, with
its chronic
history of
insecurity;
before the
disrespect
of many for
the traffic
laws? By
witnessing a
chaotic,
persistent,
and
seemingly
endless
repertoire
of personal
and
collective
inaccuracies;
of clamorous
errors in
the urban
traffic
system, and
in the
social
infrastructure
of the
cities of a
continental
country in a
state still
suffering
from
development,
of
consolidating
the valuable
asset of
education in
the souls of
a people?
Will we be
able to put
ourselves up
in times of
crisis,
illness, or
the
suffering of
a loved one?
Before the
differences
of
perception
during a
simple
routine
debate,
within a
circle of
friends?
Overcoming
the
unhealthy
compulsion
of the
judgment of
others in
countless
situations,
seeking to
remember our
condition of
eternal
living that,
quite
possibly, we
have
encountered
or we may
encounter
practical
dilemmas
identical to
those
experienced
by the
targets of
our most
ruthless
criticisms?
We will be
able to put
ourselves
above, to
consider
that we are
not a
superior
exclusiveness
of a race,
social
situation,
country or
culture...
remembering,
although
intuitively,
or even
trying to
consider
only
empirically
the chance
that we
already
have, in the
vast
spiritual
past, by
those same
peoples,
ethnicities
and cultures
of the
present
moment, so
harshly
attacked in
the
transitory
characteristics
of their
diversity,
as a rule
subjected to
political
and economic
contexts
critical and
completely
unfavorable
to the
secular
development
of their
nations of
origin?!
Can we stand
up to admit
the high
chances that
we can keep
precious
love links
of the past
in these
same
cultures
then
despised,
shaped by
the
inclement
clichés of
xenophobia
of the
passing
hour? And
that, in the
future, in
this way,
can we wait
for the
flogging
remorse of
discovering,
among these
beings in
this way
mistreated
by the
transient
clamor of
self-interested
prejudices,
a former
spouse, a
son, or a
loving
mother from
other
times?!
Will we be
able,
mostly, to
put
ourselves
above, from
the global,
planetary
point of
view, to
see, as a
priority,
all human
beings as
the sons of
one God, and
transitory
belongings
of a single
race of this
world? Only
in a
diversified
process of
learning and
collective
or
individual
evolution
happening in
different
and
momentary
sectors of
space and
time?! And
yet,
shedding the
same tears
of pain, the
same smiles
of joy;
experiencing
love or
horror,
according to
the
circumstances
of more
favorable or
unfavorable
scenarios of
regions of
greater or
lesser
economic
prosperity,
or of bloody
wars,
arising from
the
political
complexity
that is
still
insoluble,
on a planet
where the
illusions of
eternal
power over
land,
material
goods, or
even
consciences,
about human
life
itself?!
The great
and
definitive
truth is
that we
bring
nothing, we
have
nothing!
We only
temporarily
practice in
successive
sectors of
life, to
develop,
reap and sow
personal and
collective
improvements;
to learn and
collect
experiences,
and so on -
carrying
with us
nothing more
than
ourselves.
Nothing but
the
capacities
and virtues
cultivated
for the best
continuity
of an
endless path
towards the
happiness
dreamed
towards the
Light - like
sunflowers
obedient to
the same
instinctive
movement
that governs
to them the
vital
function
searching
for the same
Sun.
Therefore,
it is
necessary
that we
learn the
divine art
of “putting
ourselves
up”.
Our
existence is
eternal -
whether we
want to
accept it or
not, at the
present
stage of our
understanding.
However, the
sooner we
see the
great truth,
the better
we will be
able to
realize that
the great
wave that
threatened
the vessel
in the midst
of the sea,
from much
higher in
the global
view of the
ocean, was
only a small
sinuous
movement,
impelling
travelers
forward, in
the
continuous
course of
the dance of
life in its
irresistible
yearning for
a definitive
encounter
with a state
full of love
and
happiness.
