  • On Creation and the allegedly “Astral”… (Hors d’oeuvres)
    The subject is Creation and the so-called Astral plane. This Astral plane has nothing to do with stars or constellations, and I have no idea why they named it like that. But even if the writer doesn’t agree if the godfather wishes it,  ... my dear Christ you too have to walk wearing red shoes (for those who know the relative joke).
    It is quite common nowadays, to place under the idea of ​​parallel universes, anything we don’t seem to fully understand. Your interlocutor simply mentions “It is a matter of a Parallel universe” and sends you packing.

  • Do you honestly believe what you say? I asked myself.
    Well to be totally honest, I consider it to be the most complete idea of what a human is and where he is heading to. But let's take it from the start, one step at a time.
    As beings, we are part of a set whose edges are not at all defined. This set contains not only the physical perception of things but also the paraphysics, the metaphysics, the transcendent, and recently addition, the quantum view of the whole. And this, more or less, is self-evident.
    If we wish to stay only on one of its sides, we have only ourselves to blame. 
    The key to understanding what really happens is understanding the connection between the creator and its creation on the one hand, and the analysis of our qualities on the other.

  • The myth of our mud origin!
    So, the human being is the capping stone of creation. In a very graphic way, the holy scripts explain how God took mud and created the human being. Mud, therefore, constitutes that part of the cosmic being that has to do with the Essence, that is, with the Cycle or Level of Essence. The whole course from that moment until the blow of the Divine Breath of God himself has to do with the place of origin of that special being.

  • Even this One does not exist.
    Even this One does not exist, my dear friend. I wish it were just that! But even if I accept to take up the gauntlet that you very skillfully threw to me, it still needs a lot of audacity since the above quote belongs in my opinion to the most significant thinker, poet, and philosopher of our days, to Nikos Kazantzakis. And I call him only a poet and not a writer because his books are not novels, they are poems.
    In this respect, there are two words that I personally think we need to understand by ourselves since he is gone and we cannot ask him.The word 'One' and the word 'exist' (obviously).

  • Pour passer le temps
    Do you remember me visiting you in the maternity hospital the day you were born? What am I saying?! You can not possibly remember these years. Those years while you were yourself, it was like you were not. Yes, I can say with certainty it was you the person I was holding in my hands, the one I embraced with tenderness, the reason you don’t remember any of these is simply because your memory is not you. You are something else. And of course, you are not your body cells because all of your cells have changed since that time including the very cells of your brain.

  • I came from the stars. How about you?
    Many times, we state effortlessly: “I come from the stars, and that’s where I feel that my home is!” However, what does that mean? Is it essential to know our origin to live a more fulfilling life? My personal opinion on such matters is yes. We really need to know the meaning of that and to think of a plan that can put order in our life. Of course, it is not harmful to change this plan during our life when the data are also changed. On the contrary, reforming our own plan is the only necessary condition to stay alive in the game of life and to continue alive in the journey that follows.

  • Get bang for the buck! We have heaven, and we have hell!
    Get bang for the buck! We have heaven, and we have hell!
    Let’s get serious now, there is no Paradise nor Hell. Whoever dies, is dead for good. Maybe he strolls around for a while, unknown where, and then he shows up for his final transfer.
    "I don’t know how I spend my life, my friend," he says, wanting to change Saint Peters’ mind – by the way we have to consider that there was another doorman before him since that door existed from the beginning of time - "but I have a list with a thousand signatures of my fellow humans forgiving me. May I pass?"
