HOW THE PATH WAS FORGOTTEN

Reminder on How the Path was Forgotten

One day, a calf needed to cross a virgin forest in order to return to its pasture. Being an irrational animal, it forged out a tortuous path full of bends, up and down hills.
The next day, a dog came by and used the same path to cross the forest. Next it was a sheep’s turn, the head of a flock which, upon finding the opening, led its companions through it.
Later, men began using the path: they bent down, deviating obstacles, complaining and cursing – and quite rightly so. But they did nothing to create a different route.
After so much use, in the end, the path became a trail along which poor animals toiled under heavy loads, being forced to go three hours to cover a distance which would normally take thirty minutes.
Many years passed and the trail became the main road of a village, and later the main avenue of a town. Everyone complained about the traffic, because the route it took was the worst possible one.
Meanwhile, the old and wise forest laughed, at seeing how men tend to blindly follow the way already open, without ever asking whether it really is the best choice.

You can read Paulo Coelho's book "The Valkyries" An Encounter With Angels, online at the link above.

Synopsis

This is a modern-day adventure story featuring Paulo's supernatural encounter with angels -- who appear as warrior women and travel through the Mojave desert on their motorbikes. Haunted by a devastating curse, Paulo is instructed by his mysterious spiritual master to embark upon a journey -- to find and speak to his guardian angel in an attempt to confront and overcome his dark past. The Valkyries is a compelling account of this forty day quest into the searing heat of the Mojave Desert, where Paulo and his wife, Chris, encounter the Valkyries -- warrior women who travel the desert on motorcycles, spreading the word of angels. This exotic spiritual odyssey is a rare combination of truth, myth, imagination and inspiration. Ultimately it is a story about being able to forgive our past and believe in our future.

IMPORTANCE OF SAYING NO

On the importance of “No”

Published on February 1, 2010 in News. By Paulo Coelho

“Hitler may have lost the war on the battlefield, but he ended up winning something,” says M. Halter. “Because in the 20th century, men created the concentration camp, resuscitated torture, and taught their fellow men that it is possible to close one’s eyes to the misfortunes of others.”

The most important words in any language are small words. “Yes,” for example. Love. God. These are words that are easy to utter, and they fill in empty spaces in our world.
However, there is one word – also a small one – that we find difficult to say:
“No”.

SIELUN MAISEMA - SOUL'S SCENERY

"Se joka puuttuu toisen elämäntiehen ei koskaan löydä omaansa." Paulo Coelho Kirjassaan Alkemisti.

Sinä ja Minä, me olemme vastuussa vain yhdestä ihmisestä, itsestämme.
Sinä ja Minä, me voimme muuttaa vain yhtä ihmistä, itseämme.
Sinä ja Minä, me voimme ymmärtää vain yhtä ihmistä, itseämme.
Vaikka asut jonkun kanssa, rakastat tai vihaat jotain ihmistä se ei tarkoita että sinun tulisi lainata energiaasi heille. Heillä on oma energiansa, omat päätökset, taidot, teot ja arvonsa.
Me emme tule koskaan muuttamaan ketään muuta kuin itseämme, ja kun tiedämme kuka olemme ja mitä oikeasti haluamme elämältä niin tiedämme mitä muutoksia haluamme tehdä itseemme.
Tämä muutos alkaa pienistä asioista kuten oivaltamisesta, ajattelemisesta, aidosta ajattelemisesta.

Meille jokaiselle on eri sielun maisema, joskus on vain vedettävä henkeä jotain katsottaessa ja sitä on vaikea selittää miksi tunnistamme jotain.

Olen käynyt aikaisemminkin Portugalissa, ollessani 14 vuotias ja sen rannat ovat jääneet hyvin syvästi mieleen. Siellä oli niin helppo olla, niin rauhallista, arvokasta, luonnonmahdin mukaista.
Myöhemmin, useita vuosia myöhemmin, luin Diana Cooperin kirjasta että yhdellä Arkkienkeleistä, Rafaelilla on Henkinen Asuinsija Fatimassa, Portugalissa.

Syystä tai toisesta on aina ollut kaikista läheisin Rafaelin kanssa, hän auttoi minua ensimmäisillä kanavointi kerroilla ja toi minulle uskoa itseeni energioiden parantajana.
Sielulla on maisema, voimapaikka ja kun asiaa miettii, ihan oikeasti ajattelee niin yhteys on löydettävissä.

On niin tärkeää että ajattelet, ajattelet positiivisesti, vuosi 2012 on tulossa(Talvipäivän tasaus, 21 Joulukuuta, 11:11 UT) ja se kumpaan suuntaan se suuri muutos tapahtuu on kiinni meistä. Ei tuhlata enää ajatuksia negatiiviselle vaan rauhoitutaan ja annetaan energiamme positiiviselle.

"He who messes with other person's life's direction, will never find his own." from Paulo Coelho's Book The Alkemist.

You and I, we are responsible for only one person, ourself.
You and I, we can change only one person, ourself.
You and I, we can understand only one person, ourself.
Even tho you live with someone, love or hate someone, it doesn't mean you should lend your energy to them. They have their own energy, their own choices, own decisions, skills, actions and values.
We will never change anyone except for ourselves, and when we know who we are, and what we truly want from life, we shall know what changes need to be made on ourselves.
This change starts with little things such as nsights, thinking... genuin thinking.

We all have a different scenery of soul, and sometimes when it unfoulds in front of you we need to inhale, and it's hard to express why we feel so.

I've been to Portugal before, when I was 14 years old and it's shores have stayed deeply within my mind. It was so easy to be there, it was so calm, dignified, according to the power of nature. Later, many years later, I read from Diana Cooper's book that one Archangel, Raphael had a Spiritual Retreat there in Fatima, Portugal.

For one reason or another I have always been closest with Raphael of all the Archangels, he helped me on my first Channelings, and he brought me faith in to myself as healer with energies.
Our Soul has a scenery, powerful place, and when you think of it, really think of it, the connection is there to be found.

It is so important that you think, that you think positive, year 2012 is coming (Dec 21, Winter Equanox at 11:11 GT) and which way the great change will lean, is up to us.
Lets not waste anymore thoughts to the negative, lets calm down and share our energy with the positive.

2008 A GOOD YEAR - 2008 HYVÄ VUOSI

We've all heard the saying; "If you don't have anything good to say, you shouldn't say anything." Well, read Coelho's blog entry and think about the opposite, how much good we CAN do with positive words. Human's are interesting because we can find Good in Everything.

---The power of the word

Of all the powerful weapons of destruction that man has invented, the most terrible - and the most cowardly - is the word.

Knives and firearms leave traces of blood. Bombs shake whole buildings and streets. Poisons can always be detected.

But a destructive word can provoke Evil without leaving behind it a single clue. Children are subject to years of conditioning by their parents, artists are mercilessly pilloried, women are systematically undermined by remarks made by their husbands, the faithful are kept apart from religion by those who judge themselves capable of interpreting the voice of God.

Check to see if you yourself are using this weapon. Check to see if someone is using this weapon on you. And put a stop to both.

Me kaikki olemme kuulleet sanonnan; "Jos sinulla ei ole mitään sanottavaa, älä sano mitään." No, luo Coelhon blogi viesti ja mieti sen vastakohtaa, miten paljon HYVÄÄ saamme aikaiseksi positiivisella sanoilla. Ihmiset ovat mielenkiintoisia, sillä me pystymme aina löytämään Hyvää, Mistä Hyvänsä.

Tulkattu Paulo Coelhon Päivittäisestä Blogista. Pv:21.12.2007.

---Sanan mahti

Kaikista ihmisten keksimistä tuhoavista aseista, kaikista mahtavin - ja raukkamaisin ase on - sana.

Veitset ja aseet jättäbvät veri jäljet. Pommit tärisyttävät rakennutksia ja katuja. Myrkyn voi aina tunnistaa. Mutta tuhoava sana voi kutsua pahuutta jättämättä minkäänlaisia johtolankoja. Lapsia alistetaan, johdetaan vuosia vanhempien johdosta, taiteilijat ovat armottomasti syytettyjä, naisia systemaattisesti aliarvostetaan avoimiesten kommenteissa, uskovia ihmisiä pidetään erossa uskonnosta niiden johdosta ketkä sanovat pystyvänsä kuulemaan Jumalan sanan.

Tarkista käytätkö itse tätä asetta. Tarkista käyttääkö joku tätä asetta sinua vastaan. Ja pistä stoppi molemmille.

YOU ARE WHO YOU CHOOSE TO BE

Will Smith talks a little bit of metaphysics and gives probs to Paulo Coelho for Alchemist - which just happens to be a favourite of mine as well.

You can make your own reality, your own world. You are who you choose to be, you can be who you choose to be through how you decide to react to matters, good and bad.

VALITSE - CHOOSE

"Soturi tietää olevansa vapaa valitsemaan mitä haluaa; hänen päätöksiään sanelevat rohkeus, riippumattomuus ja - ajoittain - jonkinasteinen hulluus." Paulo Coelhon kirjasta Valon Soturin Käsikirja
Oli päätös mikä tahansa ihmisen tulee löytää rohkeutta - sanoa Ei tai Kyllä. Riippumattomuutta - päästää irti materiaalisesta ja maallisesta "omaisuudestaan". Hulluutta - ottaa se askel joka muista näyttää typerältä, alkeelliselta tai väärältä. Hulluuden motiivit ovat katsojan egossa.

"Warrior knows he is free to choose what he wants; his decisions are dictated by courage, free from attachment and - at times - some measure of madness." Paulo Coelho in his book Manual of the Warrior of Light.
Which ever the choice is humans need to find Courage - to say No or Yes. Free from attachment - to let go from the material and earthy "possesions". Madness - to take the step which to others might seem stupid, primitive or wrong. The motives of madness reside in the ego of the watcher.
