the modern greek goddess

Angels surround me...

Heavenly angels, often referred to as guardian angels, are mentioned numerous times in the Scriptures. Therein we learn that angels are spiritual beings created by God to serve him, and sent by God to watch over the human race, to deliver his message, to guard and protect us from danger, to do battle with other spiritual beings on our behalf.

Since the beginning of time, angels have delivered God's messages to mankind. Sometimes the messages are warnings of impending danger, sometimes instructions as to what to do in a particular situation, sometimes they are simply "there" as protection from enemy forces. Sometimes they bring joyful announcements.

Each one of us apart from the many angels that surround us and protect us we also have our own Guardian Angel looking over us.

Love Poems of Rumi

Like This Love is the Water of Life A Moment of Happiness Lovers All Through Eternity I Swear Let Go of Your Worries This is Love Love is Reckless I am a Sculptor a Molder of Form Passion Makes Old Medicine New The Beauty of The Heart

I am Only the House of Your Beloved The Springtime of Lovers Has Come The Intellectual is Always Showing Off Love Has Nothing to Do With Five Senses When the Rose is Gone and the Garden Faded Because I Cannot Sleep Ode 314 Those Who Don't Feel This Love Last Night You Left Me And Slept I Have Been Tricked by Flying Too Close Who Is At My Door? In The Arc Of Your Mallet

Love is the Water of Life

Everything other than love for the most beautiful God

though it be sugar- eating.

What is agony of the spirit?

To advance toward death without seizing

hold of the Water of Life.

A moment of Happiness

A moment of happiness,

you and I sitting on the verandah,

apparently two, but one in soul, you and I.

We feel the flowing water of life here,

you and I, with the garden's beauty

and the birds singing.

The stars will be watching us,

and we will show them

what it is to be a thin crescent moon.

You and I unselfed, will be together,

indifferent to idle speculation, you and I.

The parrots of heaven will be cracking sugar

as we laugh together, you and I.

In one form upon this earth,

and in another form in a timeless sweet land.

Lovers

O lovers, lovers it is time
to set out from the world.
I hear a drum in my soul's ear
coming from the depths of the stars.

Our camel driver is at work;
the caravan is being readied.
He asks that we forgive him
for the disturbance he has caused us,
He asks why we travelers are asleep.

Everywhere the murmur of departure;
the stars, like candles
thrust at us from behind blue veils,
and as if to make the invisible plain,
a wondrous people have come forth.

This is love: to fly toward a secret sky,

to cause a hundred veils to fall each moment.

First, to let go of live.

In the end, to take a step without feet;

to regard this world as invisible,

and to disregard what appears to be the self.

Heart, I said, what a gift it has been

to enter this circle of lovers,

to see beyond seeing itself,

to reach and feel within the breast.

The Divani Shamsi Tabriz, XIII

The Little Prince:



Little Prince is one of my favorite books ... Written by Antoine de Saint Exupery at the beginning of this century, this tale is the story of a little blond boy that meets an adult with who he will become friend, somewhere in the world...
He discovers, during a trip, adults, who will allow him to understand adults' world and life on earth. Little prince is in love with a rose, look after a sheep and reign on a small planet on the solary system .

"It is only with the heart that one can see; what is essential is invisible to the eye."

"One never ought to listen to the flowers. One should simply look at them and breathe their fragrance.
Mine perfumed all my planet. But I did not know how to take pleasure in all her grace.
This tale of claws, which disturbed me so much, should only have filled my heart with tenderness and pity."


"Grown-ups never understand anything by themselves, and it is tiresome for children to be always and forever explaining things to them."

“When you find a diamond that belongs to nobody, it is yours. When you discover an island that belongs to nobody, it is yours. When you get an idea before any one else, you take out a patent on it: it is yours. So with me: I own the stars, because nobody else before me ever thought of owning them.”

“I wonder whether the stars are set alight in heaven so that one day each one of us may find his own again…”

“One only understands the things that one tames. Men have no more time to understand anything. They buy things all ready made at the shops. But there is no shop anywhere where one can buy friendship, and so men have no friends any more. If you want a friend, tame me…”


“Then you shall judge yourself. That is the most difficult thing of all. It is much more difficult to judge oneself than to judge others. If you succeed in judging yourself rightly, then you are indeed a man of true wisdom.”

12 Laws of Karma

THE LAW OF CREATION

Life doesn't just HAPPEN, it requires our participation.
We are one with the Universe both inside and out.
Whatever surrounds us gives us clues to our inner state.
BE and DO yourself what you want to have in your life.

THE LAW OF HUMILITY

What you refuse to accept, will continue for you.
If what we see is an enemy, or someone with a character
trait that we find to be negative, then we ourselves are
not focused on a higher level of existence.

THE LAW OF GROWTH

Wherever you go, there you are.
For us to GROW in Spirit it is WE who must change and not
the people, places or things around us.
The only given we have in our lives is OURSELVES,
and that is the only factor we have control over.
When we change who and what we are within our heart, our
life changes too.

THE LAW OF RESPONSIBILITY

Whenever there is something wrong, there is something wrong in me.
We mirror what surrounds us and what surrounds us mirrors us:
we must take responsibility for what is in our life.

THE LAW OF CONNECTION

Even if something we do seems inconsequential,
it is very important that it gets done as everything in the
Universe is connected.
Each step leads to the next step and so forth and so on.
Someone must do the initial work to get a job done.
Neither the first step nor the last are of greater significance-
they were both needed to accomplish the task.
Past, Present, Future...they are all connected...

THE LAW OF FOCUS

You can't think of two things at the same time.
You should climb up a ladder on step at a time.
When you lose your focus you let in insecurities
and anger.

THE LAW OF GIVING AND HOSPITALITY

If you believe something to be true, then sometime in your life
you will be called upon to demonstrate that truth. Here is where
we put what we SAY that we have learned into PRACTICE.

THE LAW OF HERE AND NOW

Looking back to examine what was prevents us from being totally
in the HERE AND NOW.
Old thoughts, old patterns of behavior, old dreams...
Prevent us from having new ones.

THE LAW OF CHANGE

History repeats itself until we learn the lessons
that we need to change our path.

THE LAW OF PATIENCE AND REWARD

All Rewards require initial toil.
Rewards of lasting value require patient and persistent toil.
True joy follows doing what we're suppose to be doing,
and waiting for the reward to come in it's own time.

THE LAW OF SIGNIFICANCE AND INSPIRATION

You get back from something whatever
you've put into it.
The value of something is a direct result of
the energy and intent that is put into it.
Every personal contribution is also a contribution to the Whole.
Lack luster contributions have no impact on the Whole
or work to diminish it.
Loving Contributions lift up and inspire the Whole.

Among the Multitude … Among the man and woman, the multitude, I perceive one picking me out by secret and divine signs, Acknowledging none else-not parent, wife, husband, brother, child, Any nearer than I am; Some are battled-but that she is not - that one knows me. Ah, lover and perfect equal: I meant that you should discover me so, by my faint indirection; And, I when I meet you, mean, to discover you by the like in you. I do not love you as if you were salt-rose, or topaz, or the arrow of carnations the tire shoots off. I love you certain dark things are to be loved, In secret, between the shadow and the soul . I love you as the plant that never blooms, But carries in itself the light of hidden flowers; Thanks to your love a certain solid fragrance, Risen from the earth, lives darkly in my body, I love you straight forwardly, without complexities or pride; So I love you because I know no other way Than this: where I does not exist, for you, So close that your hand on my chest is my hand, So close that your eyes close as I fall asleep. ~ Pablo Nerude ~
