An extra day has been given to us to change our life, to make our aspiration grow, to make our consecration more perfect, in short to make our life a shade better.
For those who are clear about their goal and the path they have chosen, this isolation is an opportunity to intensify their aspiration, to go within in greater depths, to rise further in our quest for God and Freedom and Truth and Light and Immortality.
It has been a great error of certain religions as well as of a strongly egocentric section of humanity to believe that God created everything for man’s pleasure and enjoyment. Rather we should say that He created all things for His delight.
We need not suffer this constant sense of a fatality that haunts our lives. We can recreate our fate each moment, rewrite the scroll of destiny, replace the script written by our trembling mind and heart with the script of the soul and thereby change a crisis, even a moment of inevitable death into a door of opportunity and a step towards victory.
It is indeed doubt and distrust, depression and despair, most of all fear that closes this inner door from where we can receive help beyond our imagination and stay always and under any and every circumstance with peace and a serene joy
In a certain sense this whole virus affair is segregating humanity into at least two distinct parts. One that will introspect through this crisis and eventually emerge stronger and wiser. Another that will only end up with more and more fear and panic and loose the opportunity of reorienting its life.
As we step aside from the whirl and vortex of everyday life, it is a chance to go still deeper into our souls, a chance to contemplate this wonderful Earth and us humanity upon it.
We have come strangely together in our splendid isolation. We are being rewired no more through the divisive intellect but the great unifier, heart. We have closed our boundaries to others but our hearts have opened wide in a common bond of sympathy and oneness.
